From his earliest years, Mundelein was educated by religious orders. Between school and a devoutly Catholic family, the Church made a distinct impression on the young man. He excelled in his studies at St. Nicholas’ Parochial School and was able to enroll at De La Salle Academy in New York. Upon completion of his degree, he was offered a commission to Annapolis but turned it down in favor of a higher calling. Mundelein’s dedication to study and commitment to the Church attracted the attention of prominent members of the Brooklyn clergy like Bishop McDonnell. With his support, Mundelein earned a chance to study at St. Vincent’s Archabbey outside of Beatty, Pennsylvania. By 1892, he was enrolled at the Urban College of Propaganda in Rome, Italy. After the requisite three years at the North American College, Mundelein was still one year younger than the canonical age for ordination. Bishop McDonnell again intervened and secured a dispensation for Mundelein’s early ordination to the priesthood. The dispensation was only granted because Mundelein had already proved his dedication to the Church through diligent study and active involvement in the college. Ordained by Bishop McDonnell in 1895, Mundelein then served a Lithuanian church in Williamsburg before being appointed rector of the Cathedral Chapel Queen of All Saints. At the young age of 26, he became Chancellor of Diocese of Brooklyn. Mundelein earned a series of accolades and appointments as a result of his deft mediation of the diocese’ many parishes and ethnic groups and his continued dedication to Church values. In 1903, he became censor of the Liturgical Academy. In 1906, he became the Right Reverend Monsignor Mundelein and a domestic prelate to the Pope’s household. In 1907, he became a member of the ancient academy of Arcadia. In 1908, he was granted the degree of Doctor of Divinity by the College of Propaganda. On February 21, 1909, he was installed as the Auxiliary Bishop of Brooklyn by Bishop McDonnell at the age of 37. 1915 was a year of momentous change for Mundelein as he was appointed Archbishop of Chicago and succeeded Archbishop Quigley. Focusing his early work on education and youth projects, Mundelein instituted school boards, boys and girls clubs, and Knights of Columbus sponsored delinquent youth programs. Moving on to charities, higher education, and religious education, Mundelein inspired positive change in the organization of the Catholic Church in Chicago. He was able to navigate the political and business environments of Chicago with his winning attitude and demonstrated commitment to hard work. His personal relationships with many of the notable families of the Midwest also secured him a measure of influence in these arenas. These skills only increased his ability to financially provide for the archdiocese through fundraising and savvy budgeting. Further demonstrating his commitment to education and religious life, Mundelein built a seminary in Libertyville—the town would soon change its name to Mundelein in his honor—that would become specially recognized by Rome. The seminary was granted the special privilege to grant outstanding students Doctorates of Sacred Theology. In 1934, 29 years after his ordination to the priesthood, George Mundelein was elevated to Cardinal. The ceremony took place in Rome in early May of 1924. Upon his return to Chicago, the city overwhelmed him with congratulatory celebrations and gifts. The new Cardinal almost immediately set plans in motion for an international Eucharistic Congress to be hosted in Chicago, and, in the summer of 1926, those plans became reality. Thousands of Catholics gathered to participate in the ceremonies and the congress’s success did much for Cardinal Mundelein’s reputation. In 1928, he selected Father Bernard Sheil as his auxiliary bishop, and together they continued to Page 2 establish organizations and projects that supported youth and social justice in the city. He continued to speak out against injustice both locally and internationally—including against Hitler and his policies—and in support of those doing good works—like Mother Cabrini. On October 2, 1939, George Cardinal Mundelein died at the age of 67 leaving a legacy in the Catholic Church and the city of Chicago.

Administrative History Mundelein College was founded by the Sisters of Charity of the Blessed Virgin Mary (BVMs) in response to a call by Cardinal George Mundelein for a Catholic women’s college on the North Side of Chicago. For 60 years, Mundelein College offered its students a comprehensive Catholic liberal arts education. The women who were educated at Mundelein came from many ethnic and socio-economic groups and were often the first females in their families to attend college. The college was led through many changes and social movements in the Catholic Church and nation by renowned educator Sister Ann Ida Gannon, BVM, who served as president from 1957 to 1975.

The Monument Question in Late Habsburg Austria A Critical Introduction to Max Dvořák’s Denkmalpflege Jonathan Blower Doctor of Philosophy The University of Edinburgh 2012 Abstract The present thesis is a critical introduction to a body of writings on heritage conservation by the Czech-born art historian Max Dvořák (1874–1921). From 1905 onwards, Dvořák was both professor of art history at the University of Vienna and Conservator General at the state institution responsible for heritage conservation in Austria: the ‘Royal and Imperial Central Commission for the Research and Preservation of Artistic and Historical Monuments’ (est. 1850). His published and archival texts on the subject are presented here for the first time in English translation. In this sense, the thesis follows the model of existing scholarship on the visual arts in Vienna around 1900, namely the combined English translations and critical introductions to the writings of Camillo Sitte (Collins & Collins, 1986), Otto Wagner (Mallgrave, 1988) and Alois Riegl (Forster & Ghirardo, 1982).

    The Jesuits and the Catholic University of Canada at Kingston

    CCHA Historical Studies, 58 (1991), 57-77 The Jesuits and the Catholic University of Canada at Kingston by Terence J. FAY, SJ When the Jesuits accepted the direction of Regiopolis College and its University Charter in 1931, they pondered the possibility of opening the Catholic University of Canada at Kingston.1 The idea of an independent national Catholic university was not new to Catholics in central Canada. Ottawa College after it received a university charter in 1889 strove to fulfil this role, and St. Francis Xavier University at Antigonish in 1923 made “a firm commitment to become an autonomous, multifaculty university.”2 Many Catholics were also aware that the Catholic University of America in Washington DC was founded in 1888 as an independent national university for American Catholics. Could a similar university be opened in Kingston for central Canadian Catholics? Let me start this study of the Jesuits and the Catholic University of Canada at Kingston with a preliminary consideration of Catholic university education at the beginning of the 1930s. In addition to the two English-speaking Catholic universities mentioned above, there were sixteen Catholic colleges affiliated in a variety of different patterns: four in the maritime provinces, seven in central Canada, and four on the western prai- ries.3 Financially they were managed with little regular funding, and the renewal of their university affiliations was often difficult.
