    Pius Ix and the Change in Papal Authority in the Nineteenth Century

    ABSTRACT ONE MAN’S STRUGGLE: PIUS IX AND THE CHANGE IN PAPAL AUTHORITY IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY Andrew Paul Dinovo This thesis examines papal authority in the nineteenth century in three sections. The first examines papal issues within the world at large, specifically those that focus on the role of the Church within the political state. The second section concentrates on the authority of Pius IX on the Italian peninsula in the mid-nineteenth century. The third and final section of the thesis focuses on the inevitable loss of the Papal States within the context of the Vatican Council of 1869-1870. Select papal encyclicals from 1859 to 1871 and the official documents of the Vatican Council of 1869-1870 are examined in light of their relevance to the change in the nature of papal authority. Supplementing these changes is a variety of seminal secondary sources from noted papal scholars. Ultimately, this thesis reveals that this change in papal authority became a point of contention within the Church in the twentieth century.

    1 Gregor Mendel's Meeting with Pope Pius IX

    1 Gregor Mendel’s meeting with Pope Pius IX: the truth in the story. 2 3 4 Peter J. van Dijk 5 [email protected] 6 Keygene N.V., 7 Agro Business Park 90 8 6708 PW Wageningen, The Netherlands 9 1 10 Abstract 11 According to Hugo Iltis, Mendel had made a journey to Italy in the 1860s, not knowing when or for 12 what purpose. Mendel might then have also paid a visit to Pope Pius IX, and become acquainted 13 with the “later” Cardinal Teodolfo Mertel. Oswald Richter had already discovered that Mendel had 14 received a 3-months pass for the Italian states in mid-August 1863. In this article, I put forward new 15 evidence and arguments that it is very likely that Mendel took part in a three weeks’ organized 16 group tour to Italy in September 1863. This tour was organized by the same entrepreneurs as 17 Mendel’s group tour to the International Exhibition in London a year earlier. In Rome, the group was 18 received by the Pope. Furthermore, there were stays of several days in Naples and Florence. 19 Because Mertel had already become Cardinal four years before this trip, this part of the story about 20 Mertel cannot be correct. I argue that it is likely that the high dignitary whom Mendel met was Karl 21 von Hefele, professor of church history, spokesman for the group at the meeting with the Pope. It is 22 striking that in 1862 and 1863, Mendel could make expensive international trips, which were only 23 affordable to the societal elite.

  • Politics of the "Our Father" and of the Holy Father

    Politics of the "Our Father" and of the Holy Father

    Politics of the "Our Father" and of the Holy Father Don Bosco's Mediation in Church-State Affairs By Arthur J. Lenti, SDB Introduction he reader of any popular biography of Don Bosco, even a full length one, will probably come across only the merest reference to his T activity as mediator between Church and state in Italy in the times of their estrangement following the liberal revolution, the unification and the taking of Rome. And yet such mediating activity is attested for a period of some 20 years (1858-1878) and appears as a quite extraordinary feature in the life of the humble and otherwise politically uninvolved priest of Valdocco. Don Bosco's efforts as a "negotiator" were chiefly concerned with filling vacant diocesan sees, the bishops of which had either been expelled or imprisoned, or had died. The appointment of bishops, therefore, was an important objective of this activity. At a later period the principal purpose of such mediation was to obtain the so-called Exequatur after appointment. This was a state-issued permit that enabled bishops to enter their sees and obtain possession of assets and revenues, held by the government, now needed to run the diocese-the so-cailed "temporalities." It is the purpose of this article to tell the story of Don Bosco's efforts to have bishops appointed and to mediate related matters between the Holy See and the Italian government. The Biographical Memoirs have given some attention to this activity, especially in its later phases. Father Francesco Motto in a series of articles and Father Francis Desrarnaut in his biography of Don Bosco have written critically on the subject.

He negotiated for aid with the Irish, the Scots, and the French, all enemies of England and also intrigued with prominent English lords.

    Iii. Interventions to Solve the Matter of Bishops

    III. INTERVENTIONS TO SOLVE THE MATTER OF BISHOPS’ ‘TEMPORALITIES’ (1872-1874) The Law of Guarantees on 13 May 1871 and decrees applying to this required that for newly appointed bishops to enter into possession – the so-called temporalities – they had to present the Minister with the original decree of appointment and formally ask for the exequatur to be granted. This act, in the Holy See’s judgement, implied recognising the Kingdom of Italy which came into being in 1861, and included part of the Papal States ‘illegally’ taken from the Pontiff. Since the Holy See was not ready to give such recognition, even indirectly, to the new Kingdom, and since the Government did not intend to step back from its position, the bishops were between a rock and a hard place, between the intransigence of both Minister and Vatican. So they had to be content with a papal subsidy, and those who took steps not authorised by the Holy See (Montecassino, Saluzzo) were reprimanded and punished. A number of compromises were attempted, some cases were solved, but the situation remained blocked. Don Bosco in 1872, on the basis of certain oral understandings with ministers in previous years, intervened once more by his personal initiative on both sides, but without getting much of a hearing at the Vatican. In the two years that followed the Vatican seemed to step back from its absolute intransigence, hypothetically accepting another compromise, that of the government being presented, by whatever authority, even a public notary, with a copy of the bull of appointment from the original posted up in the sacristy.

  • The Question of Governance and Ministry for Women1

    The Question of Governance and Ministry for Women1

    Theological Studies 68 (2007) THE QUESTION OF GOVERNANCE AND MINISTRY FOR WOMEN1 PHYLLIS ZAGANO The possibility of formal governance and ministry for women hinges on their admission to the clerical state, which is demonstrably possible by their readmission to the diaconate. Historical exegesis supports the Catholic Church’s present ability to ordain women deacons, and recent official discussion suggests that the readmission of women to the ordained diaconate may be on the horizon. This article parses the terms “governance” and “ministry” and provides some conclusions about the ways the terms have been used recently. HEN FATHER MARCO VALENTINI, on March 2, 2006, rose to ask his W bishop a question, he may not have expected the answer he re- ceived. The 39-year-old priest told his bishop, and the other assembled priests of his diocese, that he had recent and positive experience of the ministry of women—both married and religious—to priests in crisis. It set him to thinking, he said: why not put women side by side with men in the governance of the Church? Every church decision is taken from the male point of view, Father Valentini continued, but women work at the charis- matic level through prayer and at the practical level as well. Recall, he said, how Catherine of Siena brought the pope back to Rome. Perhaps, Valen- tini continued, women’s point of view at the institutional level could help not only priests in difficulty, but all priests in decision making. PHYLLIS ZAGANO received her Ph.D. from the State University of New York at Stony Brook and is now Senior Research Associate-in-Residence at Hofstra Uni- versity, Hempstead, N.Y.
