The Investiture Contest and the Rise of Herod Plays in the Twelfth Century John Marlin Since the publication of O. B. Hardison’s Christian Rite and Christian Drama in the Middle Ages,1 E. K. Chambers’s and Karl Young’s evolutionary models for liturgical drama’s development2 have been discarded. Yet the question remains of accounting for what Rosemary Woolf calls its “zig-zag” development,3 its apogee being the twelfth century. The growth and decline of Christmas drama is particularly intriguing, as most of Young’s samples of the simple shepherd plays, the Officium Pastores, come from the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, while the earliest Christmas play he documents, from an eleventh-century Freising Cathedral manuscript, is a complete play about Herod and the Magi, the Officium Stellae.

  • The Transformations of a Buddhist Symbol of Evil
    ABSTRACT MALLEABLE MāRA: THE TRANSFORMATIONS OF A BUDDHIST SYMBOL OF EVIL by Michael David Nichols Despite its importance to the legend of the Buddha’s enlightenment and numerous Buddhist texts, a longitudinal, diachronic analysis of the symbol of Māra has never been done. This thesis aims to fill that gap by tracing the Evil One’s development in three spheres. Chapter one deals with Māra in the Nikāya texts, in which the deity is portrayed as a malign being diametrically opposed to the Buddha and his teachings. Chapter two discusses how that representation changes to ambivalence in certain Mahāyāna sūtras due to increased emphasis on the philosophical concepts of emptiness and non-duality. Finally, chapter three charts the results of a collision between the two differing representations of Māra in Southeast Asia. The concludes that the figure of Māra is malleable and reflects changes in doctrinal and sociological situations.

As regards the executive power he can exercise personally or through another person. Ad- ministrative power becomes the area for the exercise of the executive power, including in the administration of temporal goods of the diocese and of other Keywords: public juridical persons subject to him. In performing a good administration of the temporal goods of the Church, a diocesan Bishop needs to comply with diocesan Bishop, pertinent canonical norms as well as to collaborate with respective council or temporal goods, persons concerned to avoid the abuse of power or misuse of temporal goods. administrator, The matter in question is discussed in the view of canonical analysis. This administration research aims at obtaining canonical assessments to the authority of dioce- san Bishop in administering Church’s properties according to their proper purposes. The first part elaborates in short the juridical power exercised by the diocesan Bishop. It is followed by the second part, namely discussion on the temporal goods of the Church. As the focal point, the third part treats the authority of diocesan Bishop over the temporal goods and then a concise con- clusion is presented. The Catholic Church which coalesces temporal goods which belong to particular from a divine and a human element (LG, Church.

  • Sede Vacante Patronage Is Exercised
    SECTION 2, VACANCIES IN SUFFRAGAN SEES AND OTHER ECCLESIASTICAL OFFICES MEASURE 2010 (APPOINTMENTS BY THE CROWN DURING CERTAIN VACANCIES) CROWN BENEFICES (PARISH REPRESENTATIVES) MEASURE 2010 Section 2 of the Vacancies in Suffragan Sees and Other Ecclesiastical Offices Measure 2010 (“the Vacancies Measure”) and the whole of the Crown Benefices (Parish Representatives) Measure 2010 (“the Parish Representatives Measure”) come into force on 1st January 2011. The former makes changes to the way in which the Crown’s sede vacante patronage is exercised. That latter provides for PCCs of Crown benefices to appoint parish representatives whose approval must be sought before the Crown may present a priest for institution. Section 2, Vacancies in Suffragan Sees and Other Ecclesiastical Offices Measure – statutory delegation of the Crown’s sede vacante patronage 1. Diocesan bishops, in right of their sees, exercise various types of patronage. This includes rights of patronage in respect of certain parochial benefices. It also includes the right to appoint to certain residentiary canonries and the appointment of archdeacons. 2. When a diocesan see is vacant The Queen is guardian and custodian of the temporalities of the see. The temporalities of a see include the rights of patronage that belong to the see. (They formerly also included episcopal estates but these are now vested in the Church Commissioners and no longer form part of the temporalities; but rights of patronage still do.) 3. Therefore, when a diocesan see is vacant, the rights of patronage belonging to that see are exercisable by Her Majesty as guardian of the temporalities. That means that in the event of an ecclesiastical office in respect of which the bishop has the right of patronage being vacant during a vacancy in see, the Crown presents to that vacant office.1 This is known as the Crown’s sede vacante patronage.

    LONGER CANON LAW INTRODUCTION PAGE FOR DOWNLOADING (material taken from the CLSA commissioned The Code of Canon Law, A Text and Commentary, edited by James Coriden, Thomas Green and Donald Heintschel (Paulist Press, New York: 1985), pp. 1-22). I. The Historical Development of Law in the Church. There are basically 5 historical periods in the history of the development of law in the Church. These are as follows: 1. The Early Christian Community (1-8 centuries). The early Christian Church, at least in Jewish sectors, incorporated the laws of the Old Testament into its life and practices. In the Old Testament, there were laws, which focused on the worship of the Jewish people, laws concerned with dietary regulations, and moral laws given by God for his people. In the earliest writings of the New Testament, laws appear. St. Paul, the first writer of the New Testament, presents lists of moral and disciplinary directives to be observed by all believers. He speaks at some length on marriage, the giving of directives for the moral life, and on amending the Jewish ritual practices of the early Christians, so that Christianity would not simply remain a Jewish sect. The early Church councils made determinations that were fairly specific and localized. They sought to offer specific solutions to specific problems now being faced by the growing Church. Many early canonical decisions and legislation was made from local, regional and provincial councils, such as the Synod of Elvira (in about the year 300). After the Edict of Constantine (313), the Church began another stage of development, since it was now free to grow and expand beyond the borders of the Roman Empire, without fear of persecution.

BOOK V: TEMPORALITIES UNDER THE REVISED CODE OF CANON LAW REVEREND JAMES K. MALLETT, S.T.L., M.CH.A. INTRODUCTION My topic is Book V of the Code of Canon Law, which concerns the temporal goods of the Church. My perspective is that of a Church admin- istrator with nine years of experience involving both the canonical and the civil legal systems. My task is to present an overview of Book V with special reference to those canons which would be of particular interest to diocesan attorneys. This presentation is divided into three sections: after a brief summary of Book V, I will address those canons which receive or "canonize" certain provisions of civil legislation, and then review the ca- nons which provide for the use of civil legislation in order to achieve the purposes given in the canons. SUMMARY OF BOOK V. Book V of the Code contains fifty-seven canons divided into four sec- tions.

The clergy, members of the governing board and a majority group of its members (collectively, the defendants) resigned their membership in the Episcopal Church. When they did so, the Bishop of the Diocese of San Diego (San Diego Diocese) determined that the remaining loyalist members of St. John's Parish (collectively, individual plaintiffs) constituted the true membership of St. John's Parish, the resigned dissident members were no longer qualified to serve as members of St.

  • Waiting and the Temporalities of Irregular Migration
    Waiting and the Temporalities of Irregular Migration This edited volume approaches waiting both as a social phenomenon that proliferates in irregularised forms of migration and as an analytical per- spective on migration processes and practices. Waiting as an analytical perspective offers new insights into the complex and shifting nature of processes of bordering, belonging, state power, exclu- sion and inclusion, and social relations in irregular migration. The chapters in this book address legal, bureaucratic, ethical, gendered, and affective dimensions of time and migration. A key concern is to develop more the- oretically robust approaches to waiting in migration as constituted in and through multiple and relational temporalities. The chapters highlight how waiting is configured in specific legal, material, and socio-cultural situa- tions, as well as how migrants encounter, incorporate, and resist temporal structures. This collection includes ethnographic and other empirically based mate- rial, as well as theorizing that cross-cut disciplinary boundaries. It will be relevant to scholars from anthropology and sociology, and others interested in temporalities, migration, borders, and power. Christine M.

  • The Temporalities of International Migration: Implications for Ethnographic Research
    ICS Occasional Paper Series Volume 5, Number 1 http://doi.org/10.4225/35/57a969210f1a0 The Temporalities of International Migration: Implications for Ethnographic Research Dr Shanthi Robertson University of Western Sydney February 2014 Editors: Professor David Rowe and Dr Reena Dobson Assistant Editor: Dr Michelle Kelly Publisher: Institute for Culture and Society University of Western Sydney Locked Bag 1797, Penrith NSW 2790, Australia Tel: +61 2 9685 9600 Fax: +61 2 9685 9610 Email: [email protected] Web: www.uws.edu.au/ics The Temporalities of International Migration: Implications for Ethnographic Research Shanthi Robertson Institute for Culture and Society, University of Western Sydney Abstract Contemporary processes of international migration are often heterogeneous, circular and varied in terms of stages and durations, with the boundaries between permanent and temporary mobility becoming increasingly porous and contingent. These processes are driven by systems of governance that privilege ‘just-in-time’ immigration and gradations of partial and temporary membership over full citizenship. In light of this tension, there is emerging theoretical and empirical interest in the temporalities of international migration. Yet, methodologies that continue to work under assumptions of migration as temporally linear and spatially unidirectional movements from home to host country fail to capture much of the complexity of these processes. This paper addresses some of the implications of this complexity, focussing in particular on the temporalities of migration in the context of ethnographic research methods. It argues that traditional ethnographic approaches, such as interviews and participant observation, are limited in their ability to capture the dynamic temporalities of international migration. Using a conceptual framework of ‘time tracks’ (temporal paths of social behaviour) and ‘timescales’ (scales of social and political temporal ordering), the paper then discusses some of the core methodological issues around the temporal dimensions of contemporary migration.
