Throughout Advent Mary has accompanied us, she who “traveled to the hill country in haste” (Lk. 1:39), immediately after the Annunciation, humbly awaiting her Son. Together with Joseph, her spouse, “[they] went up from Galilee” to Bethlehem for the census. The Lord would be born in a stable for animals “because there was no room for them in the inn.” The all powerful Creator of heaven and earth who governs the universe and measures out time, the “Son of the Most High” to whom “the Lord God will give the throne of David and he will reign forever” is wrapped in swaddling clothes and laid in a manger (Lk. 2:7). We recall the feelings of tenderness and affection of St. Paul of the Cross when, during the procession of Christmas Midnight Mass, he gazed upon the image of the Christ Child, bound in swaddling clothes. It was similar to his experience of contemplating the picture that he had in his room of the Child Jesus sleeping on the cross.

Portier, Ph.D. In its analysis of mystical body of Christ theology in the twentieth century, this dissertation identifies three major streams of mystical body theology operative in the early part of the century: the Roman, the German-Romantic, and the French-Social- Liturgical. Delineating these three streams of mystical body theology sheds light on the diversity of scholarly positions concerning the heritage of mystical body theology, on its mid twentieth-century recession, as well as on Pope Pius XII’s 1943 encyclical, Mystici Corporis Christi, which enshrined “mystical body of Christ” in Catholic magisterial teaching. Further, it links the work of Virgil Michel and Louis-Marie Chauvet, two scholars remote from each other on several fronts, in the long, winding French stream.

It it well known unto all men, and especially to You, Venerable Brothers, with what great care and pasto- ral vigilance Our Predecessors, the Roman Pontiffs, have discharged the Office entrusted by Christ Our Lord to them, in the Person of the Most Blessed Peter, Prince of the Apostles, have unremittingly discharged the duty of feeding the lambs and the sheep, and have diligently nour- ished the Lord’s entire flock with the words of faith, im- bued it with salutary doctrine, and guarded it from poi- soned pastures. And those Our Predecessors, who were the assertors and Champions of the august Catholic Re- ligion, of truth and justice, being as they were chiefly solicitous for the salvation of souls, held nothing to be of so great importance as the duty of exposing and condemn- ing, in their most wise Letters and Constitutions, all her- esies and errors which are hostile to moral honesty and to the eternal salvation of mankind, and which have fre- quently stirred up terrible commotions and have dam- aged both the Christian and civil commonwealths in a disastrous manner.

There are numerous other links / references found in the “Endnotes” of this document to assist in facilitating your understanding and research on this issue. Introduction My name is Jeremy Austin. From 2011 to 2018 I benevolently volunteered to work with and on behalf of the purported “Catholic” sedevacantist organization known as Most Holy Family Monastery (MHFM); which is owned and operated by the Dimond brothers who reside in Fillmore, NY. I made initial contact with MHFM via e-mail and corresponded after that, on a regular basis, with one of their monks named Jerome Torres. During my time with MHFM my primary task focused on translating their written material from English into French and creating / editing French version related videos. All of this work for MHFM commenced after I had first created, on my own volition, the website la- foi.fr. At the time I was sincerely and deeply involved in the evangelical activism of promulgating what I firmly held to be the one and only traditional faith necessary to obtain salvation.

  • ABSTRACT Augustinian Auden: the Influence of Augustine of Hippo on W. H. Auden Stephen J. Schuler, Ph.D. Mentor: Richard Rankin
    ABSTRACT Augustinian Auden: The Influence of Augustine of Hippo on W. H. Auden Stephen J. Schuler, Ph.D. Mentor: Richard Rankin Russell, Ph.D. It is widely acknowledged that W. H. Auden became a Christian in about 1940, but relatively little critical attention has been paid to Auden‟s theology, much less to the particular theological sources of Auden‟s faith. Auden read widely in theology, and one of his earliest and most important theological influences on his poetry and prose is Saint Augustine of Hippo. This dissertation explains the Augustinian origin of several crucial but often misunderstood features of Auden‟s work. They are, briefly, the nature of evil as privation of good; the affirmation of all existence, and especially the physical world and the human body, as intrinsically good; the difficult aspiration to the fusion of eros and agape in the concept of Christian charity; and the status of poetry as subject to both aesthetic and moral criteria. Auden had already been attracted to similar ideas in Lawrence, Blake, Freud, and Marx, but those thinkers‟ common insistence on the importance of physical existence took on new significance with Auden‟s acceptance of the Incarnation as an historical reality. For both Auden and Augustine, the Incarnation was proof that the physical world is redeemable. Auden recognized that if neither the physical world nor the human body are intrinsically evil, then the physical desires of the body, such as eros, the self-interested survival instinct, cannot in themselves be intrinsically evil. The conflict between eros and agape, or altruistic love, is not a Manichean struggle of darkness against light, but a struggle for appropriate placement in a hierarchy of values, and Auden derived several ideas about Christian charity from Augustine.
