Medieval Church History 19 FinshedReferences, Movies Medieval Church History 20 Thomas Aquinas(1225-1274) Medieval Church History 21 Thomas Aquinas(1225-1274) Thomas Aquinas, also Thomas of Aquin or A quino, was an Italian Dominican priest, and an i mmensely influential philosopher and theologian i n the tradition of scholasticism, within which he is also known as the "Dumb Ox", "Angelic Doctor", " Doctor Communis", and "Doctor Universalis". "Aquinas" is the demonym of Aquino: Thomas ca me from one of the noblest families of the Kingdo m of Naples; his parents held the titles "Count of A quino" and "Countess of Teano." Medieval Church History 22 Thomas Aquinas(1225-1274) He was the foremost classical proponent of n atural theology, and the father of Thomism. His influence on Western thought is consider able, and much of modern philosophy was co nceived in development or refutation of his id eas, particularly in the areas of ethics, natural law, metaphysics, and political theory. Medieval Church History 23 Thomas Aquinas(1225-1274) Thomas is held in the Roman Catholic Church to b e the model teacher for those studying for the pries thood, and indeed the highest expression of both n atural reason and speculative theology. The study of his works, according to papal and ma gisterial documents, is a core of the required progr am of study for those seeking ordination as priests or deacons, as well as for those in religious formati on and for other students of the sacred disciplines (Catholic philosophy, theology, history, liturgy, an d canon law). Medieval Church History 24 Thomas Aquinas(1225-1274) The works for which he is best-known are the Sum ma theologiae and the Summa Contra Gentiles. One of the 35 Doctors of the Church, he is consider ed the Church's greatest theologian and philosoph er. Pope Benedict XV declared: "This (Dominican) Or der ... acquired new luster when the Church declar ed the teaching of Thomas to be her own and that Doctor, honored with the special praises of the Pon tiffs, the master and patron of CatholicMedieval schools." Church History 25 Thomas Aquinas(1225-1274) Medieval Church History 26 Thomas Aquinas(1225-1274) Five Proofs For The Existence of God Medieval Church History 27 Summa Theologica Medieval Church History 28 Summa Theologica The Summa Theologiæ (written 1265–127 4 and also known as the Summa Theologic a or simply the Summa) is the best-known work of Thomas Aquinas (c.1225–1274). Although unfinished, the Summa is "one of th e classics of the history of philosophy and one of the most influential works of Western liter ature." Medieval Church History 29 Summa Theologica It is intended as an instructional guide for mo derate theologians, and a compendium of all of the main theological teachings of the Catho lic Church. It presents the reasoning for almost all points of Christian theology in the West. The Summa's topics follow a cycle: the existe nce of God; Creation, Man; Man's purpose; C hrist; the Sacraments; and backMedieval to God. Church History 30 Summa Theologica Among non-scholars the Summa is perhaps most famo us for its five arguments for the existence of God know n as the "five ways" (Latin: quinque viae). The five way s occupy one and a half pages of the Summa's approxi mately three thousand five hundred pages. Throughout the Summa Aquinas cites Christian, Musli m, Hebrew, and Pagan sources including but not limite d to Christian Sacred Scripture, Aristotle, Augustine of Hippo, Avicenna, Averroes, Al-Ghazali, Boethius, John of Damascus, Paul the Apostle, Dionysius the Areopagi te, Maimonides, Anselm, Plato, Cicero, and Eriugena. Medieval Church History 31 Summa Theologica The Summa is a more structured and expanded versio n of Aquinas's earlier Summa contra Gentiles, though these works were written for different purposes, the Summa Theologiæ to explain the Christian faith to beginning theology students, and the Summa contra G entiles to explain the Christian faith and defend it in h ostile situations, with arguments adapted to the intended circumstance s of its use, each article refuting a certain belief of a spe cific heresy. Medieval Church History 32 Summa Theologica Aquinas conceived the Summa specifically as a wo rk suited to beginning students: "Because a doctor of catholic truth ought not only t o teach the proficient, but to him pertains also to i nstruct beginners. as the Apostle says in 1 Corinthi ans 3: 1-2, as to infants in Christ, I gave you milk t o drink, not meat, our proposed intention in this w ork is to convey those things that pertain to the Ch ristian religion, in a way that is fitting to the instru ction of beginners." Medieval Church History 33 Summa Theologica It was while teaching at the Santa Sabina studium provinciale, the forerunner of the Santa Maria sop ra Minerva studium generale and College of Saint Thomas which in the 20th century would become t he Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas, Angelicum, that Aquinas began to compose the Su mma. He completed the Prima Pars in its entirety and ci rculated it in Italy before departing to take up his s econd regency as professor at the University of Par is (1269–1272). Medieval Church History 34 Summa Theologica The Summa is composed of three major parts, each of which deals w ith a major subsection of Christian theology. First Part (in Latin, Prima Pars): God's existence and nature; the c reation of the world; angels; the nature of man Second Part: First part of the Second Part (Prima Secundae, often abbreviated Pa rt I-II): general principles of morality (including a theory of law) Second part of the Second Part (Secunda Secundae, or Part II-II): m orality in particular, including individual virtues and vices Third Part (Tertia Pars): the person and work of Christ, who is the way of man to God; the sacraments; the end of the world. Aquinas le ft this part unfinished. Medieval Church History 35 Summa Theologica Each part contains several questions, each of which revolves a round a more specific subtopic; one such question is "Of Chris t's Manner of Life." Each question contains several articles phrased as interrogativ e statements dealing with specific issues, such as "Whether Ch rist should have led a life of poverty in this world?" The Summ a has a standard format for each article. A series of objections to the (yet to be stated) conclusion are gi ven; one such objection, for example, is that "Christ should ha ve embraced the most eligible form of life...which is a mean be tween riches and poverty." Medieval Church History 36 Summa Theologica A short counter-statement, beginning with the phrase "sed contra" ("on the contrary"), is then given; this stat ement almost always references authoritative literatur e, such as the Bible or Aristotle.

  • Papal ‘Empire’ in the Later Eleventh and Twelfth Centuries
    Super gentes et regna Super gentes et regna: papal ‘Empire’ in the later eleventh and twelfth centuries Benedict G. E. Wiedemann The imperial ambitions of the eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth century popes are well-known. Pope Gregory VII (1073-85) wrote in his Dictatus papae that only the pope had the right to use the imperial insignia.1 The popes who followed Gregory VII continued to ‘imperialise’ the papacy: Bernard of Clairvaux would accuse his protégé, Pope Eugenius III (1145-53), of being ‘the heir not of Peter, but of Constantine’.2 One collection of essays about Pope Innocent III (1198-1216) posed the question as to whether he was ‘Vicar of Christ or Lord of the World?’3 If we accept this narrative of imperialisation – and there have been criticisms of it – then we must ask further questions: what exactly was the nature of papal ‘imperium’ over the kings of Christian Europe? What, in the later eleventh and twelfth centuries, was the ‘constitutional’ position of secular rulers vis-à-vis the pope? 1 Das Register Gregors VII., ed. Erich Caspar, 2 vols (Berlin, 1920-3), 1: 201-8 (no. 2.55a) [henceforth: Greg. Reg.]. 2 Ian S. Robinson, The Papacy, 1073-1198: Continuity and Innovation (Cambridge, 1990), 18-26.

Pope Urban’s vision of a unified Church quickly turned into an effort to Latinize the East through the Crusades. Although Pope Innocent III had instructed crusaders to not go to Constantinople (4th, 1204), they took mules into the sanctuary of Hagia Sophia to carry away plunder. And Innocent then said that the crusade was a “just judgement of God”. He began the rebaptizing and reordination of Eastern clergy who converted, and inconsiderately installed a Venetian nobleman as the Latin Patriarch of Constantinople. Later, the West began blaming the East for the crusades’ failures. The following years were devastation in both East and West. The East was under constant Turkish attack as the Byzantine Empire diminished. In the West nationalism gave rise to independent countries and kings, who sought to control Rome. Two events brought great devastation to all of Europe – the Hundred Years’ War between England and France, and the Bubonic Plague. The historian S.E. Ozmont said, “As never before, not even during the century of the Roman Empire’s collapse, Western people walked through the valley of the shadow of death”.

  • Modern Alternative Popes*
    Modern Alternative Popes* Magnus Lundberg Uppsala University The Second Vatican Council (1962-1965) is arguably the most important event in modern Catholicism, and a major act on the twentieth-century religious scene at large. On several points, the conciliar fathers made changes in how the Catholic Church perceived the modern world. The language in the decrees was different from earlier councils’, and the bishops opened up for ecumenism and interreligious dialogue, seeing at least “seeds of truth” in other religious traditions. The conciliar fathers also voted in favour of liberty of religion, as meaning something more than the right to practise Catholic faith. A very concrete effect of the Council was the introduction of the New Mass Order (Novus Ordo Missae) in 1969 that replaced the traditional Roman rite, decreed by Pius V in 1570. Apart from changes in content, under normal circumstances, the new mass should be read in the vernacular, not in Latin as before. Though many Catholics welcomed the reforms of Vatican II, many did not. In the period just after the end of the Council, large numbers of priests and nuns were laicized, few new priest candidates entered the seminaries, and many laypeople did not recognize the church and the liturgy, which they had grown up with. In the post- conciliar era, there developed several traditionalist groups that criticized the reforms and in particular the introduction of the Novus Ordo. Their criticism could be more or less radical, and more or less activist. Many stayed in their parishes and attended mass there, but remained faithful to traditional forms of devotions and paid much attention to modern Marian apparitions.

For most of her life, except when she was away on a mission of one kind or another, she stayed at home with her family in Siena. Born on March 25, 1347, she died at the age of 33 on April 29, 1380. One of the closest friends of Catherine most affected by her death was a young Sien- ese poet, Neri dei Pagliaresi. A single stanza from the elegy he wrote at the time of her death offers a vivid, intimate portrait of his much-missed friend: Tell me, who will save me now from an evil end? Who will preserve me from delusions? Who will guide me when I try to climb? Who will console me now in my distress? Who will ask me now: “Are you not well?” Who will persuade me that I shall not be damned?1 † ST.

  • The Catholic Latin Vulgate's Introduction of Verbo in the 4Th
    G.A. RIPLINGER CATHOLICS CHANGING GOD’S NAME 1 THE HOLY BIBLE says, “and his name is called The Word of God” Or in Spanish this would say, “y su nombre es llamado la Palabra de Dios.” (Rev. 19:13). Or is it, “y su nombre es llamado el Verbo de Dios.” parring over synonyms in translation can be difficult. Is the child pretty, lovely, attractive, or beautiful? A case, giving particulars, must be made for SS each word. But changing the pretty child’s name from Pamela to Verna is something that is not up for debate. Yet modern Spanish Bibles have done just that, changing the “name” that Jesus Christ “is called.” This “ought not to be done.” How did this happen? Wouldn’t you know that Pope Novatian changed it in a tract and later Jerome arranged its place in the Latin Bible. This article will document this, citing Latin and Greek scholars who publish in juried professional journals. Now there are piles, which stretch for miles, of moth eaten Latin manuscripts and bibles stained with this name. 2 JJOOHHNN 11::11 in the SSPPAANNIISSHH BBIIBBLLEE:: A Comprehensive History of the Latin/Spanish Words for ‘Word’ Sermo/Palabra VS.
