  • Fiestas and Fervor: Religious Life and Catholic Enlightenment in the Diocese of Barcelona, 1766-1775
    FIESTAS AND FERVOR: RELIGIOUS LIFE AND CATHOLIC ENLIGHTENMENT IN THE DIOCESE OF BARCELONA, 1766-1775 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Andrea J. Smidt, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Dale K. Van Kley, Adviser Professor N. Geoffrey Parker Professor Kenneth J. Andrien ____________________ Adviser History Graduate Program ABSTRACT The Enlightenment, or the "Age of Reason," had a profound impact on eighteenth-century Europe, especially on its religion, producing both outright atheism and powerful movements of religious reform within the Church. The former—culminating in the French Revolution—has attracted many scholars; the latter has been relatively neglected. By looking at "enlightened" attempts to reform popular religious practices in Spain, my project examines the religious fervor of people whose story usually escapes historical attention. "Fiestas and Fervor" reveals the capacity of the Enlightenment to reform the Catholicism of ordinary Spaniards, examining how enlightened or Reform Catholicism affected popular piety in the diocese of Barcelona. This study focuses on the efforts of an exceptional figure of Reform Catholicism and Enlightenment Spain—Josep Climent i Avinent, Bishop of Barcelona from 1766- 1775. The program of “Enlightenment” as sponsored by the Spanish monarchy was one that did not question the Catholic faith and that championed economic progress and the advancement of the sciences, primarily benefiting the elite of Spanish society. In this context, Climent is noteworthy not only because his idea of “Catholic Enlightenment” opposed that sponsored by the Spanish monarchy but also because his was one that implicitly condemned the present hierarchy of the Catholic Church and explicitly ii advocated popular enlightenment and the creation of a more independent “public sphere” in Spain by means of increased literacy and education of the masses.

Catalonia-specific foods and festivals are two such expressions that have been mobilised as national symbols, and which I will consider in this paper. I will discuss the role that food plays in festive occasions in the Catalan calendar, including secularised traditional holidays and Catholic feast days, newly created festivals and fairs centred on foods, and finally the three national days (23rd April, 24 June and 11th September). In doing so, I will also tease out other, related themes in Catalan cultural identity today, including the feelings of connectedness with a historic past, land and landscape, the championing of seasonality through culinary events, and Catalonia’s gastronomic calendar.

  • The Sweetness of Death
    2 THE SWEETNESS OF DEATH A pleasurable aspect of any annual holiday, in Mexico or elsewhere, is the inevit- able presence of special foods. One of the most impressive features of the Day of the Dead is the prominence of unusual delicacies, which can be purchased only at this time of year—or even of ordinary, everyday food prepared and arranged in special fashion. The Day of the Dead features food in two ritual contexts: (1) placed on gravesites during the cemetery vigil, and (2) displayed on home altars. Home altars are open to the view of family and anyone who visits the family. When placed on the home altar, all ofrenda objects are on public display, and families, for their own benefit and that of others, try to arrange offerings as artistically as possible. In the case of the graveside ofrenda, food and drink tend to be transported to the cemetery in covered baskets and containers, where they remain out of public view throughout the cemetery vigil. Whether openly displayed or covered beneath cloth, Day of the Dead food is called ofrenda, or offering, because it is set out as a commemorative gift to the deceased relatives who are being honored on this occasion. In both cases, too, the symbolic significance of the food is transformed through its display in a ritual context. An orange resting on the kitchen table is placed there to be peeled and eaten. Put the same orange on a home altar, or leave it nestled among other fruit in a covered ceramic bowl on top of a relative’s grave, and it becomes a sacred object.
