During this season, we turn our attention to the marvelous world that God has created and that we are called to care for and protect. September 1 happens to be the Feast of Saint Fiacre of Breuil, the priest and abbot of the seventh century who emigrated from his native Ireland to France, where he constructed for himself a hermitage together with a vegetable and herb garden, oratory, and hospice for travelers. He is the patron saint of gardeners. There is a statue of St. Fiacre in the parish house garden at St. An- drew's. ST.

Heritage Politics and Neglected Traditions: A Case-Study of Skellig Michael Máiréad Nic Craith This essay explores a case-study of World Heritage in the southwest of Ireland from an anthropological perspective with particular reference to changing relati- onships between local stakeholders, the Irish state party and UNESCO. It exa- mines the impetus for change in cultural practices at a local level and reactions to such impulses at national and international levels. Changing heritage practices at Skellig Michael reflect greater community involvement in the protection of heritage at local levels, as well as an evolving understanding of heritage in an international context. Moreover, the case-study illustrates the strong impact of ICOMOS (Inter- national Council on Monuments and Sites) in continuing to guide the state party in Ireland and its willingness to listen to local actors and experts. 1 World Heritage Sites in Ireland World Heritage status is highly prized. Apart from the international legitimacy and universality it confers on the value of a site, it is also viewed as a guarantor of au- thenticity or “global cultural currency” (Kaschuba 2008: 37).

AUGUST 29, 2021 DOERS OF THE WORD The second reading for today begins a ive-week series of selections from James, a letter that is classiied among the so-called “catholic” (or universal) epistles because they are addressed to a general audience rather than to one particular community. Today’s text offers important advice for Christians of every generation. God is irst cited as the author of all gifts, and in particular, reference is made to the gift of baptism by which we have been made the “first fruits” of the new creation. What follows is advice based on a very Jewish under- standing of the “word” as an active force, operative in the world. We are reminded that unless we, too, become “doers” of the word, our claim to faith is empty. Today and in subsequent weeks the author reminds us that it is equally important to do the “works” of love, for example, by caring for the “orphans and widows in their afliction.” Copyright © J.

A Mystery of Belonging: Original Ownership of the Portland State University Book of Hours Shirleanne Ackerman Gahan Many famous French Books of Hours were commissioned by kings, queens, and other members of the nobility. These patrons owned beautifully crafted Books of Hours that have been the subject of much scholarly research. Towards the end of the fifteenth century, people of lesser social status, such as clerics, merchants, and civil servants were also able to acquire Books of Hours.1 Their books were often “less carefully designed,” with fewer illuminations, and purchased on the open market of Paris, which was the center of book production during this time.2 Sometimes bourgeois patrons wrote their names in their Books of Hours as a sort of record keeping for births, baptisms, marriages, and deaths.3 Determining patronage of bourgeois Books of Hours becomes a complex task for historians when there are no identifying marks within the book.

  • On Some Diseases Bearing Names of Saints
    ON SOME DISEASES BEARING NAMES OF SAINTS. Robert Fletcher, M.D. Columbia and Bristol, M.R.C.S. Late Principal Assistant Librarian, Surgeon-General's Office, Washington, D.C., U.S.A. ^'hile the history of medicine has been written with diligence and research in various languages, and in some instances in a Portentous number of volumes, there are still many unexplored byways which may lead to discoveries of interest, though they 111 aV be of no striking importance. The folk-lore of different Peoples, popular superstitions in regard to disease, allusions to Medicine in the old chroniclers, poets and dramatists, have c?ntributed something of value to the history of medicine, and *? a knowledge of the estimation of the physician in the popular ^ind. Among these outlying subjects for research the association of diseases with the names of the early saints and Martyrs of the Christian Church offers a field which has been ^ut little explored. I have been accustomed for many years to make notes of allusions in this direction, and the quantity thus obtained is really surprising. I have made no search for ^esethese references, butb may say of them as Falstaff said of ^?tspur's revolt? " Rebellion lay in his way, and he found it." ^ few remarks upon the general subject, with illustrations from s?ttie of the more prominent diseases which have been thus Pr?vided with names, will, I trust, prove not uninteresting. The printed works of the hagiographers, such as the Aurea ^enda, the Catalogus Sanctorum of Peter de Natalibus, Alban ^utler's Lives of the Saints, the more recent work of Baring- J?uld, and above all that monument of pious industry and GSearch, the great Bollandist compilation, the Acta Sanctorum, ^hich has now reached to nearly seventy-five folio volumes, L 296 DR.

  • Saint Fittick – Some Linguistic Light?
    Saint Fittick – Some Linguistic Light? Colm Ó Baoill King’s College, Aberdeen Torry, now a southern suburb of Aberdeen, was linked to the city only by a ferry until a bridge across the river Dee was built in 1887. The principal modern church in Torry is that of Saint Fittick, and a little further to the east (Grid ref. NJ 963 049), surrounded by fields just above the Bay of Nigg, there is an old ruined building, with attached graveyard, which was also once Saint Fittick’s church, until it was abandoned in 1829. Who was Saint Fittick? Mo Futag On three small-scale maps in Gerhard Mercator’s Atlas of 1613 (Mercator 1613: between pp. 57 and 62), a small circle to the east of Torry is marked S. Mofutak. The hand-drawn map of Lower Deeside made by the Reverend Timothy Pont between c. 1583 and 1596 (Pont Map 11) has a place-name which may be read as S:Mofytacs. ness at the same point: it appears to be the name of the headland now known as Girdleness. The Calendar of Camerarius (1631, 203; cf. Forbes 1872, 243) has the following entry for 26 December: Sanctus Mofutacus Confessor. Celebris habebatur in Aberdonensi Dioec- esi, extatque non procul à Torrey insignis Ecclesia sancto Monfutaco dicata [Saint Mofutacus, confessor, used to be considered famous in the Diocese of Aberdeen, and there exists, not far from Torrey, a distinguished church which is dedicated to Saint Monfutacus] (Camerarius ‒ David Chambers, d. 1641 ‒ was an alumnus of King’s College, Aberdeen.) It must surely be that the saint so named was known in the Scots-speaking Aberdeen area, right down to the seventeenth century or later, by the Gaelic- looking name Mo Futag (the -n- in Monfutaco is doubtless simply a typesetter’s error).
