A Short Historical Review by Fr. Lawrence Hyde
LAURENCE HYDE O.S.B. A SHORT HISTORICAL REVIEW OF THE SYLVESTRINE MONKS IN CEYLON from 1845 to 1920 FOREWORD Several years ago during a visit to the Benedictine Abbey of New Norcia, Western Australia, a monk who had visited Sri Lanka in 1967, gave me as a gift a photocopy of a manuscript in his own possession. The title of the manuscript is «Short Historical Review of the Sylvestrine Monks in Ceylon from 1845 to 1920». It was an essay of a then-young Sylvestrine monk, Laurence Hyde, written in 1920 (1). In the Introduction (Chapter I) he had explained the reasons for his essay. «In undertaking to compile this short brochure on the work of the Benedictine Monks of the Sylvestrine Congregation in Ceylon I have been actuated by two motives - the first, to commit in writing what must very soon pass out of the realm of actual tradition and become only a memory of the past, second, to encourage the young gene-rations of my brethren to emulate the great deeds of their fathers». When Hyde wrote his Historical Review in 1920, the chief players mentioned in this essay had died: Mgr. Bonjean had passed away 18 years earlier, in 1902, and Mgr. Pagnani ten years later, in 1911. Yet, the memories of the 1880s were still a painful reminiscence for some of the surviving missionaries such as the Sylvestrine Augustine Pancrazi and the secular priest Pius Fernando, who had through lived the vicissitudes of the Colombo vicariate at that time. Hyde continued his Historical Review: «The older generation of missionaries must in due course of nature succumb to the inevitable fate that awaits all human kind, and the older generation of Christians, who have been witnesses of their labours for the salvation of souls are fast dying out. -
SH 90 Septimo
«Septimo Iam» and the Order of Friars Minor «of the Leonine Union» Noel Muscat OFM One hundred years ago, on 4th October 1909, Pope Saint Pius X1 published the Apostolic Letter Septimo iam, on the occasion of the 700th anniversary of the approval of the Franciscan Rule. The Letter, however, does not specifically deal with the historical event it commemorated, namely the approval of the Forma vitae of Saint Francis by Innocent III in 1209. Rather, it dwells upon a thorny problem brought about by the turn of events during the last decades of the 19th century, which culminated in the unification of the Ordo Fratrum Minorum de Regularis Observantia (Order of Friars Minor of the Regular Observance) on 4th October 1897, with the publication of Leo XIII’s Bulla Felicitate quadam, whereby the four autonomous families of the same Order under the obedience of one Minister General, namely the Observants, Riformati, Alcantarines and Recollects, were to unite under one family simply known as Ordo Fratrum Minorum, Order of Friars Minor. A detailed history of these events has already been published in 1994 in the doctoral dissertation of Maurice Carmody.2 We shall be basing the historical account of what happened on this scholarly work, but at the same time we shall take into consideration the contents of Septimo iam, as well as those of another Apostolic Letter published shortly afterwards by Pius X, entitled Paucis ante diebus, on 1st November 1909. The unification of the Order was not an easy task. Many factors and persons had contributed to make its implementation very difficult both for Pope Leo XIII as well as for the Minister General Luigi da Parma (1889-1897), the architects of the process of unification. -

Amrhein was the founder of the Benedictine Mission Society, based at St Ottilien near Munich, where the youngsters were being educated. He was a proponent of Catholic involvement in the German colonial project and the fledgling mission had already sent its first missionaries to German East Africa the previous year. During the Assembly Mbange and Dagwe were photographed alongside Ludwig Windthorst, the prominent politician and leader of the Catholic Centre Party, who, according to reports, was to take on the role of their godfather.iii Following the establishment of an overseas empire in 1884 he became increasingly vocal in calling for Catholics to be granted permission to missionize in the new German territories. -
Benedict XV's Diplomacy in Greater Syria (S
THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA Facing the Emergence of the Modern Middle East: Benedict XV’s Diplomacy in Greater Syria (Syria, Lebanon, and Palestine) 1914-1922 A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of the School of Theology and Religious Studies Of The Catholic University of America In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor of Philosophy © Copyright All Rights Reserved By Agnes Aupepin de Lamothe-Dreuzy Washington, D.C. 2012 Facing the Emergence of the Modern Middle East: Benedict XV’s Diplomacy in Greater Syria (Syria, Lebanon, and Palestine) 1914-1922 Agnes Aupepin de Lamothe-Dreuzy, Ph.D. Director: Jacques M. Gres-Gayer, STD, Ph.D. Pope Benedict XV’s pontificate (1914-1922), misunderstood by his contemporaries and neglected by recent scholarship, coincides with the reshaping of the Middle East, from the beginning of World War One to the assignment of Mandates to France and Britain over Syria and Palestine. This study examines Benedict XV’s diplomacy in Greater Syria. Its unique aspect resides in the combination of two approaches. Benedict’s main priority was to ensure the survival of Christians in the Middle East, providing them with a dynamic ecclesiological structure. The pontiff completed and institutionalized the traditional ecclesiological approach in favor of unionism, with the goal to strengthen the ecclesial structures of the Eastern churches and equip them with solid legal foundations. This ecclesiological approach was integrated in Benedict XV’s global geo-political vision that shifted away from its past Eurocentric vision and was combined with an anticipation of the decolonization era. Benedict completed these guiding principles with a policy of emancipation of the missionary world from the bondage of colonial powers, preparing the Church for an active role in the world. -

Documents from the Vatican Secret Archives Concerning the Pontificate of Benedict XV the Positiones of the Consistorial Congregation
Le pontificat romain dans l’époque contemporaine The Papacy in the Contemporary Age sous la direction de | edited by Giovanni Vian Documents from the Vatican Secret Archives Concerning the Pontificate of Benedict XV The Positiones of the Consistorial Congregation Alejandro M. Dieguez (Archivio Segreto Vaticano, Città del Vaticano, Italia) Abstract This brief overview sheds light on certain aspects of Benedict XV’s pontificate: the condi- tions of dioceses and the bishops’ pastoral governance; the monitoring of religious practices and the particular needs of specific regions and nations; and the supervision of disciplinary matters regarding preaching and the clergy’s participation in politics or social life (i.e. dancing parties or membership at associations such as the Knights of Columbus). Through a review of primary sources, this contribu- tion demonstrates a growing attention toward the non-European world manifested by the Church’s concern for emigrants as well as through an interest in Protestant proselytism. Furthermore, specific records indicate a gradual process of modernization taking place within the Church: for example, the projection of films in churches or the clergy’s use of modern means of transportation. Summary 1 Introductory Remarks – 1.1 The Activities of the Consistorial Congregation According to the Areas of Its Competence. – 1.2 The Personal Positions and the Scrupulous Search for Suitable Candidates for the Episcopacy. – 1.3 The Positions on the State of the Dioceses and on the Pastoral Governance of the Bishops. -

Three years are analysed in this study: 1897, birth of Zionism; 1904 visit of the Zionist leader Theodor Herzl to the Pope in Rome; 1917, Balfour Declaration. Particular attention has been paid to the 1897, crucial moment for the political European Anti- semitism. For this year have been examined also some local intransigent Catholic newspapers. Principal aim of this research is highlighting how the Holy See reacted to the Zionist project of settling a Jewish State in Palestine.

The End of the Right of Exclusion Conclave of 1903 and the New Legislative of Pope Pius X
The End of the Right of Exclusion Conclave of 1903 and the New Legislative of Pope Pius X Drahomír Suchánek HISTORICAL BACKGROUND Pope Leo XIII, the first pope in modern history who from the beginning of his pon‑ tificate leads the Catholic Church in a new situation following the loss of the Pa‑ pal States, died on 20th July 1903. The subsequent papal conclave, whose scandalous course would go down in the history of the 20th century, represented one of the last instances of the clash of European powers in the period before World War I. The Col‑ lege of Cardinals comprised several distinctive factions, each of which considered not only purely ecclesiastical interests, but also the political atmosphere in their home countries and their own ideas about the direction of the Apostolic See at the begin‑ ning of the 20th century. From the very beginning, State Secretary and confidant of the deceased Pope, Mariano Rampolla del Tindaro, who was a Sicilian aristocrat of extraordinary abil‑ ities and corresponding self ‑confidence, was a crucial figure of the election.1 Under his leadership, the Catholic Church sought to restore its weakened international po‑ sition after a period of cultural struggle and the loss of territorial sovereignty. The policy of bringing the Holy See closer to French Republicans seemed to be the best way (ralliément); however, it failed to yield the desired results. A discontent with the official course of the Catholic Church’s policy was gradually growing, particularly due to its excessive focus on political issues and the side ‑lining of ecclesiastic matters.
