  • Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018
    Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018 Conforming to General Convention 2018 1 Preface Christians have since ancient times honored men and women whose lives represent heroic commitment to Christ and who have borne witness to their faith even at the cost of their lives. Such witnesses, by the grace of God, live in every age. The criteria used in the selection of those to be commemorated in the Episcopal Church are set out below and represent a growing consensus among provinces of the Anglican Communion also engaged in enriching their calendars. What we celebrate in the lives of the saints is the presence of Christ expressing itself in and through particular lives lived in the midst of specific historical circumstances. In the saints we are not dealing primarily with absolutes of perfection but human lives, in all their diversity, open to the motions of the Holy Spirit. Many a holy life, when carefully examined, will reveal flaws or the bias of a particular moment in history or ecclesial perspective. It should encourage us to realize that the saints, like us, are first and foremost redeemed sinners in whom the risen Christ’s words to St. Paul come to fulfillment, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” The “lesser feasts” provide opportunities for optional observance. They are not intended to replace the fundamental celebration of Sunday and major Holy Days. As the Standing Liturgical Commission and the General Convention add or delete names from the calendar, successive editions of this volume will be published, each edition bearing in the title the date of the General Convention to which it is a response.

This liturgical calendar, together with these introductory notes, has been compiled in accordance with the Motu Proprio Rubricarum Instructum issued by Pope B John XXIII on 25th July 1960, the Roman Breviary of 1961 and the Roman Missal of 1962. For the universal calendar that to be found at the beginning of the Roman Breviary and Missal has been used. For the diocesan calendars no such straightforward procedure is possible. The decree of the Sacred Congregation of Rites of 26th July 1960 at paragraph (6) required all diocesan calendars to conform with the new rubrics and be approved by that Congregation. The diocesan calendars in use on 1st January 1961 (the date set for the new rubrics to come into force) were substantially those previously in use but with varying adjustments and presumably as yet to re-approved. Indeed those calendars in use immediately prior to that date were by no means identical to those previously approved by the Congregation, since there had been various changes to the rubrics made by Pope Pius XII. Hence it is not a simple matter to ascertain in complete and exact detail the classifications and dates of all diocesan feasts as they were, or should have been, observed at 1st January 1961.

    Liturgical Calendar DECEMBER 2017 LECTIONARY FOR SUNDAYS: YEAR B ADVENT Advent has a twofold character: as a season to prepare for Christmas, when Christ’s first coming to us is remembered; and as a season when that remembrance directs the mind and heart to await Christ’s Second Coming at the end of time. Advent is thus a period for devout and joyful expectation. The playing of the organ and other musical instruments, and the decoration of the altar with flowers should be done in a moderate manner, as is consonant with the character of the season, without anticipating the full joy of the Nativity of the Lord. The same moderation should be observed in the celebration of Matrimony. Eucharistic Prayer 4 is not used in this Season.

    Marquette University e-Publications@Marquette English Faculty Research and Publications English, Department of 1-1-2012 Obsessing about the Catholic Other: Religion and the Secularization Process in Gothic Literature Diane Hoeveler Marquette University, [email protected] Published version. "Obsessing about the Catholic Other: Religion and the Secularization Process in Gothic Literature," in L'obsession à l'œuvre: littérature, cinéma et société en Grande-Bretagne. Eds. Jean- François Baiollon and Paul Veyret. Bourdeaux: CLIMAS, 2012: 15-32. Publisher Link. © 2012 CLIMAS. Used with permission. Obsessing about the Catholic Other: Religion and the Secularization Process in Gothic Literature Perhaps it was totally predictable that the past year has seen both the publication of a major book by Lennard Davis entitled Obsession!, as well as a new two player board game called "Obsession" in which one player wins by moving his ten rings along numbered slots. Interest in obsession, it would seem, is everywhere in high and low cultures. For Davis, obsession is both a cultural manifestation of what modernity has wrought, and a psychoanalytical phenomenon: in fact, he defines it as a recurring thought whose content has become disconnected from its original significance causing the dominance of repetitive mental intrusions (Davis 6). Recent studies have revealed that there are five broad categories of obsession: dirt and contamination, aggression, the placing of inanimate objects in order, sex, and finally religion2 Another recent study, however, claims that obsessive thoughts generally center on three main themes: the aggressive, the sexual, or the blasphemous (qtd. Davis 9). It is that last category - the blasphemous - that I think emerges in British gothic literature of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, particularly as seen in the persistent anti-Catholicism that plays such a central role in so many of those works (Radcliffe's The italian, Lewis's The Monk, and Maturin's Melmoth the Wanderer being only the most obvious).

  • College Martyrs
    TUTOR GROUP MARTYRS Class A – Ashley Blessed Ralph Ashley Ralph Ashley served as a cook at Douai College France. He went to Spain in 1590 and became a Jesuit Lay Brother. He returned to England in 1598 and served with Father Edward Oldcorne. He was captured in 1604 and was terribly tortured and executed. Class C – Clitherow Saint Margaret Clitherow Margaret Clitherow was a butcher’s wife in York. In 1574 Margaret became a Catholic and an active helper of the Douai priests. She also ran a Catholic school for her children and neighbours. Officers found vestments worn by priests in her house and so on 25th March 1586 she was crushed to death. She took a quarter of an hour to die. Her two sons became priests. Class J – Jones Saint John Jones John Jones was a Welshman. He appears in 1587 as a priest working among the Catholics in a Prison. This work was cut short when his disguise was discovered, and he was arrested and imprisoned at Wisbech Castle. However he did escape and made his way to the continent. He returned to England in 1592, and two years later was a prisoner once more at Wisbech. He was martyred on 12th July 1598. There was an hour’s delay in his execution because the hangman had forgotten his rope. Father Jones made use of time in prayer and addressing the crowd. Class L – Line Saint Anne Line Anne Line and her husband were both converts and though both were disinherited because of their faith they managed to live quite comfortably until 1586 when a priest was arrested whilst saying Mass in their house.

  • Shrewsbury: the Great West Window
    SHREWSBURY: THE GREAT WEST WINDOW Margaret Rope’s first major commission, which she designed and painted at The Priory, her home in Shrewsbury (reputedly on the kitchen table!), was the Cathedral’s Great West Window. It commemorates Bishop Samuel Webster Allen, 4th Bishop of Shrewsbury, who died in 1908 aged 64, and was unveiled at High Mass on Sunday 27th February 1910 by his successor Bishop Hugh Singleton. According to the detailed account of the occasion in the Catholic journal The Tablet the Bishop ‘drew the cords of the veil and revealed the window through which the sunlight was streaming’1. Margaret was very self-effacing: according to her brother Father Henry Rope at the unveiling she ‘contrived to find a place hidden from view behind the organ’2. First a note about the window’s name. Because of the restricted size and shape of its site the Cathedral was built on a north-south axis instead of having the usual east-west orientation. For liturgical purposes, however, we regard the main altar as being at the east end of the building and this convention was adopted in naming this window, which is at the opposite end to the altar. Geographically speaking it should be the Great South Window! The unusual orientation has the advantage of allowing it to be appreciated in all its glory for much more of the day than it could be if it was really facing west and only catching the evening sun. The six main lights are a picture gallery of British martyrs from the Romans to the Reformation.
