  • Ancient Origins of Lordship
    THE ANCIENT ORIGINS OF THE LORDSHIP OF BOWLAND Speculation on Anglo-Saxon, Anglo-Norse and Brythonic roots William Bowland The standard history of the lordship of Bowland begins with Domesday. Roger de Poitou, younger son of one of William the Conqueror’s closest associates, Roger de Montgomery, Earl of Shrewsbury, is recorded in 1086 as tenant-in-chief of the thirteen manors of Bowland: Gretlintone (Grindleton, then caput manor), Slatebourne (Slaidburn), Neutone (Newton), Bradeforde (West Bradford), Widitun (Waddington), Radun (Radholme), Bogeuurde (Barge Ford), Mitune (Great Mitton), Esingtune (Lower Easington), Sotelie (Sawley?), Hamereton (Hammerton), Badresbi (Battersby/Dunnow), Baschelf (Bashall Eaves). William Rufus It was from these holdings that the Forest and Liberty of Bowland emerged sometime after 1087. Further lands were granted to Poitou by William Rufus, either to reward him for his role in defeating the army of Scots king Malcolm III in 1091-2 or possibly as a consequence of the confiscation of lands from Robert de Mowbray, Earl of Northumbria in 1095. 1 As a result, by the first decade of the twelfth century, the Forest and Liberty of Bowland, along with the adjacent fee of Blackburnshire and holdings in Hornby and Amounderness, had been brought together to form the basis of what became known as the Honor of Clitheroe. Over the next two centuries, the lordship of Bowland followed the same descent as the Honor, ultimately reverting to the Crown in 1399. This account is one familiar to students of Bowland history. However, research into the pattern of land holdings prior to the Norman Conquest is now beginning to uncover origins for the lordship that predate Poitou’s lordship by many centuries.

  • Remembering English Saints in 2020
    Introduction: Remembering English Saints in 2020 LOUISE J. WILKINSON University of Lincoln PAUL WEBSTER Cardiff University he Association of English Cathedrals designated 2020 a national ‘Year of Cathedrals, Year of Pilgrimage’, with the intention of encouraging greater public recognition of the enduring spiritual T 1 and historical importance of these iconic buildings as places of worship. There are forty-two Anglican cathedrals in the United Kingdom, many of which are medieval structures. The anniversary years 2019 and 2020 have been important for many of these buildings and for the saints’ cults associated with them. In Lichfield, 2019 marked the 1,350th anniversary of Chad’s consecration as bishop of Mercia. The year 2020 is a special year of pilgrimage for Durham cathedral, coinciding with the launch of six new northern saints’ trails inspired by the lives of Aidan, Cuthbert, Oswald, Wilfrid, Hild and Bede. In Canterbury, 2020 marks the 800th anniversary of the Translation of St Thomas Becket, and the 850th anniversary of Becket’s martyrdom. As Becket was a Londoner by birth, his anniversaries are also being commemorated in the English capital by special events and exhibitions. In Lincoln, 2020 is the 800th anniversary of the canonisation of Hugh of Avalon, bishop of Lincoln. In Hereford, 2020 marks the 750th anniversary of the canonisation of Thomas Cantilupe, bishop of Hereford. At Salisbury, 2020 is the 800th anniversary of the laying of the cathedral’s first foundation stone, following its transfer from Old Sarum. While not a medieval cathedral, Bury St Edmunds, the abbey dedicated to St Edmund king and martyr, is marking 1,000 years since its foundation by King Cnut.

  • Pain, Identity, and Emotional Communities in Nineteenth-Century English Convent Culture Carmen M
    ‘Why, would you have me live upon a gridiron?’: Pain, Identity, and Emotional Communities in Nineteenth-Century English Convent Culture Carmen M. Mangion I Introduction Polemicist and social critic Ivan Illich has outlined the importance of culture in furnishing means of experiencing, expressing, and understanding pain: ‘Precisely because culture provides a mode of organizing this experience, it provides an important condition for health care: it allows individuals to deal with their own pain.’1 The history of pain, approached through phenomenology (the lived experience of pain focused on subjectivity) and the various rhetorics of pain (narratives, rituals, symbols, etc.), can bring into sharp relief, as Illich has inferred, how pain is culturally derived and embedded in a society’s values and norms. Thus, the context of pain is critical as society and culture infuses it with a multiplicity of meanings. This essay explores nineteenth-century Catholic interpretations of pain, utilizing biography to examine how and why corporeal pain functioned as a means of both reinforcing Catholic beliefs in the utility of pain and of coping with pain. This does not necessarily imply that bodily pain was encouraged, enthusiastically welcomed, or self-inflicted. This article explores unwanted pain; not the self-inflicted pain of mortification or the violent pain of martyrdom that are often featured in medieval or early modern histories of pain. It will examine this unwanted pain in a defined space, the convent, and through a particular source, the biography of Margaret Hallahan (1803– 1868), founder of the Dominican Sisters of St Catherine of Siena, written by the future prioress, convert Augusta Theodosia Drane (1823–1894; in religion, Mother Francis Raphael) in 1869.

Goizueta, Ph.D. Committee Member ii ABSTRACT HONOR AND CARITAS: BARTOLOMÉ DE LAS CASAS, SOLDIERS OF FORTUNE, AND THE CONQUEST OF THE AMERICAS Name: Costello, Damian Matthew University of Dayton Advisor: Dr. William L. Portier This dissertation - a postcolonial re-examination of Bartolomé de las Casas, the 16th century Spanish priest often called “The Protector of the Indians” - is a conversation between three primary components: a biography of Las Casas, an interdisciplinary history of the conquest of the Americas and early Latin America, and an analysis of the Spanish debate over the morality of Spanish colonialism. The work adds two new theses to the scholarship of Las Casas: a reassessment of the process of Spanish expansion and the nature of Las Casas’s opposition to it. The first thesis challenges the dominant paradigm of 16th century Spanish colonialism, which tends to explain conquest as the result of perceived religious and racial difference; that is, Spanish conquistadors turned to military force as a means of imposing Spanish civilization and Christianity on heathen Indians.

  • Venerable Louis of Granada
    VENERABLE LOUIS OF GRANADA Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain helped Columbus to discover t his continent. These same sovereigns gave the deathblow t o the well-nigh immortal foe of Ch ristendom in the conquest of Granada by breaking the power of the Moor and expelling him from Europe. To populate the land vacated by the Moor they offe red Spanish settlers many inducements and privileges. Among other adventurers enticed by s uch prospects came a young couple from the extreme northwestern Province of Galicia bearing the name of Sarria. They were of ancient and honest Christian origin, but they were poor. Consequently when Sarria, the head of the family, died, his wife and her tender child were dependent on charity. This little child was the future Louis of Granada and under these circumstances was he born in 1504, the year that records also the birth of the great Do­ minican Pope, St. Pius V. Louis quarrelled with a playmate outside the Castle walls of the Duke, the governor of that territory. The Duke inter­ fered and, greatly impressed by Louis' able defence of himself and by his winning disposition undertook the youth's education. Thus was he enabled to learn Latin with the Duke's own sons. Although worldly honors now loomed up before him, an interior light shone brighter, and Louis unhesitatingly followed the in­ spiration. It was a Dominican vocation. He felt keenly the separation from his poor mother, but he did not forget her. As a novice he daily set aside a half of hi s own meagre dinner and sent it to her.

Switzerland: Palgrave Macmillan. 254 pages, isbn: 978-3-319- 40375-5 (hbk). £89.99. William Temple (1881–1944) is universally acknowledged as the leading thinker and leader of the Christian world, outside the Roman Catholic Church, in roughly the second quarter of the twentieth century. Temple was a colossal figure in several arenas of public discourse: philosophical theology, apologet- ics, devotional writing, Christian social thought and socio-economic reform. Appointed Bishop of Manchester in his late thirties, he went on to become Archbishop of York and, all too briefly, Archbishop of Canterbury (1942–44). He was the dominant presence, influence and source of energy in the Church of England in the twenty years before his untimely death, in harness, in his early sixties. The Church of England, the Anglican Communion and the wider church were stunned and dismayed by his loss. It was said at his funeral: ‘Today we are burying the hopes of the Church of England.’ He had burned himself out in selfless service.
