Download or read book A Listening Community written by Aquinata Böckmann and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2015 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new book by Sister Aquinata Böckmann discusses the Prologue and chapters 1, 2, and 3 of the Rule of St. Benedict. In a lectio regulae she plumbs the depths of Benedict's vision. Listen, the first word of the Prologue, is a keyword that describes the main stance of the individual monastic, the superior, and the entire community. Listening to the Scriptures and in them to Christ guides individuals and the community on how to "run on the way of God's commandments" toward the goal of communal life in and with Christ. The first three chapters of the Rule concretize the principles of this communal spirituality of listening: the importance of a rule and a pastor for maintaining the community's attentiveness to life; the superior's responsibility to listen to individuals within the community; and the mutual listening between leader and community members, regardless of their age. As in her earlier books Sister Aquinata proves to be a true guide into the spirit of Benedict's Rule, which provides sound principles for listening in common in a community of life.

Download or read book Order and Disorder The Poor Clares between Foundation and Reform written by Bert Roest and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2013-01-08 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Order and Disorder: The Poor Clares between Foundation and Reform, Bert Roest provides an up-to-date and comprehensive history of the Poor Clares from their early beginnings until the sixteenth century. With recourse to the available secondary literature and a wealth of primary sources, this book shows how the early history of the Poor Clares cannot be reduced to Franciscan initiatives, and that the institutionalization of the order was characterized by prolonged conflicts and a series of important papal interventions. The work also provides insight in the expansion of the order, the complexities of religious reforms, and the significant cultural production of the women involved.

Download or read book Serek ha Ya ad 1QS in Dialogue with Mimetic Theory written by Kamilla Skarström Hinojosa and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2024-02-12 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What holds a society together, what makes it dissolve, and how is a society in crisis restored? These are the questions explored in this study, which brings the Serek ha-Yahad (IQS) into dialogue with mimetic theory. It thus aims to shed light on the forms of life and thought in the yahad, as well as on their underlying reason and purpose. From the analysis emerges an image of a community that not only has a strong awareness of the mechanisms of violence, but also of its cure. Its hierarchical organization and strict regulations are motivated by a perceived dissolution of contemporary society. By subordinating personal desire to community discipline and by establishing a system of differentiation, the yahad seeks to provide a model of how a society ought to be functioning.

Download or read book Hildegard of Bingen written by Charles Burnett and published by Warburg Institute. This book was released on 1998 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers a comprehensive view of Hildegard of Bingen's manifold achievements, her intellectual background and her reception in the later Middle Ages. It brings together, with full documentation, the contributions of an international group of medievalists, from diverse disciplines, to the colloquium held at the Warburg Institute on 17- 18 November 1995. Three of the essays are devoted to the cultural landscape in which Hildegard lived and worked - her relation to the writings of the Fathers, to the schools of her own time, and to the prophetic tradition. Two others examine how, after Hildegard's death, she came to be revered as saint and prophet, and two shed new light on the transmission of her manuscripts and of the illuminations that accompany her visions. Each of the remaining essays focuses on what is new and individual in aspects of Hildegard's astonishingly varied work: in her sacred music and poetry, her astronomy, botany and medicine, and in her unprecedented uses of allegory. The volume both pays tribute to the ninth centenary of Hildegard's birth (1098) and complements the first major study of Hildegard in our century - that of Hans Liebeschütz - which the Warburg Library, still in Hamburg, published in 1930. Contents - Peter Dronke - - The Allegorical World- Picture of Hildegard of Bingen: Revaluations and New Problems - Albert Derolez - - The Manuscript Tradition of Hildegard of Bingen's Writings: The State of the Problem - Madeline Caviness - - Hildegard as the Designer of the Illustrations to her Works - Charles Burnett - - Hildegard in England: A Note on Hildegard's Texts in the Library of the Austin Friars in York - Angela Carlevaris - - Ildegarda e la Patristica - Robert Murray - - Prophecy in Hildegard - Constant Mews - - Hildegard and the Schools - Charles Burnett - - Hildegard of Bingen and the Science of the Stars - Danielle Jacquart - - Hildegarde et la physiologie de son temps - Laurence Moulinier - - Abbesse et agronome: Hildegarde et le savoir botanique de son temps - Walter Berschin - - Eine Offiziendichtung in der Symphonia Hildegards von Bingen: Ursula und die Elftausend Jungfrauen (carm. 44) - John Stevens - - The Musical Individuality of Hildegard's Songs: A Liturgical Shadowland - Barbara Newman - - Three- Part Invention: The Vita S.
