Download or read book From Trent to Vatican II written by Raymond F. Bulman and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2006-06-15 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second Vatican Council was convened by Pope John XXIII between 1962 and 1965. It marked a fundamental shift toward the modern Church and its far-reaching innovations replaced or radically changed many of the practices, rules, and attitudes that had dominated Catholic life and culture since the Council of Trent in the sixteenth century. In this book a distinguished team of historians and theologians offers an impartial investigation of the relationship between Vatican II and Trent by examining such issues as Eucharistic theology, liturgical change, clerical reform, the laity, the role of women, marriage, confession, devotion to Mary, and interfaith understanding. As the first book to present such a comprehensive study of the connection between the two great Councils, this is an invaluable resource for students, theologians, and church historians, as well as for bishops, clergy, and religious educators.

Book excerpt: Volume two of this two-volume set includes the decrees of the ecumenical councils from Trent to Vatican II. Of particular interest to Roman Catholic historians and theologians, as well as anyone interested in the development of Christian thought and doctrine, this volume presents the decrees in their original language and in English translation. These decrees represent the authoritative distillation of Christian tradition which itself is bound together with scripture "in a close and reciprocal relationship" so that the two "form a single sacred deposit of the word of God, entrusted to the church." The original text is a reproduction of the brilliant edition by G. Alberigo and others of the decrees Conciliorum Oecumenicorum Decreta, which provides for the first time a reliable critical text for all the ecumenical councils. The English translation faces each page of the original text and is the first rendering into English of all these decrees taken together. The translators have used inclusive language throughout to emphasize the continuity of conciliar documents. This volume includes authenticated texts and their English renderings for the Councils of Trent, Vatican I, and Vatican II. The text of each council features an introduction, bibliography, and various commentaries and explanatory notes. Additionally, ten comprehensive indices allow for referencing across several categories such as Biblical verse, proper names, and chronology.

Download or read book When Bishops Meet written by John W. O'Malley and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catholic councils are meetings of bishops. In this unprecedented comparison of the three most recent meetings, John O'Malley covers over 450 years in one volume and examines the councils' most pressing and consistent concerns: questions of purpose, power, and relevance in a changing world. By offering new, sometimes radical, even troubling perspectives on councils, When Bishops Meet provides an analysis of the evolution of the church itself. The Catholic Church today is shaped more by the historical arc starting from Trent in the sixteenth century than by Vatican II alone. The roles of popes, laymen, theologians, and others have varied from the bishop-centered Trent, to Vatican I's declaration of papal infallibility, to a new balance of power at Vatican II. At Trent, laymen had direct influence on proceedings. By Vatican II, they had only a token presence. At each gathering, fundamental issues recurred: the relationship between bishops and the papacy, debates over the purpose of a council, and the problem of change. Do the teachings of the church, by definition a conservative institution, change over time? Such a sweeping examination of councils in society has never been written before. But councils, as ecclesiastical as well as cultural institutions, have always reflected and profoundly influenced their times. Readers familiar with the works of John O'Malley, as well as those with no knowledge of councils, will find this volume indispensable, a way to access essential questions: Who is in charge of the church? What difference did the councils make, and will there be another?--

Download or read book What Happened at Vatican II written by John W. O'Malley and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2010-09-01 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During four years in session, Vatican Council II held television audiences rapt with its elegant, magnificently choreographed public ceremonies, while its debates generated front-page news on a near-weekly basis. By virtually any assessment, it was the most important religious event of the twentieth century, with repercussions that reached far beyond the Catholic church. Remarkably enough, this is the first book, solidly based on official documentation, to give a brief, readable account of the council from the moment Pope John XXIII announced it on January 25, 1959, until its conclusion on December 8, 1965; and to locate the issues that emerge in this narrative in their contexts, large and small, historical and theological, thereby providing keys for grasping what the council hoped to accomplish. What Happened at Vatican II captures the drama of the council, depicting the colorful characters involved and their clashes with one another. The book also offers a new set of interpretive categories for understanding the council’s dynamics—categories that move beyond the tired “progressive” and “conservative” labels. As we approach the fiftieth anniversary of the calling of the council, this work reveals in a new way the spirit of Vatican II. A reliable, even-handed introduction to the council, the book is a critical resource for understanding the Catholic church today, including the pontificate of Benedict XVI.

Book excerpt: Winner of the John Gilmary Shea Prize The Council of Trent (1545–1563), the Catholic Church’s attempt to put its house in order in response to the Protestant Reformation, has long been praised and blamed for things it never did. Now, in this first full one-volume history in modern times, John W. O’Malley brings to life the volatile issues that pushed several Holy Roman emperors, kings and queens of France, and five popes—and all of Europe with them—repeatedly to the brink of disaster. During the council’s eighteen years, war and threat of war among the key players, as well as the Ottoman Turks’ onslaught against Christendom, turned the council into a perilous enterprise. Its leaders declined to make a pronouncement on war against infidels, but Trent’s most glaring and ironic silence was on the authority of the papacy itself. The popes, who reigned as Italian monarchs while serving as pastors, did everything in their power to keep papal reform out of the council’s hands—and their power was considerable. O’Malley shows how the council pursued its contentious parallel agenda of reforming the Church while simultaneously asserting Catholic doctrine. Like What Happened at Vatican II, O’Malley’s Trent: What Happened at the Council strips mythology from historical truth while providing a clear, concise, and fascinating account of a pivotal episode in Church history. In celebration of the 450th anniversary of the council’s closing, it sets the record straight about the much misunderstood failures and achievements of this critical moment in European history.
