Book The Sanctity of Louis IX

    Book Details:
  • Author : Geoffrey of Beaulieu
  • Publisher : Cornell University Press
  • Release : 2013-11-29
  • ISBN : 0801469147
  • Pages : 217 pages

Download or read book The Sanctity of Louis IX written by Geoffrey of Beaulieu and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2013-11-29 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Louis IX of France reigned as king from 1226 to 1270 and was widely considered an exemplary Christian ruler, renowned for his piety, justice, and charity toward the poor. After his death on crusade, he was proclaimed a saint in 1297, and today Saint Louis is regarded as one of the central figures of early French history and the High Middle Ages. In The Sanctity of Louis IX, Larry F. Field offers the first English-language translations of two of the earliest and most important accounts of the king’s life: one composed by Geoffrey of Beaulieu, the king’s long-time Dominican confessor, and the other by William of Chartres, a secular clerk in Louis’s household who eventually joined the Dominican Order himself. Written shortly after Louis’s death, these accounts are rich with details and firsthand observations absent from other works, most notably Jean of Joinville’s well-known narrative The introduction by M. Cecilia Gaposchkin and Sean L. Field provides background information on Louis IX and his two biographers, analysis of the historical context of the 1270s, and a thematic introduction to the texts. An appendix traces their manuscript and early printing histories. The Sanctity of Louis IX also features translations of Boniface VIII’s bull canonizing Louis and of three shorter letters associated with the earliest push for his canonization. It also contains the most detailed analysis of these texts, their authors, and their manuscript traditions currently available.

Book Subversive Habits

    Book Details:
  • Author : Shannen Dee Williams
  • Publisher : Duke University Press
  • Release : 2022-03-21
  • ISBN : 1478022817
  • Pages : 294 pages

Download or read book Subversive Habits written by Shannen Dee Williams and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2022-03-21 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Subversive Habits, Shannen Dee Williams provides the first full history of Black Catholic nuns in the United States, hailing them as the forgotten prophets of Catholicism and democracy. Drawing on oral histories and previously sealed Church records, Williams demonstrates how master narratives of women’s religious life and Catholic commitments to racial and gender justice fundamentally change when the lives and experiences of African American nuns are taken seriously. For Black Catholic women and girls, embracing the celibate religious state constituted a radical act of resistance to white supremacy and the sexual terrorism built into chattel slavery and segregation. Williams shows how Black sisters—such as Sister Mary Antona Ebo, who was the only Black member of the inaugural delegation of Catholic sisters to travel to Selma, Alabama, and join the Black voting rights marches of 1965—were pioneering religious leaders, educators, healthcare professionals, desegregation foot soldiers, Black Power activists, and womanist theologians. In the process, Williams calls attention to Catholic women’s religious life as a stronghold of white supremacy and racial segregation—and thus an important battleground in the long African American freedom struggle.

Book A History of Medieval Europe

Download or read book A History of Medieval Europe written by R.H.C. Davis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-08-16 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: R.C. Davis provided the classic account of the European medieval world; equipping generations of undergraduate and ‘A’ level students with sufficient grasp of the period to debate diverse historical perspectives and reputations. His book has been important grounding for both modernists required to take a course in medieval history, and those who seek to specialise in the medieval period. In updating this classic work to a third edition, the additional author now enables students to see history in action; the diverse viewpoints and important research that has been undertaken since Davis’ second edition, and progressed historical understanding. Each of Davis original chapters now concludes with a ‘new directions and developments’ section by Professor RI Moore, Emeritus of Newcastle University. A key work updated in a method that both enhances subject understanding and sets important research in its wider context. A vital resource, now up-to-date for generations of historians to come.

Book Characters of the Reformation

Download or read book Characters of the Reformation written by Hilaire Belloc and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-11-13 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hilaire Belloc's landmark study Characters of the Reformation argues that Western Europe's break from the Catholic Church was driven by a land-grab and looting of Church property by European noblemen. Belloc has little admiration for the so-called leaders of the time and credits the Reformation to behind-the-scenes players. Each chapter is a mini-biography and individuals covered include Anne Boleyn, Pope Clement the Seventh, Cecil, Richelieu, Laud, Oliver Cromwell, Descartes, Pascal and more.

Book excerpt: "[...] Spain, not devout at all, but hating things not Catholic because those things are foreign, was more than apart. Britain had long forgotten the unity of Europe. France, a protagonist, was notoriously divided within herself over the religious principle of that unity. No modern religious analysis such as men draw up who think of religion as Opinion will make anything of all this. Then why was there a fight? People who talk of "Democracy" as the issue of the Great War may be neglected: Democracy-one noble, ideal, but rare and perilous, form of human government-was not at stake. No historian can talk thus. The essentially aristocratic policy of England now turned to a plutocracy, the despotism of Russia and [...]."

He was known in his time as a preacher and was made a missionary apostolic by Pope Clement XI. As well as preaching, Montfort found time to write a number of books which went on to become classic Catholic titles and influenced several popes. Montfort is known for his particular devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary and the practice of praying the Rosary. Montfort is considered as one of the early writers in the field of Mariology. His most notable works regarding Marian devotions are contained in The Secret of Mary and the True Devotion to Mary. The Roman Catholic Church, under the pontificate of Pope Pius XII canonized Montfort on July 20, 1947. Those of you looking to know our Heavenly Mother Mary better and to consecrate yourselves to Her service will find an abundant source of treasure within these books. The Holy Rosary is explained and how it can be used to fight satan in these times. Also explained is the mystery of suffering and the cross. Saint Louis de Montfort’s works have been extolled by numerous Popes and theologians, including Blessed Pope John II, who consecrated himself to Mary. His moto; “Totus Tuus”, meant “totally yours”. This Collection includes Saint Louis de Montfort's works, including the original English translation of True Devotion to Mary with a supplementary 33-day Preparation for Total Consecration and a biography sketch. Included in this Collection are seven books: TRUE DEVOTION TO MARY: WITH PREPARATION FOR TOTAL CONSECRATION BY SAINT LOUIS DE MONTFORT THE SECRET OF MARY BY SAINT LOUIS DE MONTFORT THE DE MONTFORT WAY OF TRUE DEVOTION TO MARY: AN EXPLANATION BY FRANK DUFF THE SECRET OF THE ROSARY BY SAINT LOUIS DE MONTFORT THE LOVE OF ETERNAL WISDOM BY SAINT LOUIS DE MONTFORT A LETTER TO THE FRIENDS OF THE CROSS BY SAINT LOUIS DE MONTFORT APOSTLE OF MARY: SAINT LOUIS DE MONTFORT BY P.
