CONSOLATIONS FOR MELANCHOLY IN RENAISSANCE HUMANISM

CONSOLATIONS FOR MELANCHOLY IN RENAISSANCE HUMANISM

Author(s): Angus GOWLAND / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2012

Keywords: Consolation; Melancholy; Renaissance Humanism; Psychology; Rhetoric; Passions; Imagination

This essay explores the role of melancholy within the consolatory literature of Renaissance humanism. It begins (sections I-II) with a summary of the themes and methods of humanist consolationes and their classical models, with particular attention to their moral psychology, and addresses their relationship with scripture and Christian spiritual literature. It then turns to the position of melancholy within humanist consolations (sections III-VI). It is shown that whilst in many cases moralists and spiritual writers were reluctant invade the territory of the physicians by analysing or treating a fundamentally somatic condition, discussions of the accidentia animi in Galenic medicine provided the conceptual environment within which a moral-consolatory therapy for melancholy could be formulated and applied. Here the role of the imagination was crucial: as the primarily affected part in the disease, it was the faculty of the soul that was primarily responsible for melancholic passions, but also the faculty that presented the physician and moralist with the opportunity to dispel or alleviate those passions. Hence, the imagination was at the centre of a moral psychology of melancholy. The final sections of the essay (V-VI) show that the fullest implementation of this approach to the treatment of melancholy was in Robert Burton’s ‘Consolatory Digression’ in The Anatomy of Melancholy (1621), which both synthesises the various moral, spiritual and psychological elements of the humanist consolatory tradition, and contains a number of idiosyncratic and paradoxical features.

„You are Witnesses of These Things!” (Luke 24:48) The Concept of Testimony in the Gospel of Luke

„Wy jesteście świadkami tego!” (Łk 24,48) Koncepcja świadectwa w Ewangelii Łukasza

Author(s): Piotr Nyk / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 27/2015

Keywords: Testimony; witness; disciples; the Twelve; Gospel of Luke; sending; missionary commandments

The present article deals with the studies of testimony in the Gospel of Luke, focusing on the testimony of the disciples of Jesus. In the introduction the author outlines the theme of testimony in the double work of Luke-Acts as compared to other New Testament writings, and explains the meaning of giving testimony and being a witness according to the Third Evangelist. The exegetical study of texts, describing the missionary activity of the disciples in Luke shows that they were acting as witnesses in several stages. In the first stage the Twelve are witnesses sent by Jesus to proclaim the kingdom of God in Galilee. The second stage is the testimony of the seventy-two disciples sent on a mission to proclaim the kingdom of God in Samaria and Galilee. The radicalism of the requirements resembles the radicalism of Jesus’ life, and yields the special character of the disciples’ testimony. The object and the quality of the disciples’ testimony are changed after the Easter events. The disciples have to reckon with persecution, which turned into an opportunity to give testimony inspired by the Holy Spirit. The missionary commandment given by the Risen Lord, being simultaneously a testimony commandment, is preceded by the empowerment of the disciples with supernatural gifts from the Risen Lord, and conditioned by acceptance of the Holy Spirit. The object of disciples’ testimony after Easter will be the passion, the death, and above all the resurrection of Christ based on the prophecies of the Old Testament, and conversion with forgiveness of sins in His name. The testimony of the apostolic community of disciples would be taken from Palestine to all nations on Earth.

THE CONCEPTS OF HOLINESS IN THE PATRISTIC TIME. AN OUTLINE OF THE ISSUES

KONCEPCJE ŚWIĘTOŚCI W OKRESIE PATRYSTYCZNYM. ZARYS PROBLEMATYKI

Author(s): Marcin Wysocki / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 23/2016

Keywords: holiness; patrology; patristic; Fathers of the Church; sanctification

The above article presents the concepts of holiness developed in the patristic period by the Church Fathers and early Christian writers. Ancient Christianity has not worked out one specific model of holiness. Attempts of this kind of unification in the Western Church did not appear until the time of the scholastic theology and medieval legal theology of canonization. For patristic theology only God is holy in the full and the only sense, the holiness of a man and the things is a derivative of a relationship to this fundamental source of holiness. The article consists of two major parts: in the first – Indications of holiness – different meanings of holiness and realities referred as holy by early Christian writers have been presented. In the second part – The ways to holiness – five, the most common in the writings of the Church Fathers, concepts of holiness and sanctification of man were presented, among which we can distinguish: a deification of man, man’s sanctification in the Holy Spirit, the sanctification of man in grace, the perfection and holiness of man as a model of life promoted by the Church. To understand modern understanding of holiness and to present as a whole the issue of holiness one must consult the Tradition of the Church in the first centuries, and the writers who not only wrote about holiness, but in many cases they have become saints.

The Spiritual Dimension of Sound. A Theological Reflection on the Connection Between Man’s Acoustic Environment and His Christian Spiritual Life

Duchowy wymiar dźwięku. Teologiczna refleksja na temat relacji pomiędzy środowiskiem akustycznym człowieka a jego chrześcijańskim życiem duchowym

Author(s): Elžbieta Matulewicz / Language(s): Polish,Italian / Issue: 1/2009

Keywords: Sound;Spiritual Life;Music; John of the Cross; Ludwig van Beethoven;Elisabeth of Dijon;

Nello studio seguente si affronta il tema della relazione tra i fenomeni acustici presenti nella vita dell’uomo e la sua vita soprannaturale cioè la sua spiritualità cristiana. L’uomo, da una parte, vive in mezzo ai fenomeni acustici, dall’altra li créa, è la fonte di essi. Genera, infatti, molti suoni naturali o di carattere artistico come per esempio la muska, il radiodramma, la colonna sonora di un film. I diversi tipi di suoni naturali e la creazione sonora possono influire, in una maniera positiva o negativa, sulla vita spirituale dell’uomo, sul suo contatto con Dio, sulla sua preghiera, sulla sua partecipazione alia liturgia, sul suo amore verso Dio e gli uomini. La creazione musicale, qualche volta, puô essere trattata come vocazione divina e dono etemo dell’amore verso le altre creature, e pure un modo di adorare Dio.

About the Name of Szentendre in the Roman Age

SZENTENDRE RÓMAI KORI NEVÉRŐL

Author(s): Endre Tóth / Language(s): Hungarian / Issue: 1/2006

Keywords: archaeology; Roman names; Szentendre; ancient world;Ulcisia;Constantia

In sämtlichen Werken, Handbüchern und Lexikonartikeln über die römische Zeit ist zu lesen, dass der Name des römischen Lagers auf dem Territorium der Stadt Szentendre Ulcisia Castra war und im 4. Jahrhundert in Castra Constantia geändert wurde. Wie jede seit langem eingewurzelte Kenntnis, bedeutet auch dies nicht unbedingt, dass die Behauptung richtig ist. Der Gebrauch beider Ortsnamen ist nämlich falsch. Der Name von Lager und Siedlung war Ulcisia und im 4. Jahrhundert Constantia. Castra gehört nicht zum Eigennamen Ulcisia, sondern ist in der Beschreibung des Straßenabschnittes im Itinerarium Antonini (266, 8–13: Solva mansio, Ad Herculem castra, Cirpi mansio, Ulcisia castra) die Erläuterung des Ortsnamens. Castra Constantia des 4. Jahrhunderts ist die Folge der fälschlichen Deutung einer Grabinschrift (RIU 903b: Flavius Dragilis ex praeposito castri〈p〉 Const(antinensis) – lautet die richtige Deutung der Inschrift).

“Gentleness” in the Bible and the Gaudete et exsultate exhortation

„Łagodność” w Biblii i adhortacji Gaudete et exsultate

Author(s): Krzysztof Bieliński / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 16/2018

Keywords: gentleness; parenesis; Jesus – the example; „the fruit of the Spirit”; virtue; evangelization;

Pope Francis wrote in Gaudete et exsultate, his last exhortation about holiness in the modern world, that it consists in “reacting with meekness and humility”. The aim of this article is the biblical and theological analysis of the concept of “meekness”, understood as a characteristic of the attitude of modern Christians, for which the pope appeals in the exhortation. The reflection begins with a concise presentation of the etymology of the biblical term πραΰς (meekness/gentleness). Subsequently, the motif of meekness in the conduct and teaching of Jesus was analyzed. The distinction was made – following the Gospel of Matthew, which as the only canonical gospel contains the examined notion – between two aspects: meekness as a description of Christ being an example (Mt 11:29; 21:5) and Jesus’ parenesis about the gentleness of the disciples (Mt 5:5.38–45). The last point of the article was dedicated to the three parenetic passages of the New Testament’s epistolary prose, to which Pope Francis appealed in the exhortation Gaudete et exsultate. These texts exhort Jesus’ disciples to assume the attitude of meekness in three different contexts of life: (1) towards the sinful brothers Christians, whom the Church community should retrieve (Gal 6:1); (2.) towards the hostile environment from which the Christians’ faith and conviction should be defended (1 P 3:16); (3) towards the opponents of the teaching of Christ and of the Church (2 Tim 2:25). The conclusions resulting from the analysis were collected at the end.

At Home

At Home

Author(s): Maria Poprzęcka / Language(s): English / Issue: 5/2014

If we were to ponder for even a moment upon the ostensibly commonplace expression used daily: ”I’m at home.... I feel at home…”, we might realise that it evokes one of the greatest values of life. After all, ”to be at home” signifies not only to reside in one’s home. It also denotes to be oneself, in harmony with oneself and all that surrounds us. Moreover, it signifies an extremely precious feeling of inner peace, an accord with the world and a spiritual equilibrium.

Jesuit libraries and popular Jesuit literature in Kingdom of Hungary in the 17th century. Interconnection between Hungarian and Polish Jesuit book culture

Jesuit libraries and popular Jesuit literature in Kingdom of Hungary in the 17th century. Interconnection between Hungarian and Polish Jesuit book culture

Author(s): Marta Špániová,Lucia Lichnerová / Language(s): English / Issue: 2/2021

Keywords: Jesuit libraries; Jesuit literaturę; Kingdom of Hungary; Slovak territory; 17th century; Polonica

The authors present the characteristics of Jesuit libraries in the Kingdom of Hungary in terms of their content, with special focus on works by the most influential Jesuit authors, which were among the most numerous ones in Hungarian Jesuit libraries. The authors also draw attention to the most popular titles published by the Hungarian Jesuits in the 17th century, which can be considered bestsellers of Baroque Catholic literature not only in the Kingdom of Hungary, but also abroad. Many of them also found their readers in Poland and were translated into Polish. Furthermore, the authors point to the interconnection between Hungarian and Polish Jesuit book culture and the Jesuit Polonica in Hungarian Jesuit libraries and typographies of the 17th-18th century. The Hungarian book culture does not mean the book culture of contemporary Hungary, but of Kingdom of Hungary. This paper focus on the Jesuits from the Slovak territory, which was a part of Kingdom of Hungary for 800 years (from 11th century to 1918). The essential research sources are the international educational program Ratio Atque Institutio Studiorum Societatis Jesu and catalogues of Hungarian Jesuit libraries, located in Slovakia, from the years 1632–1782.

INVENTORY OF THE RECORDS OF THE ST MARTIN’S MONASTERY OF THE DISCALCED CARMELITE NUNS IN KRAKÓW

Inwentarz zespołu akt klasztoru pw. św. Marcina sióstr Karmelitanek Bosych w Krakowie

Author(s): Halina Dudała / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 119/2022

Keywords: Discalced Carmelite nuns; archival inventory; St Martin’s Monastery; Kraków; 17th-18th century

The Monastery of the Discalced Carmelite nuns in Kraków on Grodzka Street was the first female foundation in Poland of the Order of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Mount Carmel, reformed in the 16th century by St Teresa of Avila and St John of the Cross. The Discalced Carmelite nuns arrived in Kraków in 1612 and resided in their original abode until the monastery became dissolved in 1787. At that time, the documents of the monastery were transferred to the archives of the second monastery of the nuns of the same order in Kraków, that is, to the archives of the monastery of St Teresa of Jesus and St John of the Cross in the Wesoła district. The first attempt to inventory the holdings of this archive was made as early as 1961 by Professor Benignus Wanat, OCD. The creation of the nowpublished inventory was preceded by preliminary studies, focusing particularly on the order’s own regulations regarding the documentation produced and its archiving practices. The resource base of the archives of St Martin’s Monastery in Kraków consists of 190 archival units representing 12.5 linear meters of files. They are divided into 10 series reflecting the overall daily life of the community entirely devoted to asceticism and contemplation.
