McDowell, Christina L. "St. Catherine of Siena’s Dialogue: Enacting Semioethics-Responsive Communication." Journal of Communication and Religion 46, no. 1 (2023): 100–118. http://dx.doi.org/10.5840/jcr202346111.

Abstract:

St. Catherine of Siena’s life and writings illustrate the ways a person’s communication can provide guidance to others. Catherine exemplifies a dialogic responsiveness and commitment to semioethics by embodying her narrative tradition with an attentiveness toward charity and love toward others. Through an exploration of Catherine’s participation in society, giving specific attention to her effort to communicate with other people, this essay tells the story of St. Catherineof Siena; discusses her semioethics responsiveness through uncovering her dialogic approach grounded in the Catholic intellectual tradition; and addresses her responsiveness to others, using her letters to demonstrate her semioethics.

Abstract:

In this article, the author shows how Catherine of Siena, a mystic who lived in Italy for thirty-three years in the second part of the fourteenth century, known for ecstasies and revelations, put discretion (and prudence, its synonym), the leading virtue in the moral life, at the core of her spirituality, thus becoming a real lover of the truth and a teacher of true freedom. The article contains bibliographical references for the reader’s further study of the writings (Dialogue, Letters, and Prayers) linked to this formidable figure, who was canonized in 1461 and proclaimed a Doctor of the Church in 1970. Catherine’s teaching, firmly anchored in what the Church and her great Doctors have always taught, remains to this day a rich treasure for spiritual growth.

Abstract:

Pope Paul VI. declared St. Catherine of Siena and St. Theresa of Avila to be Doctors of the Church, breaking by this act a long tradition in a twofold way: first, because they were the first two female Doctors of the Church; second, because Catherine of Siena became the first and so far only Doctor who is a lay person. In this study, we shall examine St. Catherine’s account of the three theological virtues in the Dialogues. The questions we shall ask are: what has Catherine to say concerning our ability to know the love of God? How is the gift of the fear of God connected to hopefulness? What are the stages of growth in love? The Catechism of the Catholic Church stresses that the three theological virtues prepare us for an essential relationship with the Holy Trinity. Therefore, a careful examination of the teachings of such a highly praised Saint is of great importance.

Abstract This essay aims to shed light on the period spent by Catherine of Siena in Pisa during the year 1375. Catherine was not only a woman of faith and devotion, but also a leading political player in late 14th-century Tuscany, in direct contact with the Apostolic See through the members of her clique. Why did the lord of Pisa, Pietro Gambacorta, summon her to his city? What networks of relations did Catherine’s arrival fit into? What were the tangible consequences of her stay in Pisa?

Abstract:

Abstract Catherine of Siena shows a particular penchant for Christ's blood piety, and her Letters reveal how many images connected to an experiential imitation of Christ's Passion are at the base of her mysticism. The present article discusses Catherine of Siena's use of Pauline anthropology of renewal in the body and argues that Catherine's particular devotional experience and affective mysticism are centered on Christ's blood and embodiment. Through her theological reuse of imitatio Christi in a selection of her Letters, the article posits that Catherine connects her imitational mysticism to a Pauline exigency of renewal within and without the body.

Abstract:

Catherine of Siena was declared doctor of the universal church in 1970 for reasons documented in the record of the canonical process for that declaration. Primary among these reasons were her defense of the papacy and her orthodox fidelity to the magisterium, with emphasis on supernatural inspiration rather than human giftedness as the foundation of her teaching. Beginning from Catherine's own comments on doctors of the church, this essay proposes that a more cogent reason for naming Catherine doctor of the church rests in her pastoral genius grounded in a discipleship that seeks ultimate truth only in the truth that is God. That pastoral genius expresses itself in writings that are at once theologically sound, faithful, and humanly sensitive.

Abstract:

In addition to her identity as a saint, reformer, political activist and visionary, Catherine of Siena was uniquely affiliated with two groundbreaking institutions of the late middle ages: the lay confraternity and the third order. This paper focuses specifically on the figure of Catherine in order to address several important questions related to confraternity studies, including the role of gender in distinguishing lay devotional groups, the nature of women’s participation in confraternities, and the problem of their practice of the discipline. The resulting study sheds new light on Catherine’s corporate devotional identity by documenting her commemoration in text, image, and historical memory as both a consorella and a mantellata.

Abstract:

This essay begins with the paradox that Catherine of Siena, perhaps the most famous uncloistered religious woman in the Middle Ages, became after her death an authority and model for cloistered monasticism for women during the Dominican reform movement. But the dissonance in the idea of Catherine as a model for cloistered religious women is heightened by false assumptions or oversimplifications of Catherine’s religious status, and of what it meant for Catherine to be a model for this or that form of religious life. This essay surveys Catherine’s letters to religious women, including letters to penitents or mantellate and letters to abbesses and nuns in monasteries. While Catherine’s letters to penitents and other women living in the world focus on the challenges of living without a formal religious rule, her letters to nuns focus on the importance of their maintaining claustration, following their rule and on the dangers of wealth—a recognition of the generally higher social and economic standing of monastic women. Catherine seems also to identify certain kinds of prayer with monastic life. It is important to remember that Catherine herself founded a monastery, and while it remains unclear what precisely her intentions were for this community, it is another sign of Catherine’s interest in and commitment to cloistered religiosity. The essay concludes by arguing for a more nuanced understanding of what it might have meant for Catherine to be a model for specific forms of religious life.

Abstract:

In the spring of 1376, Catherine, the uneducated daughter of a Sienese dyer, a simple lay Tertiary, traveled to Avignon in southern France. She wanted to speak directly with Pope Gregory XI about organizing a crusade, reforming the Catholic church, ending his war with Florence, and moving his court back to Rome. Her reputation for holiness and her orthodoxy gave her a hearing with the pope, and so her words had a measure of influence on him. Gregory did move to Rome in the fall of 1376, and he paid for her trip back to Italy. In 1377 he allowed her to lead a mission in the Sienese countryside: he wanted her presence there to help save souls and perhaps stimulate interest in a crusade. In 1378 he sent her to Florence as a peacemaker for the war between the Tuscan cities and the papacy. In late 1378 Gregory's successor Urban VI asked her to come to Rome to support his claim to the papacy against the schismatic Pope Clement VII. Finally in 1380, Catherine died in Rome, exhausted by all these endeavors.

Abstract:

Catherine of Siena (Caterina) was a twin whose twin sister, Giovanna, died around the age of two. It is argued that a conflict relating to her lasting relationship with her dead twin is the key to a psychological understanding of the mysticism of Catherine of Siena. She was torn between her survivor-guilt and her desire to be re-united with her lost twin. This ‘Vergotean’ thesis is supported by contemporary psychological knowledge relating to the social construction of twinship and the impact of the death of a twin on the surviving twin. This conflict was played out in her (twin) relationship to Jesus within the social context of her becoming an important religious and political leader of a ‘family’ of followers, including her biographer, the Dominican, Raymond of Capua.

Abstract:

Abstract In this article I focus on two of the most prominent female saints: the Franciscan St. Clare of Assisi (1194–1253) and one belonging to the third order of Saint Dominic, St. Catherine of Siena (1347–1380). I analyze a series of visual examples that picture their roles as saviors against epidemics and point out similarities and differences between them. I emphasize the power of the images in providing relief and salvation. St. Clare of Assisi and St. Catherine of Siena offer two distinct models of female sanctity that protect against the plague: the first owing to her symbolic power and her being a kind of a second Mary and the second because of her unique personality and actions in healing the sick and saving the dying in Italian cities.

Abstract:

A dispetto delle sue dimensioni impressionanti e della complessità dello schema iconografico — che include non solo la statua ma anche un'intera sequenza di scene scolpite, emblemi e iscrizioni — il monumento a Santa Caterina di Siena collocato nei pressi di Castel Sant'Angelo ha ricevuto sorprendentemente poca attenzione da parte degli studiosi. L'articolo cerca di colmare questa lacuna presentando un'analisi dettagliata del monumento che esplora il suo linguaggio, il suo simbolismo e il contesto religioso e politico in cui si colloca. In questo modo si arguisce che il monumento sta, non solo cronologicamente, ma anche ideologicamente, a metà strada tra tre distinte interpretazioni di Caterina di Siena e il suo significato politico percepito nell'Italia del ventesimo secolo. Nell'articolo si suggerisce anche una spiegazione circa i motivi della dimenticanza del monumento da parte degli studiosi fino ad oggi, ricollegandola a specifiche circostanze e al contesto dell'inaugurazione del monumento nell'aprile del 1962.

Abstract:

The article is a result of the research on continental European paintings in York Art Gallery, completed as a part of the project National Inventory of Continental European Paintings. Two late gothic panels, painted on both sides, contain the depictions of three saints in half-length on each side. Nowadays only one of these panels is still in York Art Gallery, as the other one was stolen and its current location remains unknown. It seems that the panels from York used to be the wings of predellas; however, presented research questions traditional assumption that they may be considered as the parts of predella of the Nuremberg St Catherine of Siena retable, as it seems impossible to fit them into the reconstruction that would be iconographically reasonable and suiting the eighteenth century descriptions. The altar of St Catherine of Siena was completed in 1464 by the workshop of Hans Pleydenwurff, to the St Catherine's Church of the Dominican Nuns' Convent in Nuremberg. The whole structure did not survive; only its wings (panels of the mid-opening and closed retable) are now in the Germanisches Nationalmuseum in Nuremberg (GM137 and GM138 painted on both sides and GM139 and GM140 painted on one side) and in the North Carolina Museum of Art, Raleigh NC, USA (one inner panel of the inner pair of this altar's wings, decorated with the full length depiction of St Leonard). York panels were for sure created around the same time (1460s) and by the same workshop. At least one of them used to be part of the altar dedicated to the Dominican church. However, the panels from York seem to have been prepared as the left wings of two different predellas; it even seems that they may not have originally been of the same size.

Abstract:

Medieval women’s mysticism is characteristic to the European Middle Ages literature where there is a certain number of Italians. The authors’ desire to describe her own mystical experience as correctly as possible raise the problem of “expressing the inexpressible”, which results in using of characteristic linguistic means, stylistic as lexical. On the example of the texts of Angela da Foligno, Catherine of Siena and Catherine of Genoa, the article presents some of linguistic peculiarities of Italian medieval women’s mysticism: stylistical (the use of intentional tautologies, similarities, parabolas, metaphors, lithotes), and lexical (the use of courtesy and love lexis, as well as lexis related to the themes of motherhood, divine nursing, blood, nutrition and purification).

Abstract:

AbstractLondon, British Library, MS Harley 2409, written in the first half of the fifteenth century, contains a text that has come to be referred to as “long Version C” of The Cleanness of Soul, and which for some time has been considered as based on Catherine of Siena’s Dialogo. The latter, however, is wrong, as Jennifer N. Brown (2015) has recently shown. Part of the text is probably based on William Flete’s Documento spirituale, and it is this part which may most correctly be referred to as Cleanness of Soul. It is extant in three versions, of which Version C survives in Harley 2409 and in five other manuscripts. The version in Harley, however, contains additional material from elsewhere. I shall offer a brief discussion of the whole text, its sources and its textual affiliations as well as the first critical edition of what in this long version may more generally be called “Spiritual Teachings by Catherine of Siena”.

Abstract:

Catherine of Siena, a renowned medieval theologian and Doctor of the Catholic Church, offers a profound and coherent interpretation of the nature and function of a specific type of petitionary prayer, namely intercession for the salvation of sinners. Her understanding of intercession has two important elements: first, intercession is a fulfilment of the commandment to ‘love thy neighbour’; second, intercession is a providentially ordained means by which God intends to bring about the salvation of sinners. Contemporary philosophical-theological concerns and problems with the notion of petitionary prayer can be illumined and addressed by reference to her theory.

Abstract:

This article examines how the Carthusian Peter Dorlandus (1454–1507) rewrote the material about well-known saints like Joseph of Nazareth, Catherine of Alexandria, Cecilia of Rome, and Francis of Assisi so as to serve in the reformation both of individual believers and of the Church. He experimented with different genres: the traditional hagiographical genre of a vita, a hybrid text between the sermon and the vita, and the dialogue. Saint Joseph is primarily depicted as excelling in his radical intimacy with Christ and as a missionary. Dorlandus puts forward the virgin martyrs as spiritual leaders, for instance, in a dialogue between Cecilia and Francis, in which she teaches him that devotion is about the inner person. This article argues that this connects to the Carthusian faith regarding female visionaries such as Hildegard of Bingen, Catherine of Siena, and Bridget of Sweden as providers of guidance in the crisis of the Church.

Abstract:

Abstract This paper presents the analysis of a possible case of anorexia nervosa in the fourteenth century, the Saint Catherine of Siena’s one. Firstly, we briefly review her biography, including some original texts in which her anorexic behaviours are supposedly evident. Subsequently, we try to outline her psychological profile. Secon- dly, the current available documentary sources regarding this case are critically discussed because they may have been biased as they date back to 600 years ago and some of them were written to exalt the figure of this saint. Finally, we examine whether the case of Saint Catherine could have been an anorexia nervosa case or not, or whether she might have suffered from another psychological disorder that included some eating behaviour problems. We conclude that this should not be considered a true case of anorexia nervosa, but an unspecified eating disorder instead. We also recognize the value of the historical studies which help us better understand eating disorders. Key words: Anorexia nervosa, bulimia, history, review, eating disorders. Resumen En el presente artículo se presenta un análisis sobre un posible caso de anorexia nerviosa en el siglo XIV, el de Santa Catalina de Siena. Primero se realiza un breve repaso por su biografía, incluyendo algunos textos originales donde se manifiestan conductas supuestamente anoréxicas para, posteriormente, realizar un esbozo de su perfil psicológico. En segundo lugar se comentan críticamente las fuentes documentales disponibles en la actualidad respecto a dicho caso, dado que se intuye que pueden estar sesgadas, pues datan de hace 600 años y algunos de ellos se escribieron para ensalzar la figura de la santa. En el último apartado se valora si realmente el de Santa Catalina pudiera ser un caso de anorexia nerviosa u otro tipo de patología psicológica, que tuviera como síntomas algunas alteraciones en el campo del comportamiento alimentario. Se concluye considerando que quizá no se tratara de un verdadero caso de anorexia nerviosa, pero sí de algún tipo de trastorno del comportamiento alimentario no especificado, y reconociendo el valor que poseen los estudios históricos para entender mejor los trastornos del comportamiento alimentario actual. Palabras clave: Anorexia nerviosa, bulimia, historia, revisión, trastornos del comportamiento alimentario.

Abstract:

In this article, I analyze the translation commissioned in 1511 by Cardinal Francisco Ximénez Cisneros of the Life of Catherine of Siena by Raimundo da Capua, which includes the legendae of Giovanna (also known as Vanna) da Orvieto and Margherita da Città di Castello in the light of its translation, commission, and reception in premodern Castile. In the first place, I clarify the medieval transformations of Caterina’s text by discussing the main branches of her manuscript tradition and explaining the specificities of the editions authorized by Cisneros in order to know what exactly was printed. In the second place, I put these specificities into the courtly, prophetic context in which those books were published. Finally, I analyze the reception of these editions in the Iberian Peninsula, especially in relation to the figure of María de Santo Domingo, the famous Dominican tertiary.

Abstract:

Our research integrates into the comprehensive field represented by the cult of saints, and is designed as a case study regarding the cult of Catherine of Siena (1347-1380) in her native town, during the early modern period. As regards the sources, we will focus on the painted panels that used to decorate Siena’s accounting registers – known as tavolette di biccherna –, seven of which displayed images of the saint. We will thus consider the role of religious images – as the expression of preference in terms of worship – in the selfrepresentation of Sienese political authority, applying to the concept of“civic religion”, proposed by the french medievalist André Vauchez. Moreover, we intend to analyze the significance of the Catherinian themes commissioned by the Sienese government in relation to the hagiographic portrait, respecively the particularities of the devotion to the great mystic.
