Abstract:
In Judaism, the sun, moon and stars are observed to determine the date of the seasons and festivals or devotional times. In the Hebrew calendar, the beginning of a new day is marked at sunset and when the first stars of the night appear. Among the objects that mark dates expressing the joy of memorable times are the Hanukkah candlesticks, objects of devotion and piety, indispensable for the Festival of Lights and commemorating the rededication of the second Temple in Jerusalem. In this study we present several devotional candelabra and identify their relationship to the Hebrew ritual and prese

AbstractThis article argues that Flowers (flores sanctorum), collections of saints’ lives arranged by the liturgical calendar, were the first genre of devotional literature to have a global reach during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. This article begins with the medieval origins of Flowers before analysing their dispersion in the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries by the Franciscans and Jesuits. By taking a temporal long view and a transoceanic perspective, the article contributes to the scholarship on early modern evangelization, translation, global networks, and the historio

Abstract:
Layouts and paratexts of Elizabethan prose psalters advocate two competing reading methods: reading sequentially according to the church calendar or selecting psalms by occasion. Marked psalters and bibles, however, show that Elizabethan readers often disregarded printed prescription, practicing either method, or both, as they chose. To capitalize on reader independence, printers eventually produced texts that encouraged comparative reading across multiple translations, culminating in the two-text psalter of the 1578 Geneva Bible.

Abstract: This article proposes that fifteenth-century English poet John Lydgate transforms the medieval tradition of calendrical verse from a mnemonic aid to a site for readers to practice interpretive agency. Building on studies of the metrical calendar genre by Michael Lapidge and Jessica Brantley, I show how Lydgate's solutions to representing time in poetic meter in fact open up new possibilities for interpretive practice within late medieval penitential devotion. Lydgate's Kalendare is a poetic prayer composed for, and received on, the material page, yet whose proper reading works on, in

Abstract:
Abstract Chapter 1 offers a survey of medieval saint plays and the reforms of the liturgical calendar of the English church. The development of theatrical repertoire in the Middle Ages and the shifts in the catalog of saints in liturgical calendars determined which saints and which types of saints were dramatized on the early modern stage. In the Middle Ages, saints were depicted in snippets and scenes of iconography, miracles, transformation, and romance and these performances frequently occurred as part of a sacred temporality. When saints did appear in dramatic form, such as in the Digby Plays and the N-Town Plays, a process of vernacular improvisation interpolated tropes from other established genres and miracles were used to validate claims of sanctity. In all cases, it was common for theatrical and paratheatrical events involving saints to veer from their devotional vitae. The second half of the chapter tracks the growth, iconoclasm, and limited return of saints in English liturgical calendars across the various reforms of the sixteenth century. Despite a contention with saints and sainthood as England underwent Protestant reform, the official inventory of sanctity in the English church made space for certain ancient martyrs and English saints. Chapter 1 is complemented by the book’s two appendices. Appendix I presents a table of nearly three hundred theatrical events involving saints between the tenth and seventeenth centuries, and Appendix II inventories saints in liturgical calendars across the sixteenth century.

The chapter stresses the devotion of the Order to British royalty, Protestantism and the British state as expressed in ubiquitous use of the national flag and anthem and heavy recruitment into the services in wartime, when all activities were restructured in the absence of many members. Subsequent acquisition of war memorials and holding of commemoration events which were easily folded into the Order’s cultural calendar are discussed. The transmutation of Orange loyalty into imperial pride is explored, along with the development of an Orange diaspora through emigration facilitated by efforts to ensure migrant members linked up with lodges in their new homelands.

Mexicans, tejanos, and braceros converged on Chicago in greater numbers in the World War II era and after. Most settled around St. Francis of Assisi Church, which anchored the city’s largest Mexican neighborhood, the Near West Side. Puerto Ricans joined other Spanish speakers. Priests and nuns aimed to meet immigrants’ religious and social needs. St. Francis offered a rich Catholic liturgical calendar of feast days, novenas, and Holy Hours. Parishioners avidly took part in personal and communal religious devotion. St. Francis became “el refugio de los mexicanos” and simultaneously grew into a very American parish. As the city’s Latino population dispersed, the faithful came from well beyond the Near West Side. The church’s cathedral-like reputation endures even today.

Abstract:
This chapter demonstrates the formative role dance played in the Christianization of the liturgy and the sacralization of time. Using evidence from liturgical manuals, musical notation, and rituals, it traces how devotional choreography recuperated pagan motifs, impressed itself onto the regular rhythms of the liturgical calendar, and partook in the dance of the cosmos. In church dramas, dance exerted a didactic function, reinforcing the theme of Christian salvation alongside anti-Judaic rhetoric. The first section traces the authorization of liturgical dance in the Western Middle Ages. Through its ritualization of dance, the Western Church reinvented ancient rites within the discipline of the Latin liturgy. The second section illuminates the use of dance in liturgical drama. On the liturgical stage, the reenactment of Christian history offered a space for the ambivalence of dance to be worked out and re-signified. The third section offers a close reading of one specific liturgical dance ritual in Auxerre. This rite reconciled a pre-Christian myth with medieval eschatology and the Christian ordo.

Dame Gertrude was joined at Cambrai by her younger sister Bridget, and by her two first cousins, though The first Superior was Dame CaTherine Gascoigne. It was a small house: according to The Calendar of State Papers (Domestic, Charles I 13, p. 28) There were only fifteen of Them. Their constitution is preserved (Lille, Archives departmentalesdu Nord, 20 H 1), as is a number of oTher relevant documents, including a necrology of nuns who died There from 1631 to 1645 (Lille, 20 H 7). There is also a catalogue of The sisters’ books (Cambrai, biblioTheque publique 1004 (901) ), which included a variety of devotional works in English, French, and Latin.

Part III discusses prosulas according to their placement in the liturgical calendar. It is structured into three chapters, the first providing a general discussion of prosulas as glosses and a complete liturgical table of all Beneventan prosulas, the second examining the prosulas of the Temporal (the feasts connected with the life and mission of Jesus), and the third analyzing those of the Sanctoral (the feasts of the Saints). Prosulas of the Temporal were particularly abundant in manuscripts copied in female establishments, possibly as a reflection of the special devotion to Jesus as the nuns’ spiritual spouse; those of the Sanctoral tend to favor saints from Africa or West Asia, the perceived cradles of Christianity, to emphasize the prestige of the local Church.

Abstract:
Abstract While willing to employ dramatic scenarios to advance their aims, patriotic and civic activists spent most of their energies inventing traditions that were more than one-shot episodes. Like religious devotion, loyalty was to be inculcated through repeated observance-in some cases daily (as in Pledging Allegiance in schools), in others occasionally (playing the National Anthem at athletic events), in still others annually. The “high” Cold War encouraged efforts to patriotize the American calendar and occasions at which such usages had previously been exceptional. Many patriotic practices which may seem to have grown up with the country are of surprisingly recent vintage. Although Americans, it is argued, have long reverenced the state in what sociologist Robert N. Bellah labeled a “civil religion;’ they entered the Cold War lightly equipped with occasions for so doing. July 4, Memorial Day, and Thanksgiving were old enough to be time-honored, but the patina of age brought with it a degree of secularization. National days became occasions for leisure more than patriotic reflection.

Abstract:
Abstract ‘Popular culture’ is an elusive concept, and in this period can be distinguished only arbitrarily from ‘popular belief’. It can mean common social custom, such as the practice of strangers sharing a common bed in inns.2 It can be taken to be mass as opposed to elite culture, the village fair rather than the exclusive dances of the well-to-do.3 Seen from another angle, it can be contrasted to ‘official’ culture, almost as a sub-culture outside socially controlled modes of behaviour. This is the culture of wayfaring folk, journeymen, of the plebeian lower strata, as opposed to the regulated life of those organised in guilds or corporations. Another approach could define it as superstition, as a pattern of behaviour dependent on having access to and control over supernatural power.5 The use of skin taken from a hanged man as a talisman against evil exemplifies this definition. Finally, it might be related to elemental aspects of material life, to basic biological rhythms such as reproduction, nourishment and the cyclesofnature.6 Shepherds’ calendars and blood-letting tables illustrate this usage. The third and fourth of these definitions merge with ‘popular belief’, with attempts to contact or deal with the supernatural. Popular belief in this sense was often set apart from officially sanctioned belief, as unorthodoxy to which the Church either turned a blind eye, or which it sought to channel as far as possible away from heterodoxy. Popular devotion to the saints during the later middle ages was of this nature.
