Thompson, Anne. "Parish clergy wives in Elizabethan England." Thesis, University of Warwick, 2015. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/79964/.
Full textAbstract:
This study examines the lived experience and perceptions of the wives of the Elizabethan parish clergy following the introduction of clerical marriage. It challenges the widespread, but mistaken conviction that the first ministers’ wives have vanished from the historical record and shifts the emphasis from the institution to the individual. This has been achieved by consulting a large and heterogeneous collection of archival material including more than 1000 parish registers, 1000 wills, marriage licences, church court records, memorials and some newly-discovered certificates for ministers’ wives. This body of evidence, assembled from twelve dioceses in the southern province and from the archbishopric of York, demonstrates that the story of parish clergy wives can indeed be recovered. Qualitative and statistical analyses of social origin, considered assessments of the extent and nature of the abuse aimed at minister’s wives and a re-evaluation of the persistence, structure and significance of the letter testimonial refute most of the common assumptions about clergy wives derived from speculation and generalization. The impact of clerical marriage on charitable giving is evaluated in relation to the demands of family and the lack of provision for the clergy widow. Scrutiny of clerical courtship, relationships within the clerical household and involvement with her husband’s pastoral ministry enables us to chart the emerging importance of the clergy wife and changing attitudes towards her. Engagement with such extensive archival material exposes the close involvement of ministers’ wives with the wider community and reveals the agency of the women themselves in the advent and evolution of their role. Women who have hitherto been defined by their supposed obscurity and unsuitability are shown to have anticipated and exhibited the character, virtues and duties associated with the archetypal clergy wife of later centuries. The breadth of this investigation, therefore, uncovers and explores a neglected but crucial aspect of religious, social and women’s history.

Full textAbstract:
Between 1900 and 1939 the Greek-Catholic parish clergy in Galicia underwent a transformation of its social, national, political and cultural consciousness. In part this was the result of the political changes taking place in the province, as its Ruthenian population developed a Ukrainian national consciousness expressed during the interregnum between Austrian and Polish rule by the creation of the Western Ukrainian Popular Republic, and later, in the increasingly restrictive atmosphere of inter-war Poland, by the activity of both moderate and radical nationalist groups. In part this transformation was conditioned by the decline of the priestly caste and the rise of a new type of priest, usually a celibate of village origin. The transformation was also the result of a conscious programme initiated by Metropolitan Andrei Sheptyts'kyi to raise the moral and educational level of the clergy. To this end he reformed the L'viv seminary, established a theological academy, and organised full seminaries in Stanyslaviv and Peremyshl'. This prepared the parish priest to deal with a growingly nationalistic and often anti-clerical intelligentsia, and a village coming increasingly under its influence. At the same time, the parish clergy evolved a new sense of its identity, gradually abandoning the Russophile orientation of the Old Ruthenians and adopting first Ruthenian populism, then Ukrainian nationalism. Thus they found common cause with the secular intelligentsia. However, the Ukrainian orientation forced them to redefine the Eastern Ukrainian tradition in a manner compatible with Catholicism, and to formulate their stance towards Orthodoxy and the Kievan Byzantine tradition. Though split between Byzantinists and Westernisers, the clergy developed a strong sense of their place as leaders of Galician Ukrainian society, albeit in occasional competition with the nationalist intelligentsia, and of their mission as bearers of Catholicism in the East.

Full textAbstract:
This study investigates the expectations various groups in late medieval German society held of their parish priests and how these expectations were mediated through specific relationships. By analyzing the qualities, skills, duties and services required of the parish clergy by those in the priest's own social network--the episcopal and patronal structures above him and the parish and clerical communities around him--this study reveals the mutual obligations and contradictions inherent in the priest's situation. The strategies employed by individuals and groups to articulate and enforce their demands are examined as well as the means by which priests could negotiate or resist in order to protect their own interests. The result is a web of expectations, the individual strands of which are inspected in three major parts of the study, corresponding to the demands of the episcopal hierarchy, the intentions of a late medieval movement to educate the simple priest, and the perspective from the parish. In fifteenth-century Germany, the bishops of Constance sought to reduce their crushing debt by introducing new taxes upon the clergy of the diocese. The parish priests banded together and defied the bishop in 1492, negotiating a payment favorable to them. Another source of revenue directly contradicted diocesan law as bishops tolerated the presence of concubines among their priests in return for the payment of an annual fee. Manuals for parish priests were in high demand throughout the late medieval period; their popularity only increased after the invention of the printing press. Written to inform priests how to carry out their daily duties and avoid sacrilege, these manuals helped to steer the basic training of the parish priest toward a vocational profile combining the aura of the cultic priest with the standardized efficiency of the professional minister. Perspective from the parish encompasses the differing viewpoints of patron, priests and parishioners. The case of Wurttemberg reveals how Count Eberhard (†1496) used parish resources in an attempt to reshape devotion in his lands. In towns and villages served by a number of priests, a local clerical brotherhood often existed alongside lay parish structures. Conflict and cooperation is measured both between the clergy and the laity as well as within the ranks of the priests themselves.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of the thesis is to trace the development of the parochial ministry in the archdeaconry of Huntingdon from 1109 to 1547 and to examine the effects on this ministry of patronage exercised by the crown, the laity, the monasteries; the clergy, the colleges and the pope. The Introduction describes the area of ministry,namely the archdeaconry and the different types of parish within it. This is followed by a discussion of the source materials used in this study. The thesis is divided into three main sections under the headings, 'Patronage and Patrons', 'The Clergy' and 'The Church and The Laity'. The section on 'Patronage and Patrons' examines the use and abuse of the patronage system. The appropriation of churches by the monastic houses and its effect on the parishes is examined in detail. Disputes which affected all forms of patronage are also considered. The section on 'The Clergy' deals with their life and work in the archdeaconry. The attempts made by the bishops to provide an educated clergy is examined in detail. The problems connected with absenteeism and pluralism and the effects on ministry are considered. The section on 'The Church and The Laity' relies very much on mid-fifteenth-century documents as little material is available for the earlier period. The section shows how much the laity were involved in the life of the Church, especially in their membership of fraternities and guilds. Wills which provide details of life during this later period are examined. A special section on the controversial subject of the response of both the clergy and the laity to the sixteenth century reforms follows. In the final chapter observations are made on the whole period and some conclusions are drawn on the work of the Church throughout four and a half centuries.

Full textAbstract:
This study consisting of five chapters is an examination of the rights and obligations of the pastor of a parish according to the Code of Canons of the Eastern Churches and the Particular Law of the Syro-Malabar Church The following important issues constitute the core of the investigation pursued by the study: the juridical figure of the pastor of a parish in the Eastern tradition; the rights and obligations of the pastor of a parish as minister of the word of God, sanctification and governance; and the rights of the pastor of a parish in his removal and transfer from office.
The pastor of a parish, both theologically and juridically, is at the center of a parish community. He is a presbyter, the foremost collaborator of the eparchial bishop in the parish and he carries out his ministry under the authority of the same eparchial bishop.
The pastor is the good shepherd of the flock, teacher in matters of faith, preacher of the word of God, mediator and principal dispenser of the mysteries of God who has the right and obligation to encourage, coordinate and direct the catechetical formation of the faithful entrusted to his care. It is his primary responsibility for the sanctification of the faithful and he is obliged to motivate, inspire and organize his parishioners in a way that they will in fact live out "the sacraments and sacramentals" in their daily life. Pastor shares in the governing function of the eparchial bishop and assumes responsibilities of organizing, directing and coordinating the faith life of the parish community. His office does not entail legislative and judicial power. The Eastern Code and the particular law of the Syro-Malabar Church make provision for the pastor to exercise the executive power of governance especially in the area of dispensation from merely ecclesiastical laws, such as the laws governing matrimonial impediments under certain conditions and circumstances, blessing of marriages, dispensation from private vows and oaths, and the administration of the parish's temporal goods. The pastor is obliged to know his flock, promote Christian values both in individual members and in associations, and should make sure that the needy and the destitute are never ignored. All these responsibilities of the pastor of a parish are part of his function of organizing and directing the life of the faithful. It is the pastor's responsibility to arouse interest among his parishioners to be involved in the good of the community.
Through legitimate appointment to his office, the pastor acquires certain rights related to the security and stability of the office as well as his well-being and good name. A bishop cannot arbitrarily remove or transfer a pastor who has been appointed either for an indefinite period of time or for a determined period. Any substantial violation of the right of defense of a pastor could result in the invalidity of the bishop's decision.
The study concludes that a pastor of a parish does have concrete rights and corresponding obligations in the Church, and these rights and obligations are real and not merely empty words. These rights and obligations are embedded in the threefold mission of the Church, namely the teaching, sanctifying and governing functions.

Full textAbstract:
The thesis aims to research and produce the group portrait of parish clergy of Vilnius and Samogitia dioceses in the 15th – 3rd quarter of the 16th century. The analysis of almost all known sources and even occasional references provides possibility to reveal whether there were priests of local descent; representatives of which social strata opted for ecclesiastical career; how many of them performed the function of pastoral care effectively – resided in the area and were ordained; how many of them observed celibacy and other requirements for priesthood. The study also aims at establishing the degree of cohesion between parish clergy and hierarchically superior clergymen as well as other factors influential of the formation of common social identity. Already in the 15th century the diocesan clergy in the dioceses of Vilnius and Samogitia was an integral part of the universal Church. Main characteristics of examined parish clergy were common to all pre-Trent clergy in Europe: an absence of appropriate training; a lack of attitude to the requirements for priesthood of both clergyman and civics, an issue of residence, differences between high clergy and usual parsons. The late baptism and the social structure of the GDL were influential to some specific features of parish clergy in dioceses of Vilnius and Samogitia: a number of clergy in parishes was low; a diversity of parish clergy was also rather low; clergymen were representatives of the nobility; priests of Polish origin...

Rees, Robin Lodowick Douglas. "The role of music and musicians in current English parish church worship : the attitudes of clergy and organists." Thesis, University of Sheffield, 1990. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/1808/.
Full textAbstract:
One of the many issues currently confronting the Church of England is the role of music in worship. It is not a new debate, but has been brought into sharper focus in recent years in the wake of liturgical change. After examining the fundamental issues of the debate, the author considers them in the context of the present day. Other current matters of concern will also be discussed. The effects of liturgical change are then considered. The discussion is then widened to include: - a review of current hymnals and psalters; - a survey of the courses and qualifications in church music available in Great Britain; - three case studies demonstrating the problems that can arise when clergy and church musicians are in conflict; - a review of surveys in church music undertaken since 1950. The main work comprises a detailed survey by questionnaire to the priest-in-charge and organist at almost half the churches in a large diocese (that of Oxford). This yields an overall picture of: - respondents' personal backgrounds and general attitudes; - respondents' perceptions, both objective and subjective, of the situation at their church, and of each other. From these varied strands are drawn certain conclusions for improving clergy-organist relationships, and suggestions for further research in the subject.

Full textAbstract:
This study is concerned with the nature of the parish ministry in the diocese of Canterbury and archdeaconry of Bedford, its educational, professional, economic and social status, its work and its relations with the laity. It is also concerned with the impact of the Civil War and Interregnum on the profession. The pre-Civil War clergy formed a professional group with its own hierarchy, set of rules, rudimentary form of training and career structure. There was a strong sense of professional identity amongst them. The parish ministry was a popular profession in which most ministers could expect resonable renumeration and some chance of promotion. It can be termed a distinct social group, reasonably close to the gentry in social standing. It is likely that most ministers fulfilled their duties; and it is also likely that behind many presentments for clerical negligence lay local conflicts. Between the Scylla and Charybdis of Arminianism and Laudianism on the one hand and Puritanism on the other lay the Anglicanism of the majority of the pre-Civil War clergy. The 1640's and 1650's was a period of extreme but temporary dislocation for the profession. A significant number of ministers were deprived of their livings. Few of these were avid Laudians or implacable opponents of parliament. Many ministers found it difficult to collect their tithes. However, the overall adverse effects of the upheavals of this period should not be exaggerated, for a number of the ejected ministers made peace with parliament and were given new livings. Others were restored to the Church in the early 1660%. Most ministers escaped ejection; and many Anglican ministers survived in their livings undisturbed and it is likely that a number still used the traditional liturgy. The Anglican Church thus survived at a local level into the Restoration period.

Full textAbstract:
This study examines sources of clergy stress and ministers' coping strategies. The aim was to investigate Calvinist worldviews and their effects on Presbyterian ministers' choice of coping and stress levels. Specific hypotheses and questions were derived from process-stress theory and applications in the psychology of religion, as well as from secularisation theory. The author designed and conducted three separate, related studies. The first used 54 theological students comprising the pre-ministry stage. The second, focal study was of 65 parish ministers of the Presbyterian Church in NSW. These groups were chosen for an intensive study of the influence of Calvinist beliefs on stress and coping over two stages of ministry. The third surveyed 363 adult church attenders of Presbyterian congregations in NSW for specific analyses of stress-coping processes. Data were obtained through scales, questionnaires and interviews with parish ministers. Presbyterian students scored high on religious commitment but low in their endorsement of Calvinist beliefs. Presbyterian congregations also scored high on religious commitment and moderately high on their endorsement of Presbyterian beliefs. Major findings related to attributions and religious coping. Congregational members attributed life crises and hassles to God's allowing the situation, together with other human causes. Ministers had high religious commitment and agreement with Calvinist beliefs. One third scored at clinical levels of anxiety and burnout. Stress levels were strongly related to using an external locus of coping and less strongly to deficiencies in training and equipment for ministry. These stress levels were not directly related to role conflict or specific situational measures. Overall, findings pointed to inadequacies in process-stress theory for examining occupational stress. Ministry stress was best explained as a consequence of attempts to live out a Calvinist ideal in the absence of institutional and social legitimationDoctor of Philosophy (PhD)

Full textAbstract:
The present dissertation focuses on the appointment of clergy in the rural areas of Swedish province of Hälsingland during the period 1650-1800. The aim has been to analyse the practical process of clergy appointments as well as to discuss the development of the political culture of the said period in the way that it was reflected through the actions of the actors involved. The discussion concentrates on two aspects of the political culture, firstly on what kind of influence the parishes had in regard to the clergy appointments, secondly what the actions of the various actors in this context tell us about the local political culture. The study shows that the parishes did indeed assert their rights in connection with the clergy appointments. It is also shown that the parishes exerted a certain influence in terms of which clergyman to promote, but that this influence seems to have been limited to conditions dictated by the authorities. The clergy election reforms effected in the 1730's brought a significant change to the local political culture. Whereas the earlier legislation assumed that decisions were made unanimously, the elective reforms of the 1730's inaugurated the majority principle as election method, with the result that each voting parish member was now regarded as an independent actor. The investigation of the practice of clergy appointment in Hälsingland shows that the opinions reflected in the unanimous parish demands raised prior to the 1730's reforms primarily belonged to the most leading actors of the community. However, through the formalising of the decision-making procedure, the reforms made way for a broader participation in that process. All farm owners were entitled to vote in the clergy elections, which means that also women farm owners - primarily widows - had the right to vote. Nevertheless, as shown in the present study, the political culture was not as gender neutral as the legislation, seeing that, relatively speaking, the widows voted through proxies to a considerably larger extent than did the men.Diss.

Full textAbstract:
Au XVIIIe siècle, grâce aux efforts redoublés de l’Église post-tridentine, le clergé semble davantage formé, éduqué et moralisé, comme en atteste le topos littéraire du « bon prêtre ». L’étude d’un corpus de sources éclectiques, issues des archives de la Bastille, du parlement et de l’officialité de Paris, révèle la persistance d’un contingent non négligeable de membres déviants. Enjeux d’une surveillance multiforme de la part de leurs ouailles, de leurs pairs, de leur hiérarchie ou des instances policières, les ecclésiastiques contreviennent à l’impératif de chasteté en entretenant des relations ancillaires, sodomites et tarifées, de manière fortuite ou régulière. Outre la mise en lumière de leurs pratiques sexuelles et d’une géographie de la capitale tentatrice, la confrontation des sources souligne l’existence de plusieurs effets de seuils entraînant scandale, saisine de justice et répression, préalables indispensables à une réconciliation du corps socialDuring the 18th century, thanks to the efforts of the post-tridentine catholic church, the Clergy seems to be better trained, more educated and have a more ethical conduct, as confirms the figure of the “Good Priest” in French literature. Various sources from the archives of the Bastille, parliament and ecclesiastical courts reveal that a substantial number of clergy members had a deviant behavior. Some Clerics transgress chastity rules and engage in casual or regular intercourse with servants, other men or prostitutes. They are subsequently closely kept under close surveillance by their parishioners, fellow priests, hierarchy or by the police. The corpus studied has permitted to highlight their sexual practices as well as the geography of the places of debauchery in the city. It also revealed the existence of several threshold effects and the ensuing scandals, court cases and repression, which were essential for society to be reconciled with its Clergy

Le régime belge des cultes est un régime hybride, qui établit l'indépendance des cultes tout en maintenant un financement public. La législation relative à la gestion du temporel des cultes, héritée du régime concordataire napoléonien, devra s'adapter au nouveau régime constitutionnel né de l'affirmation de la séparation de l'Eglise et de l'Etat. Dans un premier temps, elle sera modifiée dans un sens favorable à l'Eglise catholique, avant de se trouver au coeur de la discorde entre catholiques et libéraux. Elle ne sera cependant jamais revue en profondeur, la Belgique ne connaissant jamais de loi de séparation comparable à la loi de 1905 en France.Aujourd'hui encore, l'organisation du financement public des cultes repose sur les bases établies au XIXème siècle.

Full textAbstract:
The first chapters of this thesis explore the picture of eighteenth-century Parisian popular culture emerging from recent research, and suggest how it may be incorporated into a history of Parisian popular disturbances in 1789. Developing themes from this, the thesis explores the interaction in 1791 between popular perceptions of the revolutionary situation and the perceptions of popular activity by the authorities and other opinion-forming groups, notably the press and the popular societies. The picture which emerges from comparison of police records with press and administrative reports is one of near-paranoid suspicion. Suspicion focused on the conception that popular discontent over socio-economic and political issues was necessarily the product of ignorance coupled with rabble-rousing by agents of aristocratic factions. In a situation of rising political tensions, stimulated by dissent amongst the clergy and royal reluctance to approve the new settlement, records show popular concerns over these events falling into spirals of growing alarm, as the press reflected back to the people the fears that their activities were provoking. Confusion over the identity of alleged seditious elements, coupled with social prejudices continuing from the ancien regime, made this process chronically destabilising, and eventually led to the Champ de Mars Massacre. The thesis concludes that individuals at all social levels appear to have had a meaningful engagement with the issues of freedom and equality raised by the promises of the Revolution, but that attempts to express these independently by members of the lower classes led to conflict and repression. It further suggests a path from this position to a new hypothesis on the formation of the sans-culottes under the Republic.

Le clergé de choeur de Sain-Germain l'Auxerrois de Paris fut une institution composée d'un chapitre canonial et d'une communauté de clercs auxiliaires. Son organisation institutionnelle date du XIIIe siècle. Pour la gestion du patrimoine, il appliqua le principe du bien commun devant l'emporter sur l'intérêt particulier. Chanoines et chapelains formaient un personnel très qualifié, résident, de plus en plus autochtone au XVe siècle. Ils étaient liés par de multiples réseaux, surtout dans l'administration royale. La communauté de Saint-Germ ain trouvait sa raison d'être dans le service d'une immense paroisse, par la récitation de la liturgie et la célébration de la mémoire des défunts. Elle jouait dans la ville le rôle fondamental de relais entre la cathédrale et d'autres paroisses, disposant de la collation de nombreux édifices. Au XVe siècle, par son clergé et sa position dans la hiérarchie religieuse de Paris, Saint-Germain fut l'établissement le plus prestigieux de la rive droiteThe choir's clergy of Saint-Germain l'Auxerrois in Paris was an institution made up with a chapter of canons and a society of clerics assistant. Its institutionnal organization dates from the XIIIth century. Concerning the patrimony's administration, it made use of the idea of common interest, which must prevail over particular interest. .

Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse porte sur la formation du clergé indigène dans un séminaire français (le Collège général des Missions Étrangères de Paris) à Penang (Malaisie), entre 1808 et 1968. Elle étudie l’histoire et tous les aspects de la vie d’une institution missionnaire : spiritualité et liturgie, études générales et théologiques, hygiène, repas et santé, travaux manuels, revenus. Elle s’intéresse aux membres de cette communauté, professeurs français et élèves venant d’une dizaine de pays d’Asie. L’observation d’une périodicité moyenne (160 ans) permet de suivre des évolutions et des transformations : centralisation romaine et politique étrangère de l’Église, colonisation et décolonisation de l’Asie, conséquences du Concile de Vatican II. Mais le principal objectif est d’étudier un système complexe de représentations. Le Collège général de Penang vise à transmettre une culture européenne, à reproduire un modèle de prêtre idéalisé, l’homo apostolicus, capable d’aller jusqu’au sacrifice de sa vie par le martyre. La thèse cherche à répondre à de nombreuses questions : comment des missionnaires européens perçoivent-ils l’Asie, que révèlent leurs aperceptions de l’indigène sur eux-mêmes, quelle place les missionnaires français, issus de la culture du catholicisme classique, accordent-ils au clergé autochtone, quelles furent les moyens, l’efficacité et la pérennité de cette entreprise éducative ?This PhD is about the education of asian native clergy in a french catholic seminary, (General College) in Penang (Malaysia), between 1808 and 1968. It deals with the history and many aspects of every day life in an institution led by missionaries : spiritual matters, liturgy, general and theological studies, hygiene, food, health, manual work, finances. It as taken an interest in studying the members of this community, french teachers and their pupils coming from twelve different countries of Asia. This quite long period (160 years) offers the opportunity to observe the evolution of political and cultural events, especially those connected with the Holy See’s foreign policy, the colonization of Asia, Vatican II’s consequences. But the major aim is consisting in the understanding of a system of cultural representations. The General College intends to transmit the european civilization, and also to produce, within native asian seminarists, an ideal-priest, the homo academicus, able to die a martyr to the Catholic Church, if necessary. Many questions are asked : how did french missionaries look at the native clergy they educated, and what does it reavels, wich rank do those newly converted priests deserved in the Church, how did the french teachers proceeded to achieve their purposes and were they successful ?

L'objet de cette étude est de chercher à connaitre les curés de Paris, durant des Réformes, à comprendre comment ces agents du renouveau pastoral que les évêques de Paris ont voulu promouvoir, ont accompli leur tâche pastorale et se sont insérés dans la vie de la cité. Trois parties suivies d'une annexe prosopographique structurent la thèse. La première établit les cadres dans lesquels l'activité des curés se développe : la ville et ses paroisses, l'encadrement diocésain et les relations conflictuelles avec les chapitres, les ordonnances synodales. La deuxième est consacrée à l'étude de l'origine des curés, du point de vue social et géographique, des manières d'accéder aux cures de Paris, de la formation religieuse et intellectuelle. La troisième tente de comprendre le rôle des curés dans les paroisses, la façon dont ils se sont acquitté de leur charge, les enjeux de pouvoir et les rapports avec le clergé paroissial et les marguilliers, leur place dans la cité, enfin leurs conditions de vie. Tous gradués, relativement stables dans les paroisses, les curés ont joué un rôle actif, par les prédications, dans la lutte contre les protestants mais n'ont pas été à l'initiative des luttes politiques. .This research work is meant to advance the historian's knowledge of the Paris priets action in the 16th century, an age of intense religious reformation, and help our readers understand how, as actors of the pastoral revival that characterized that age, boosted as it was by the Parish bishops, they fulfilled their mission and managed to fit in with the city's life. This dissertation falls into three parts plus a prosophical supplement. I first study the structures within which the Paris priests fulfilled their mission : the city, the parishes, the diocese. I also go into conflicting relationships that developed between the episcopal authority and the chapters, the edicts enforced by synods. Then, I study the Paris priets' social and geographical backgrouds, and how they could get access to their position. I also study how they were trained, religiously and intellectually. To finish with, I focus on the part they came to play within their own parishes, how they coped with their duties,and the stakes they had in power matters, within their relationship with paris clergymen and church wardens, their status within the urban communauty, and their lifestyle. .

En la tesis se analiza en profundidad el proceso de implantación y expansión de la Iglesia en un territorio de la Meseta sur castellana. El periodo de estudio abarca entre la conquista cristiana y el fallecimiento del Cardenal Cisneros. Para ello ha sido preciso estudiar de forma comparativa la evolución institucional eclesiástica y los pormenores del sistema tributario decimal, toda vez que las tierras estudiadas pertenecen a tres diócesis distintas (Toledo, Cuenca, Cartagena). La tesis se centra en la Parroquia como célula organizativa y en el clero rural en sus múltiples relaciones humanas. Entre las conclusiones principales se aprecia la intensa brecha social existente entre la jerarquía eclesiástica y el clero rural, la disparidad organizativa de las instituciones eclesiásticas en cada obispado y la evolución de las estrategias que lleva a cabo la nobleza en sus relaciones con respecto a la Iglesia.The thesis tries to deeply analyse the church in its process of establishment and growth in a territory in the castilian South Plateau. The time frame covers the period between the Christian conquest and the moment of the death of the Cardinal Cisneros. Within this aim, it has been compulsory to study comparatively the evolution of the ecclesiastical institutions and the details of the tithe system, since the lands in study belong to three dioceses (Toledo, Cuenca and Cartagena).The work focuses on the parish as an organizational core and on the country clergy as a context of multiple human relationships. Among the main conclusions it has brought to an end the deep social division between the ecclesiastical hierarchy and the country clergy, the many different ways to organize the ecclesiastical institutions in each bishopry and the evolution in the strategies which are implemented by the nobility in its relations towards the church

Full textAbstract:
This article explores the reasons behind the decision by the high clergy and the Crown to advocate a «self-support» policy for the parishes. For those powers, it was more convenient to allow parishes to raise their own revenues instead of finding new sources of income, which could erode tithe collections or put further pressure on the royal treasury, as suggested by some isolated voices during the fourth Mexican provincial council of 1771. However, the predominating trend was to induce the faithful to support their parishes.El objetivo de este artículo es exponer los motivos del alto clero y de la Corona para reafirmar la política de lo que aquí llamo «auto-sustento» de los curatos. Para esos poderes era más conveniente que cada curato se autofinanciara a tener que buscar nuevas fuentes de ingreso, lo cual podía desembocar en un mayor reparto del diezmo o extraer recursos de la Real Hacienda, como plantearon algunas voces aisladas en el IV Concilio provincial mexicano de 1771. La tendencia fue, por el contrario, garantizar que los fieles sustentaran a cada parroquia.

Full textAbstract:
Née vraisemblablement à la fin du XIVe siècle, la Basoche du Palais est la communauté de métier des clercs de justice des avocats, procureurs et conseillers du Parlement de Paris. Elle défend leurs intérêts professionnels et organise l'apprentissage. Les clercs de la Basoche ont des pratiques communautaires, professionnelles et culturelles spécifiques, dans lesquelles la pratique du théâtre tient une place majeure. Il est nécessaire de regarder la production théâtrale de la Basoche comme une extension des pratiques didactiques de cette communauté de métier. Leurs pratiques judiciaires (et notamment les " causes grasses ") et leurs pratiques théâtrales sont liées et se transmettent au sein de leur communauté de métier, gardienne d'un patrimoine culturel, celui du monde de la justice. Les farces et les sotties jouées par les clercs de justice révèlent une culture proprement basochienne, où s'épanouit l'esprit carnavalesque, et où la satire politique est importante, où s'expose un fort esprit corporatif, un penchant prononcé pour le raisonnement intellectuel, un certain anticléricalisme et un matérialisme manifeste. Ces représentations théâtrales sont contrôlées par le Parlement de Paris, qui montre néanmoins au début du XVIe siècle une attitude bienveillante et protectrice envers les basochiens. On repère parmi les auteurs issus du milieu de la Basoche Guillaume Coquillart, Martial d'Auvergne, Pierre Gringore, Jehan Bouchet, Jehan d'Abondance, André de la Vigne, Roger de Collerye, François Habert et Clément MarotThe Basoche du Palais, likely formed towards the end of the XIVth century, is the trade community of the law clerks, "lawyers", "procureurs" and "conseillers" of the Paris Parliament. It defends their professional rights and organises apprenticeship. The law clerks have their own specific community, professional and cultural practices, among which theatre takes a major role. It is necessary to consider the Basoche theatre as an extension of the didactic practices of this corporation. Their judiciary practices (especially the "causes grasses") and their theatre practices are linked, and are transmitted among their trade community, warrant of the cultural heritage of the legal professions. The farces and sotties played by the law clerks reveal a proper basochial culture, where a carnivalesque spirit thrives, where the political satire takes a prime place, nurturing a strong "esprit de corps", a pronounced inclination towards intellectual reasoning, a certain degree of anti-clericalism and an obvious form of materialism. These theatre representations are controlled by the Paris Parliament, which nonetheless takes a benevolent and protecting attitude towards the "Basochiens" at the beginning of the XVlth century. Among the authors connected with the Basoche one counts Guillaume Coquillart, Martial d'Auvergne, Pierre Gringore, Jehan Bouchet, Jehan d'Abondance, André de la Vigne, Roger de Collerye, François Habert and Clément Marot

Les suppliques reçues et les lettres émises par la Chancellerie apostolique entre le xiie et le xive siècle attestent la reconnaissance de l’invalidité par l’institution pontificale. Elles actent l’existence d’une infirmité physique ou mentale et autorisent le suppliant à adapter ses missions de clerc ou de chrétien en fonction de ses capacités. Ces documents se situent à la frontière entre une parole institutionnelle et des sources de la pratique. La sollicitation provoque une intense et complexe production épistolaire, mettant en évidence les acteurs engagés dans ce processus – les individus invalides et les personnels curial et ecclésiastique. Elle dévoile les législations spécifiques à l’institution et entraîne une définition de l’infirmité par la Chancellerie pontificale, catégorisant les corps invalides selon leur condition physique ou mentale. Les réponses de la Curie, basées sur la tradition de compilation de cas similaires, connus par le droit et l’enregistrement, confirment la reconnaissance de la condition de personne infirme. Les suppliques et les lettres constituent ainsi un excellent laboratoire d’analyse pour étudier le handicap médiéval dans sa relation à la papauté comme institutionThe petitions received and the letters sent by the Papal Chancery between the 12th-14th century attest the recognition of invalidity by the Papacy. They acknowledge the existence of a physical or mental infirmity and allow the supplicant to adapt his missions of cleric or Christian according to his abilities. These documents lie at the boundary between the institutional word and practical sources. Supplicant’s solicitations bring about an intense and complex epistolary production, whose main actors are the disabled individuals and the curial and ecclesiastical personnel. They reveal the specific legislation of the institution and lead to a definition of infirmity by the Papal Chancery, one that categorizes invalid bodies according to their physical or mental condition. Curia’s replies to solicitations, based on a case law system, constitute further evidence of the recognition of the disabled person’s condition. The supplications and letters thus constitute an excellent laboratory of analysis to study medieval disability in its relation to the Papacy as an institution

Full textAbstract:
Iris Clert (1918-1986) est une figure emblématique du monde de l'art contemporain parisien de la seconde moitié du XXe siècle, et plus particulièrement des années 1960. L'histoire de l'art semble n’avoir retenu que des bribes de son existence et de la galerie d'art contemporain qu'elle dirigea à Paris de 1956 à 1982. En effet, sa postérité repose exclusivement sur la place considérable qu'elle a tenue dans la promotion de l’oeuvre d'Yves Klein et dans l'émergence du groupe d'artistes des Nouveaux-Réalistes. Pourtant, Iris Clert n’est-elle pas la première galeriste à avoir proposé au public parisien des oeuvresd’Ad Reinhardt, Lucio Fontana et Leon Golub ? Puis, à force de renouveler et de transgresser les méthodes et pratiques habituellement assignées à sa profession, Iris Clert n’annonce-t-elle pas l’élan pris par l’art vers la participation et l'événementiel ? N’est-elle pas à l’origine de véritables politiques culturelles ? N’a-t-elle pas été elle-même une artiste ? Aussi, à force de se raconter et de s'identifier à l'art, n’a-t-elle pas tenté de se construire une mythologie personnelle, afin d’apparaître telle l’œuvre de sa galerie ? Faire de l’art une attitude de vie, provoquer, scandaliser, formuler des revendications ambiguës, se jouer des normes, se fier à son instinct plus qu'à la raison, être partout sans limites… voici les ambitions d’Iris Clert, elle qui affirmait en 1975 : « J’ai un destin, je suis la messagère des dieux, donc des artistes ! »Iris Clert (1918-1986) is a key figure in the world of the Parisian contemporary art of the sixties. Art history seems to have only kept recollection of fragments of her life and of the contemporary art gallery she ran in Paris from 1956 to 1982. Her posterity is only based on the significant part she played in promoting Yves Klein’s art and New Realism artists.Though, isn’t Iris Clert the first gallery owner who introduced the Parisian audience with Ad Reinhardt, Lucio Fontana and Leon Golub’s art? By keeping reinventing and breaking the usual methods and habits of her field, she anticipates the impulse of art towards participation and events. Wasn’t she the spearhead of a true cultural policy and an actual artist herself? She then tried to build her own mythology by keeping identifying herself with art, to appear as the very work of her gallery. Iris Clert showed her ambitions by making art a way to conduct her life, acting in a provocative and outrageous way, expressing ambiguous demands, defying standards, trusting her instinct over her mind, and being unrestrictedly everywhere. Ambitions which made her say in 1975: “I have a destiny, I am the messenger of the gods, hence of artists”

Full textAbstract:
Incontestablement, Mgr Maxime Charles (1908-1993) est une des figures les plus marquantes du catholicisme en France au cours de la période de l’après-guerre, ainsi qu’en témoignent son action dans le milieu des étudiants parisiens entre 1944 et 1959 à travers le Centre Richelieu puis ses vingt-six années de rectorat à la basilique du Vœu national au Sacré-C��ur, sur la butte Montmartre, entre 1959 et 1985. Comment un tel prêtre a-t-il été formé ou, si l’on veut bien nommer « carlisme » son style si particulier, quelles sont les sources de ce « carlisme » ? Cette étude s’attache donc à remonter aux sources d’une vocation sacerdotale ainsi qu’à l’analyse d’une éducation cléricale reçue au petit séminaire de Paris, à Conflans, sur la commune de Charenton, entre 1922 et 1928, puis au séminaire universitaire des Carmes, au sein de l’Institut catholique de Paris, entre 1928 et 1935. En aval de ces années de formation proprement dites, cette étude se penche aussi sur les premières années de ministère de ce jeune prêtre devenu selon son souhait vicaire dans une paroisse ouvrière de la banlieue parisienne, à Malakoff, où il s’occupe surtout des œuvres de jeunesse. Conjointement à cette approche biographique, cette étude constitue un apport à l’histoire de l’éducation cléricale en France au cours de la période de l’entre-deux-guerres à travers l’étude du petit séminaire de Paris et surtout celle du séminaire universitaire des Carmes, fondé en 1919 par M. Jean Verdier, le futur cardinal-archevêque de Paris, et devenu en quelques années le meilleur séminaire de France. Enfin, cette étude constitue une réflexion sur le renouveau catholique en France dans les années vingt et trenteMgr Maxime Charles (1908-1993) is undoubtedly one of the most outstanding figures in post-war French Catholicism, as shown by his activity among Parisian students from 1944 to 1959 at the Centre Richelieu, and by his twenty-six years as rector, from 1959 to 1985, of the Sacred-Heart Basilica erected by a national vow on the hill of Montmartre. How was such a priest trained? If one may refer to his distinctive style as “Carlism”, what are its origins? This study seeks to trace the sources of a priestly vocation and to analyse the clerical education received at the Parisian minor seminary at Conflans, in the municipality of Charenton, from 1922 to 1928, and then, from 1928 to 1935, at the university seminary of les Carmes, part of the Institut catholique of Paris. In the wake of these years of formal education, the study also examines the first years of ministry of the young priest sent, at his request, to a parish in a working class suburb of Paris, at Malakoff, where he deals principally with youth movements. Together with this biographical approach, the study is a contribution to the history of clerical education in France between the wars, through observation of the minor seminary of Paris and, more particularly, the university seminary of les Carmes, founded in 1919 by Jean Verdier, the future Cardinal Archbishop of Paris, which had become in a few years the leading seminary in France. Finally, this study is a reflection on the catholic revival in France in the nineteen-twenties and thirties

La parròquia, poc valorada per la historiografia medieval, fou una la institució fonamental per a l'ordenació de la societat rural del bisbat de Girona entre els segles X i XIV. Constituïa un territori ben delimitat, els habitants del qual rebien els sagraments eclesiàstics dels clergues que regien l'església i, a través de l'obreria i dels obrers, participaven en la gestió del temple i de la seva economia. La parròquia va incidir directament en l'ordenació del poblament rural a través tant dels nuclis eclesials o "celleres" com dels masos dispersos pel terme d'una parròquia. A més, la parròquia era una important font de rendes: a través de la documentació generada pel bisbe de Girona, el delme era una renda en mans, sobretot, de senyors feudals, cavallers i importants institucions eclesiàstiques; els clergues parroquials només rebien les primícies i altres drets de menor valor. Finalment, la parròquia contribuí enormement a la configuració de les comunitats rurals de bona part del bisbat de Girona.The parish, undervalued by the medieval historiography, was a fundamental institution for the arrangement of the rural society of the diocese of Girona between the 10th and the 13th centuries. It was a well delimited territory, whose inhabitants received the ecclesiastic sacraments of the clergymen who ruled the church and, across the fabric fund and the churchwardens, they took part in the management of the parish and of its economy. The parish influenced directly in the organisation of the rural settlement not only through the ecclesiastical villages, or "celleres", but also through the isolated manses into the boundaries of the parish. Besides, the parish was an important source of revenues: through the documentation generated by the bishop of Girona, the tithe appears as a revenue mainly in hands of feudal lords, gentlemen and important ecclesiastic institutions; the parochial clergymen only were receiving the first fruits, or "primícies", and other rights of minor value. Finally, the parish contributed significantly in the rural communities configuration of most of the diocese of Girona.

Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse vise à analyser dans la contemporanéité (1980-2013) la trajectoire du catholicisme, dans le sillage de la microhistoire, par l’étude de ses acteurs, de ses territoires et de ses communautés, des modes de gouvernement ecclésial. Nous mettrons en lumière le paradoxe du tissu de l’Eglise locale qui se dilate et se morcelle, mais aussi se contracte et se polarise, obligeant l’Ordinaire, dans son gouvernement, à penser un changement de paradigme : passer du défi de la proximité à celui de l’unité, compte tenu de la pluralité des communautés et des territoires associés. Nous étudierons, pour appuyer nos analyses, les diocèses de Rennes, Autun et Fréjus-Toulon. Un glissement de la logique d’enclos à la dynamique de pôles centralisateurs sera appréhendé, parfois en tensions, par les acteurs d’Eglise, à la lumière de quatre enjeux structurant l’argumentation : le « biotope » (rural/urbain), la diversité communautaire, le militantisme et la question de l’identité (statuts des clercs, coresponsabilité, modalités de l’évangélisation, communautarisme…).L’histoire et la géographie sociale permettront de renouveler les problématiques de l’appartenance spatiale et religieuse en partant d’interrogations sur le territoire selon des indicateurs précis : réseaux de fidèles et des militants, apport des nouvelles communautés (effectifs, choix pastoraux, gouvernement), options épiscopales en faveur de tel territoire ou tel groupe ecclésial… Pour l’historien, l’espace peut être considéré comme un outil heuristique, dans lequel des changements d’échelle se sont imposés dans le temps court. En délimitant nos recherches (1980-2013), nous voulons nous attarder à l’intérieur d’espaces qui ne possèdent plus la relative homogénéité que l’histoire leur prêtait avant le XXème siècle.Nos recherches s’inscrivent dans une structure en trois parties. La première partie se veut avant tout contextuelle, à la lumière de la postmodernité et de la sécularisation qui modifient les modes d’appartenance à une religion déclarée par beaucoup en soins palliatifs. Nous analyserons les liens étroits entre le catholicisme et ses modes d’insertion territoriale (rural/urbain) à partir de nos diocèses de référence. Nous présenterons les dé/recompositions des formes de militantisme dans le diocèse de Rennes, terreau d’Action catholique de plus en plus stérile et laissant la place à une militance familialiste très urbaine.La seconde partie de la thèse abordera les enjeux de la gouvernance ecclésiale dans les trois diocèses d’étude. Nous étudierons, dans le temps court, l’évolution du « munus regendi » des évêques et des prêtres avec le croisement des générations, avec le principe de coresponsabilité et le développement différencié selon les diocèses du diaconat permanent et des laïcs en mission ecclésiale. Nous développerons tout particulièrement le cas toulonnais pour lequel peu d’études approfondies ont été réalisées.Enfin, la troisième partie mettra l’accent sur la problématique du développement croissant d’un catholicisme attestataire polarisé en quête de visibilité. Nous analyserons la genèse du Renouveau et sa trajectoire dans le diocèse de Rennes. Nous nous pencherons particulièrement sur la communauté de l’Emmanuel, sur sa promotion de la nouvelle évangélisation et l’intégralisme de ses modes pastoraux. Ensuite, fort d’une certaine fécondité sacerdotale et d’un dialogue chaotique avec Rome (Motu proprio en 1988 et 2007), la galaxie traditionaliste très hétéroclite reste le cadre de mutations contemporaines que nous étudierons dans les diocèses de Rennes et d’Autun. Enfin, nous changerons d’échelle en nous focalisant sur la ville-sanctuaire de Paray-le-Monial, pôle militant et laboratoire incubateur d’un « nouveau catholicisme », sur l’articulation entre les différents territoires (ville, sanctuaire, paroisse) et les acteurs en placeThis thesis aims at analysing, in the contemporary world (1980-2013), the trajectory of catholicism, in the wake of microhistory, through the study of its actors, its territories and its communities, the modes of ecclesial government. We will highlight the paradox of the fabric of the local Church which expands and fragments, but also contracts and polarizes, forcing the Ordinary, in his government, to think of a paradigm shift: from the challenge of proximity to the one of unity, taking into account the plurality of communities and associated territories. To support our analyses, we will study the dioceses of Rennes, Autun and Frejus-Toulon. A shift from the logic of enclosures to the dynamics of a centralizing pole will be apprehended, sometimes in tension, by Church actors, in the light of four issues structuring the argument: « biotope » (rural/urban), community diversity, activism and the question of identity (status of clerics, co-responsibility, modalities of evangelization, communautarism...).History and social geography will enable us to renew the problems of spatial and religious belonging by starting from questions about the territory according to precise indicators: networks of the faithful and militants, the contribution of new communities (numbers, pastoral strategies, government), episcopal options in favour of a particular territory or ecclesial group... For the historian, space can be considered as a heuristic tool, in which changes of scale have been imposed in short time. By delimiting our research (1980-2013), we want to focus on the interior of aeras that no longer possess the relative homogeneity that history lent them before the 20th century.Our research are presented in a three-part structure. The first part is intended above all to be contextual, in the light of postmodernity and secularization, which modify the modes of belonging to a religion declared by many in palliative care. We will analyse the close links between Catholicism and its modes of territorial integration (rural/urban) from our dioceses of reference. We will present the recompositions of the forms of militancy in the diocese of Rennes, a breeding ground for Catholic Action that is increasingly sterile and leaving room for very urban familyist militancy.The second part of this thesis will address the issues of ecclesial governance in our three dioceses of study. We will study, in the short time, the evolution of the « munus regendi » of bishops and priests with the crossing of generations; with the principle of co-responsibility and the differentiated development according to the dioceses of the permanent diaconate and of the laity in ecclesial mission. We will particularly develop the Toulon case for which few in-depth studies have been carried out.Finally, the third part will focus on the problem of the growing development of a polarized Catholic witness in search of visibility. We will analyze the genesis of the Renewal and its trajectory in the diocese of Rennes. We will look particularly at the Emmanuel community, its promotion of the new evangelization and the fundamentalism of its pastoral modes. Then, with a certain priestly fruitfulness and a chaotic dialogue with Rome (Motu proprio in 1988 and 2007), the very heterogeneous traditionalist galaxy remains the framework of contemporary mutations that we will study in the dioceses of Rennes and Autun. Finally, we will change scale by focusing on the city-sanctuary of Paray-le-Monial, militant pole and laboratory incubator of a « new Catholicism », on the articulation between the various territories (city, sanctuary, parish) and the actors in place
La modernidad desafía "parroquia civilización". Los cambios en espacial e institucional llevada a cabo por la Iglesia católica, entre ellos diócesis, son simples adaptaciones renovadas o por el contrario, inauguran un proceso de desarrollo en el centro de nuevas áreas de distribución, en particular con el creciente impacto de los nuevos jugadores? Las iglesias se vacían todas partes en Francia, pero las comunidades y diócesis han recuperado algunos lugares para hacer los pilares de las nuevas formas de práctica religiosa, si es posible, la supervivencia no sólo de la institución, sino también la transmisión de la fe. ¿Cuál es el proceso? ¿Es sostenible en el tiempo? ¿Con qué herramientas?

Full textAbstract:
The Anglican Church is experiencing a growing number of clergy who abuse alcohol, and this has made people to ask whether clergy still embody the image of God or if they are “alcoholics.” I therefore undertook to do a research on this problem to ascertain whether the church creates alcoholics or are alcoholics attracted to the ministry. Questionnaires designed for laity, clergy and the diocesan leadership were given to them to find out if alcohol and alcoholism is a problem to the church and what could be the cause of it. Realizing that the questionnaires may not be sufficient, five case studies we used. These case studies are real stories from different priests across Southern Africa. They are more detailed and shed a light to the problem of alcoholism among the clergy. Through the questionnaires and case studies, the researcher found that ministerial stress, family stress, financial problems, lack of recreational time and peer pressure contribute to clergy being alcoholics. Moreover, the diocesan leadership has not devised means to assist alcoholic priests on permanent bases. Sending an alcoholic priest to rehabilitation centres has been the modus operandi and there is no follow up from the leadership until the said priest relapses. Families of alcoholic clergy have been left to find their own ways of healing. The parish too, has not received much help. The question asked is how the parish heal and not take out its pain on a new priest who comes after the alcoholic priest. The researcher recommends that as part of the discernment process, a psychologist be involved to help to ascertain whether a candidate to ministry does / have exposure to alcohol and to what extend his condition can be a hindrance to performing his priestly calling. With many clergy, the signs were there when they went to the Discernment Conference and no one picked them up. And as part of clergy training and formation, the abuse of alcohol and its consequences should be discussed and on-going assistance should be accessible to both clergy and their families. Though this research was not aimed at stopping priests from being alcoholics, the researcher hopes that it helps the clergy to realize what alcohol do to their ministry, families and themselves so that they can make wise choices when it comes to taking alcohol.Thesis (PhD)--University of Pretoria, 2011.

In its first part, the present thesis deals with the history and development of the deacon service in Church. It consists of distinguishing of terms such as marriage, priesthood, celibacy and diaconate. Furthermore, it deals with the role and the importance of clergymen celibacy and the development of the ecclesiastical attitude towards women. The second part focuses on the impact of the deacon service on the family life of the permanent deacons and it examines the way it is perceived by their wives. The findings are based on the results of questionnaires and they are subsequently arranged into individual sections. The sections consist of the parts called "I (deacon's wife)" - "Children" - "Parish" - "Clergy". The aim of the thesis was gained with the assessment and the classification of the research results based on questionnaires and their subsequent presentation. The presentation conducts a survey of the situation in such families from the perspective of the permanent deacons' wives, in other words, it charts the situation of the families whose father is a permanent deacon.

Full textAbstract:
Parish clergy and religious change in Prague's diocese from Council of Trent till the end of the 17th century The religious change that happens in Bohemia in the 17th century has no equivalent in the Europe at this time: the whole country, where Catholics were in a very minority, comes back to the roman Church. This evolution is here seen from a very prosaic point of view: how lay people live this change, and so how acts the parish clergy in this matter. Conversion's strategy, at the end of the Council of Trent, was to permit the use of the chalice to the laity. The consequence of this permission was a very hazy situation in the parishes, but Holy See did nothing before the battle of White Mountain, and after the battle, he suppressed chalice, mainly for pastoral reasons. During the Thirty years War, the kingdom is the place of a general reform, which has its origins in the catholic missionary movement of the beginning of the century and in the political theories of this time. Bohemia is strongly marked by the war that acts as a catalyst; at the same time political and religious authorities were lacking. The inhabitants, usually just formal Catholics at the beginning, convert themselves more and more deeply during the 17th century. The eldest, who remembered the non-Catholics services, died during the...
