Abstract

Die heiligen Bischöfe Bruno, Heribert und Anno von Köln sowie Bernward und Godehard von Hildesheim erfahren eine intensive Verehrung. Ihre romanischen Darstellungen werden in dieser interdisziplinären und gattungsübergreifenden Studie daraufhin befragt, wie sie in welchen Kontexten dargestellt werden und wie ihre Heiligkeit und Verehrung Betrachtern und Auftraggebern gegenüber im Bild präsentiert wird. 00Im 12. Jahrhundert werden mehrere ottonische Bischöfe heiliggesprochen, deren Wirkungs- und Verehrungszeit der Investiturstreit trennt. Darüber hinaus zeichnen sie sich als Klostergründer und Reichsbischöfe besonders aus. Die Autorin untersucht nach einer historischen Einführung in Leben und Wirken sowie Heiligsprechung und Verehrung der hier ausgewählten Kölner und Hildesheimer Bischöfe die Kunstwerke des 12. Jahrhunderts, deren Aufgabe es war, den jeweiligen Bischof als Heiligen darzustellen und seine Heiligkeit dem Auftraggeber und dem Rezipienten entsprechend zu akzentuieren. Es werden sowohl architektonische Umgestaltungen des Kirchenraumes, die der Heiligsprechung vorausgehen oder folgen, als auch Bildwerke betrachtet, seien es Neuschöpfungen, seien es Umarbeitungen, um die ihnen zugrundeliegende Strategie der Kultvermittlung herauszuarbeiten.

Abstract

Raterio, monaco di Lobbes e poi vescovo di Verona, compose la «Qualitatis coniectura» ormai settantenne, nel 966; di lì a poco sarà definitivamente allontanato dal soglio episcopale veronese. Opera di problematica definizione, incerta tra una tentazione di autobiografismo e la necessità di difendersi dalle accuse dei numerosi detrattori, la «Qualitatis coniectura» è soprattutto il vivido ritratto di un mondo lontano, ma anche singolarmente attuale: attraverso una narrazione brillante e ironica ritorna a vivere davanti ai nostri occhi la figura del suo autore, uno degli intellettuali più complessi e affascinanti nell'Europa del secolo X.

Abstract

Thomas Cranmer (1489-1556) was the first Anglican Archbishop of Canterbury, the author of the Book of Common Prayer, and a central figure in the English Protestant Reformation. Few theologians have led such an eventful life: Cranmer helped Henry VIII break with the pope, pressed his vision of the Reformation through the reign of Edward VI, was forced to recant under Queen Mary, and then dramatically withdrew his recantations before being burned alive. This gripping biography by Leslie Winfield Williams narrates Cranmer's life from the beginning, through his education and history with the monarchy, to his ecclesiastical trials and eventual martyrdom. She portrays Cranmer's ongoing struggle to reconcile his two central beliefs -- loyalty to the crown and loyalty to the Reformation faith -- as she tells his fascinating life story.

Abstract

"Dans cet essai, Marie-Françoise Basiez explique comment les évêques des premiers siècles, que leurs lettres révèlent comme des hommes de relation et d'échange, ont peu à peu structuré un christianisme éclaté et pluriel. On y découvre une "Église des réseaux", construisant son unité dans la diversité, en communion par la communication. Ces évêques furent de grands épistoliers, qui écrivaient à leurs communautés des lettres informatives et réactives, surtout dans les moments de crise, et qui s'écrivirent beaucoup entre eux en créant les conditions de fonctionnement d'une Église synodale. Rapportant les débats, affrontements et ruptures qui agitaient les chrétientés locales, les correspondances épiscopales, souvent peu connues et en partie inédites, donnent accès à un monde complexe et foisonnant en posant les fondations d'un gigantesque édifice, l'Église catholique."--Page 4 of cover.

Abstract

"This work is a social history of religion in colonial Newfoundland and Labrador that focuses on the career of Edward Feild, Anglican bishop from 1844 to 1876, as a way of exploring the interaction between religious authority and popular spirituality in the context of British colonialism. Feild was an acolyte of Tractarianism (a movement of High Church Anglicans that originated at Oxford University in the 1830s) and, during his lengthy tenure as bishop, attempted to introduce Tractarian theology and practices into the colony. He met considerable resistance from the local population, however, many of whom adhered to more Evangelical forms of Protestantism and resented the imposition of the colonial church hierarchy on their patterns of worship and religious life. This study endeavours to explain the popular resistance to Feild's initiatives and the reasons for, and consequences of, his failures. In so doing, Hollett challenges the traditional view of Bishop Field's stint as bishop of Newfoundland, which has tended to mphasise his successes. The study is structured geographically, with chapters devoted to each of the regions of Newfoundland and Labrador where Feild engaged in missionary activities. The argument is supported by extensive archival research, including against-the-grain readings of official church publications, periodicals, correspondence, and other sources, allowing for a detailed and nuanced analysis of the local controversies and conflicts from the perspective of the parishioners in each region. At the same time, Bishop Feild's experience in Newfoundland is part of a much larger story about religion and the British Empire, and as such it has relevance beyond Newfoundland. It should be of interest not only to historians of Newfoundland but also to historians of religion (especially of Anglicanism and Protestantism) and historians of the British Empire."--
