Abstract

The contributors to this inspiring anthology meet the challenge that everyone faces: that of becoming a whole person in both their personal and professional lives. John C. Haughey, SJ, has gathered twelve professionals in higher education from a variety of disciplines -- philosophy, theology, health care, business, and administration. What they have in common reflects the creative understanding of the meaning of ""catholic"" as Haughey has found it to operate in Catholic higher education. Each essay in the first six chapters describes how its author has assembled a unique whole from within his

Abstract

The theme of The Church and the arts presents a vast, complex and exciting challenge. The thirty-four responses to this challenge included here are so varied and original that the volume could well serve as an introduction to others on the Church and Music, or Art, or Architecture, or Iconography, or Tomb Sculpture, or the Novel, or Poetry, or the Cinema, or Drama, or even Church Decor and Furnishings, or Church Books and Vestments. The subjects range from Byzantine images and Carolingian illuminated manuscripts to the zodiacal images on a font at Hook Norton, Oxfordshire, and on to the illustrations for the Bishops' Bible ; from fifteenth-century Netherlands composers via Bach and nineteenth-century plainsong to Leonard Bernstein's Chichester Psalms; from twelfth-century treatises to the poetry of Isaac Watts and on to the novels of the twentieth-century navvy Patrick Macgill; from medieval tomb sculpture to the work of Elizabeth Frink, and all manner of ecclesiastical architecture. The book explores motives, connections, and attitudes - the piety, the patronage, and the politics which underpinned this achievement, the connections between image and indulgence, church decor and devotion, or between the sacred and the profane, and the attitude of the churches to a variety of artistic expression.

Abstract

"'Le prêtre joue au collège le même rôle qu'au régiment, on le supporte', écrit Émile Zola en 1877. Et dans ses Souvenirs d'enfance et de jeunesse, Ernest Renan rend hommage à ses maîtres du petit séminaire de Saint-Nicolas-du-Chardonnet à Paris. C'est que, dans la France des XIXe et XXe siècles, le prêtre-professeur constitue une figure importante pour l'Église et la société. Il fait partie des visages familiers du catholicisme de l'époque et marquera plusieurs générations. À travers cette évocation vivante, Marcel Launay décrit ce ministère oublié aujourd'hui, qui sera touché de plein fouet par la déchristianisation. Cette contribution à l'histoire du catholicisme contemporain nous plonge dans un monde disparu et croise la question scolaire, le rapport à la culture et le lien de l'Église aux élites et à la société." --
