Book Synopsis After Holy Cross, Only Notre Dame by : George Klawitter
Download or read book After Holy Cross, Only Notre Dame written by George Klawitter and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2003-10 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While seven religious men founded the University of Notre Dame in 1842, the history of its early years is generally told from Edward Sorin's point of view. This biography of Urbain Monsimer makes new use of archival material to approach the university from a different perspective. From his earliest years in Holy Cross until his death, Monsimer was a fascinating person, brightly intelligent, suspicious of authorities, hard on himself and those around him. Arriving in America at the age of 15, Monsimer quickly learned English and acclimated himself to American ways. After eight years at Notre Dame, he was sent to California on an ill-conceived venture to look for gold. Left on his own resources, he remained in the West as a miner until poor health forced him to return to his father's farm in France where he died in 1860.

Book Synopsis Early Men of Holy Cross by : George Klawitter
Download or read book Early Men of Holy Cross written by George Klawitter and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2016-10-21 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The religious congregation that came to be known as Holy Cross began in France when Basile Moreau joined the Brothers of St. Joseph to a small band of priests he had gathered to work in the diocese of Le Mans, France. The early Brothers of Holy Cross were an energetic group, dedicated to teaching in small parish schools. Eventually Moreau sent them to missions in Algeria and Indiana where they thrived, often under harsh pioneer conditions. Based on their letters, Klawitter has reconstructed the lives of eleven of these courageous men whose apostolic work brought hope to children on three continents. Often neglected by historians, these early religious deserve attention: they are the foundation of what has become a strong force in educational institutions around the world, in North and South America, Asia, and Africa.
Book Synopsis The Brothers of St. Joseph by : George Klawitter
Download or read book The Brothers of St. Joseph written by George Klawitter and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2019-08-26 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Brothers of St. Joseph in 2020 are celebrating the 200th anniversary of their founding. They grew out of a religious revival following the French Revolution, but their noteworthy contributions to religious schools in northwest France have been overlooked, and their leaders have gone unheralded. Brother Andre Mottais was responsible for their early growth, and Brother Vincent Pieau made a name for the Brothers in their American foundations, chiefly at Notre Dame. Overshadowed by the Holy Cross priests who joined ranks with the Brothers in 1837, the Brothers of St. Joseph nevertheless must be remembered as significant to the Roman Catholic Church in post-revolutionary France.
Book Synopsis A Saint of Our Own by : Kathleen Sprows Cummings
Download or read book A Saint of Our Own written by Kathleen Sprows Cummings and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2019-02-27 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What drove U.S. Catholics in their arduous quest, full of twists and turns over more than a century, to win an American saint? The absence of American names in the canon of the saints had left many of the faithful feeling spiritually unmoored. But while canonization may be fundamentally about holiness, it is never only about holiness, reveals Kathleen Sprows Cummings in this panoramic, passionate chronicle of American sanctity. Catholics had another reason for petitioning the Vatican to acknowledge an American holy hero. A home-grown saint would serve as a mediator between heaven and earth, yes, but also between Catholicism and American culture. Throughout much of U.S. history, the making of a saint was also about the ways in which the members of a minority religious group defined, defended, and celebrated their identities as Americans. Their fascinatingly diverse causes for canonization—from Kateri Tekakwitha and Elizabeth Ann Seton to many others that are failed, forgotten, or still under way—represented evolving national values as Catholics made themselves at home. Cummings's vision of American sanctity shows just how much Catholics had at stake in cultivating devotion to men and women perched at the nexus of holiness and American history—until they finally felt little need to prove that they belonged.

Book Synopsis Prep School Days the Seminary at the University of Notre Dame by : MR Andrew L. Stevans
Download or read book Prep School Days the Seminary at the University of Notre Dame written by MR Andrew L. Stevans and published by . This book was released on 2012-08-01 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PREP SCHOOL DAYS, The Seminary at the University of Notre Dame When reading PREP SCHOOL DAYS, it quickly becomes obvious that Holy Cross Seminary was no place for wimps. Many of the resident Priests at Holy Cross were not only gifted teachers but superb athletes who had "been there." While they were providing seminarians the opportunity to experience spiritual growth, to play hard, but fair, on the playing field and to develop a life-long work/study ethic, the young men were attempting to adapt to a strict seminary regimen while living on the campus of a world-famous, Catholic university. The author's intention had always been to "give back" to Holy Cross and Notre Dame for an unparalleled life experience and education. Over the years this prompted recording memories that became several dozen abstracts of his personal experiences at "the Little Sem." PREP SCHOOL DAYS' actual journey began following a Holy Cross reunion in 2000, held at Notre Dame. An alumni friend urged the author to put pen to paper and elaborate on his perceptions of Holy Cross. Not long after the writing effort began, a spirit of cooperation sprung up among the Congregation of Holy Cross. Priests at Notre Dame, some who had attended Holy Cross, showed an interest in the project. Offers to read and edit the manuscript were received. Several former seminarians volunteered to verify story time and place. Even the Sisters of Notre Dame became interested in the effort. Over recent months PREP SCHOOL DAYS has received dozens of supportive emails and letters from around the country, from former Holy Cross classmates and their families, and from Holy Cross Priests and Notre Dame alumni and faculty... "I applaud the work of Andrew Stevans to celebrate the fine, whole-person education provided by the Congregation of Holy Cross at its Prep Seminary ("The Little Sem") on the Notre Dame campus. Many of my colleagues in Holy Cross speak with great affection of their days there and of the committed religious who prepared them so well for life and ministry. These are stories that need to be told." Monk Malloy, C.S.C., President Emeritus, University of Notre Dame

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Blantz’s monumental The University of Notre Dame: A History tells the story of the renowned Catholic university’s growth and development from a primitive grade school and high school founded in 1842 by the Congregation of Holy Cross in the wilds of northern Indiana to the acclaimed undergraduate and research institution it became by the early twenty-first century. Its growth was not always smooth—slowed at times by wars, financial challenges, fires, and illnesses. It is the story both of a successful institution and of the men and women who made it so: Father Edward Sorin, the twenty-eight-year-old French priest and visionary founder; Father William Corby, later two-term Notre Dame president, who gave absolution to the soldiers of the Irish Brigade at the Battle of Gettysburg; the hundreds of Holy Cross brothers, sisters, and priests whose faithful service in classrooms, student residence halls, and across campus kept the university progressing through difficult years; a dedicated lay faculty teaching too many classes for too few dollars to assure the university would survive; Knute Rockne, a successful chemistry teacher but an even more successful football coach, elevating Notre Dame to national athletic prominence; Father Theodore M. Hesburgh, president for thirty-five years; the 325 undergraduate young women who were the first to enroll at Notre Dame in 1972; and thousands of others. Blantz captures the strong connections that exist between Notre Dame’s founding and early life and today’s university. Alumni, faculty, students, friends of the university, and fans of the Fighting Irish will want to own this indispensable, definitive history of one of America’s leading universities. Simultaneously detailed and documented yet lively and interesting, The University of Notre Dame: A History is the most complete and up-to-date history of the university available.

Book Synopsis The History of the Congregation of Holy Cross by : James T. Connelly C.S.C.
Download or read book The History of the Congregation of Holy Cross written by James T. Connelly C.S.C. and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2020-12-15 with total page 686 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1837, Basile Moreau, C.S.C., founded the Congregation of Holy Cross (C.S.C.), a community of Catholic priests and brothers, to minister to and educate the people of France devastated by the French Revolution. During the centuries that followed, the Congregation expanded its mission around the globe to educate and evangelize, including the establishment in 1842 of the Congregation’s first educational institution in America—the University of Notre Dame. This sweeping book, written by the skilled historian and archivist James T. Connelly, C.S.C., offers the first complete history of the Congregation, covering nearly two centuries from 1820 to 2018. Throughout this volume, Connelly focuses on the ministry of the Congregation rather than on its ministers, although some important individuals are discussed, including Jacques-François Dujarié; Sr. Mary of the Seven Dolors, M.S.C.; André Bessette, C.S.C.; and Edward Sorin, C.S.C. Within a few short years of founding the Congregation, Moreau sent the priests, brothers, and sisters from France to Algeria, the United States, Canada, Italy, and East Bengal. Connelly chronicles in great detail the suppression of all religious orders in France in 1903 and demonstrates how the Congregation shifted its subsequent expansion efforts to North America. Numerous educational institutions, parishes, and other ministries were founded in the United States and Canada during these decades. In 1943, Holy Cross again extended its work to South America. With the most recent establishment of a religious presence in the Philippines in 2008, Holy Cross today serves in sixteen different countries on five continents. The book describes the beatification of Basil Moreau, C.S.C, on September 15, 2007, and the canonization of André Bessette, C.S.C. on October 17, 2010. The book will interest C.S.C. members and historians of Catholic history. Anyone who wants to learn about the origins of the University of Notre Dame will want to read this definitive history of the Congregation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is a distinctive, multidisciplinary encyclopedia covering the cultural, political, economic, musical, and literary impact that Ireland and the nations of the Americas have had on one another since the time of Brendan the Navigator. Ireland and the Americas: Culture, Politics, and History aims to broaden the traditional notion of 'Irish-American' beyond Boston, New York, and Chicago. In additional to full coverage of Irish culture in those settings, it reveals the pervasive Irish influence in everything from the settling of the American West, to the spread of Christianity throughout the hemisphere, to Irish involvement in revolutionary movements from the American colonies to Mexico to South America. In addition, the encyclopedia shows the profound impact of Irish Americans on their homeland, in everything from art and literature informed by the emigrant experience, to efforts by Irish Americans to influence Irish politics. Ranging from colonial times to the present, and informed by the surge of academic interest in the past 30 years, Ireland and the Americas is the definitive resource on the profound ties that bind the cultures of Ireland, the United States, Canada, and Latin America.

Book Synopsis American Priest by : Wilson D. Miscamble, C.S.C.
Download or read book American Priest written by Wilson D. Miscamble, C.S.C. and published by Image. This book was released on 2019-03-12 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A provocative new biography probes deeply into the storied life of Father Ted Hesburgh, the well-loved but often controversial president of Notre Dame University. Considered for many decades to be the most influential priest in America, Rev. Theodore M. Hesburgh, played what many consider pivotal roles in higher education, the Catholic Church, and national and international affairs. American Priest examines his life and his many and varied engagements—from the university he led for thirty-five years to his associations with the Vatican and the White House—and evaluates the extent and importance of his legacy. Author and Notre Dame priest-professor Wilson D. Miscamble tracks how Hesburgh transformed Catholic higher education in the postwar era and explores how he became a much-celebrated voice in America at large. Yet, beyond the hagiography that often surrounds Hesburgh’s legacy lies another more complex and challenging story. What exactly were his contributions to higher learning; what was his involvement in the civil rights movement; and what was the nature of his role as advisor to popes and presidents? Understanding Hesburgh’s life and work illuminates the journey that the Catholic Church traversed over the second half of the twentieth century. Exploring and evaluating Hesburgh’s importance, then, contributes not only to the colorful history of Notre Dame but also to comprehending the American Catholic experience. Praise for American Priest “An excellent, engaging biography . . . [Miscamble] deftly captures the ‘whole Hesburgh’ in a fair and thorough portrait.” —Catholic Philly “Excellent . . . the story that Father Miscamble tells is an all-American story—the rise of a Catholic of relatively modest background, close to his immigrant roots, to a place of prominence among the nation’s elite.” —Public Discourse
