Download or read book The Church of Cathedral and Crusade, Volume 1 written by Henri Daniel-Rops and published by . This book was released on 2023-05-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Church of Cathedral and Crusade is the third installment in Henri Daniel-Rops' monumental History of the Church of Christ. This volume includes the first seven chapters of that work, surveying the salient characteristics of the period 1050 to 1350; the religious foundation of the age and its expressions in prayer and pilgrimage, liturgy and sacrament; the archetype of medieval manhood, St. Bernard of Clairvaux; the leavening labors of reform and renewal by Popes Gregory VII and Paschal II and Sts. Francis of Assisi and Dominic de Guzman; the relationship between Church and State, popes and monarchs, and ecclesial and secular hierarchies; the governmental model of the medieval Church and its effects on the moral and material economies; and the tension between such Christian ideals as fidelity, humility, and charity (symbolized by St. Louis IX) and those all-too-human realities of impetuosity, vanity, and violence. Spectacular in scope and detail, The Church of Cathedral and Crusade presents Christ-endom in "the springtime of its youth" in which it "built the cathedrals, compiled the summae, embarked on the crusades, spread and intensified the Gospel message; while the Church's power reached heights hitherto unexplored, and she herself became the guide of human thought." The cause of this incomparable creativity? Simply, on Daniel-Rops' studied assessment, that "from the lowest to the highest, society believed."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Church of Cathedral and Crusade is the third installment in Henri Daniel-Rops' monumental History of the Church of Christ. This volume includes the last seven chapters of that work, surveying the rise of the universities and triumph of scholasticism in Sts. Bonaventure and Thomas Aquinas; the emergence of that "perfect expression of a faith," the cathedral; the callings, conflicts, and controversies of the Crusades; the ascent to glory and decline into schism in the Christian East; the adventures and agonies of missionary efforts to expand the Christian sheepfold; the heretical rendings in the fabric of Christianity by Manicheanism and Albigensianism; and the tumultuous, at times outrageous, closing of the age, at which the Church yet speaks the last word-above the indignity of antipopes and the putrefying horror of the Black Death rises another glorious witness to the living Word: Dante Aligheri and the Divine Comedy. Spectacular in scope and detail, The Church of Cathedral and Crusade presents Christ-endom in "the springtime of its youth" in which it "built the cathedrals, compiled the summae, embarked on the crusades, spread and intensified the Gospel message; while the Church's power reached heights hitherto unexplored, and she herself became the guide of human thought." The cause of this incomparable creativity? Simply, on Daniel-Rops' studied assessment, that "from the lowest to the highest, society believed."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The History of the Crusades in 3 volumes is a historical work by French historian Joseph François Michaud which provides a comprehensive look at the Crusades, including political and military battles in Europe, North Africa, and Asia Minor. The Crusades were a series of religious wars initiated, supported and sometimes directed by the Latin Church in the medieval period, especially the campaigns between 1096 and 1271 in the Eastern Mediterranean aimed at recovering the Holy Land from Islamic rule. Michaud expands the term of Crusades, including in his work the wars against Turks in Europe in 13th, 14th, and 15th century, concluding with his reflections on the state of Europe, on the various classes of society, during and after the crusades.
Book Synopsis The Church and the Middle Ages (1000–1378) by : Steve Weidenkopf
Download or read book The Church and the Middle Ages (1000–1378) written by Steve Weidenkopf and published by Ave Maria Press. This book was released on 2020-12-25 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few periods of history are more maligned and misunderstood than the Middle Ages—three-hundred years of division, shifting centers of power, and tensions both within the Church and also between the Church and the secular rulers of the time. In an engaging and easy-to-understand style, historian and author Steve Weidenkopf highlights some of our greatest saints—Francis, Dominic, Anselm, Aquinas, and Catherine of Siena—and dispels nine commonly accepted misconceptions about the era, which was an exciting period of enduring faith, reform, cultural achievement, as well as defeat and division. With vibrant accounts of pivotal events and inspiring stories of the people who shaped the Church during the eleventh through fourteenth centuries, Steve Weidenkopf provides a clearer picture of an era where critics used events such as the Crusades and the relocation of the papacy to France to undermine the Church. The period also provided the hallmarks of Christian civilization—universities, cathedrals, castles, and various religious orders. Weidenkopf also chronicles the development of Christian civilization in Europe and explores the contributions of St. Bruno, St. Anthony of Padua, and St. Bridget of Sweden. In The Church and the Middle Ages, you will learn that: Most Crusaders were motivated by piety and service, not greed. Heresy was both a church and civil issue and medieval inquisitors were focused on the eternal salvation of the accused. The Church preached against the mistreatment of Jews. Priestly celibacy was practiced long before the twelfth century. Serfs were never kept as slaves. Books in the Reclaiming Catholic History series, edited by Mike Aquilina and written by leading authors and historians, bring Church history to life, debunking the myths one era at a time.
Book Synopsis Cathedral and Crusade by : Henri Daniel-Rops
Download or read book Cathedral and Crusade written by Henri Daniel-Rops and published by . This book was released on 1957 with total page 668 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deals with the period 1050-1350, an age that saw the rise of Norman and Gothic architecture; the birth of the universities; the development of Christian philosophy and theology; the advance of material civilization to a degree hitherto unrecognized; and, above all, the conversion of northern, central and eastern Europe. After summarizing the period in question and reviewing that faith which permeated and inspired the acitivity of men high and low, the author proceeds to study in detail special aspects of those three centuries. There are fascinating chapters on St. Bernard of Clairvaux, on medieval reforms within the Church, on relations between Church and State, on medieval morality, on the Church's role in the domain of thought, on the building of the Cathedrals, on the Byzantine Schism, on the Crusades, on the seldom-told story of the missions, on heresy and the debacle of the fourteenth century.

Book Synopsis Eternity Today, Vol. 1 by : Martin Connell
Download or read book Eternity Today, Vol. 1 written by Martin Connell and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2006-11-01 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to Dom Gregory Dix, the basic shape of the Christian liturgy has remained the same "ever since thirteen men met for supper in an upper room at Jerusalem" some two thousand years ago. According to Martin Connell, the same cannot be said for the liturgical year. The Triduum, or three days of Easter, only emerged in the fourth century. So, too, did Christmas. Earlier, Epiphany was the birthday of the Savior. Although a pre-Easter fast of variable length was observed since earliest times, the precise Forty Day span only appeared, once again, in the fourth century. And that foundational fourth century also saw the beginnings of the observance of Advent, which actually took centuries to catch on. As Connell demonstrates in this fascinating book, the varieties of Christian observance emerged in local communities stretching from Gaul to India and were often born in the struggles that were define orthodoxy and heresy. Eternity Today is a vade mecum for anyone who wishes to observe the liturgical year with intelligent devotion. Throughout, Connell aims to recover the theology and spirituality of the Christian year. As an aid to reflection, he incorporates numerous selections of contemporary poetry, thereby demonstrating how secular poets can often hit upon a point that finds its echo in Christian life and ritual. Eternity Today: The Liturgical Year, Volume 1 covers Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, Candlemas, and Ordinary Time.

Some of the buildings have been published before, but many others are published here for the first time.
