The Pope's Body
Author: Agostino Paravicini-BaglianiPublisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 9780226034379
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 448
Book Description
In contrast to the role traditionally fulfilled by secular rulers, the pope has been perceived as an individual person existing in a body subject to decay and death, yet at the same time a corporeal representation of Christ and the Church, eternity and salvation. Using an array of evidence from the eleventh through the fifteenth centuries, Agostino Paravicini- Bagliani addresses this paradox. He studies the rituals, metaphors, and images of the pope's body as they developed over time and shows how they resulted in the expectation that the pope's body be simultaneously physical and metaphorical. Also included is a particular emphasis on the thirteenth century when, during the pontificate of Boniface VIII (1294-1303), the papal court became the focus of medicine and the natural sciences as physicians devised ways to protect the pope's health and prolong his life. Masterfully translated from the Italian, this engaging history of the pope's body provides a new perspective for readers to understand the papacy, both historically and in our own time.

Pilgrimage from Rome

Pages : 180
Book Description
"If anyone had told me the things I know now about the Catholic Church when I was a seminarian or a young priest, I would have been outraged, would have plugged my ears, or would have run. I would not have believed such charges and would have regarded them as authored by the devil. I had been brain-washed against all such things. At sixteen years of age, I entered the seminary where I applied myself diligently, and at the age of twenty-eight, I was ordained a Roman Catholic priest in the Discalced Carmelite Order. Then I went forth into the field, doing as I was told, wanting nothing more than to increase the Church, desiring to live and die a Catholic priest and perhaps even become a saint. I had been a priest about five years when a change began to come over my life. I was not at peace." - Back cover.
