Father Hesburgh ( The Hesburgh Papers: Higher Values in Higher Education , LJ 6/15/79) should be on almost everyone's list of the most influential figures in American higher education over the past few decades. In these fascinating memoirs, he chronicles the transformation of Notre Dame from a somewhat mediocre mid western university into a major national teaching and research institution. As president of Notre Dame for 35 years, he used that position as a platform to argue the truly critical issues not only within the academy, but outside as well. The chapters on his involvement with the Civil Rights movement (he was a member of the U.S. Civil Rights Commission) and criticism of early Vatican policy on academic freedom at Catholic universities are most compelling. Recommended for all readers, especially in these days of seeming cynicism and doubt. - From Library Journal. 331 pages.., New York, NY, U.S.A.: Doubleday Publishing, 1990, 0, Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1993. xiii, 305 pages, illustrations; 23 cm. Tight, clean copy. "Michelangelo, Raphael, Bramante-together these artists created some of the most glorious treasures of the Vatican, viewed daily by thousands of tourists. But how many visitors understand the way these artworks reflect the passions, dreams, and struggles of the popes who commissioned them. For anyone making an artistic pilgrimage to the High Renaissance splendors of the Vatican, George L. Hersey's book is the ideal guide. Before starting the tour of individual works, Hersey describes how the treacherously shifting political and religious alliances of sixteenth-century Italy, France, and Spain played themselves out in the Eternal City. He offers vivid accounts of the lives and personalities of four popes, each a great patron of art and architecture: Julius II, Leo X, Clement VII, and Paul III. He also tells of the complicated rebuilding and expanding of St. Peter's, a project in which Bramante, Raphael, and Michelangelo all took part. Having set the historical scene, Hersey then explores the Vatican's magnificent Renaissance art and architecture. In separate chapters, organized spatially, he leads the reader through the Cortile del Belvedere and Vatican Museums, with their impressive holdings of statuary and paintings; the richly decorated Stanze and Logge of Raphael; and Michelangelo's Last Judgment and newly cleaned Sistine Chapel ceiling. A fascinating final chapter entitled 'The Tragedy of the Tomb' recounts the vicissitudes of Michelangelo's projected funeral monument to Julius II. Hersey is never content to simply identify the subject of a painting or sculpture. He gives us the story behind the works, telling us what their particular themes signified at the time for the artist, the papacy, and the Church. He also indicates how the art was received by contemporaries and viewed by later generations. Generously illustrated and complete with a useful chronology, High Renaissance Art in St. Peter's and the Vatican is a valuable reference for any traveler to Rome or lover of Italian art who has yearned for a single-volume work more informative and stimulating than ordinary guidebooks. At the same time, Hersey's many anecdotes and intriguing comparisons with works outside the Vatican will provide new insights even for specialists." - Publisher. . Paperback.

The political and cultural upheavals of the time had a tremendous effect on the spiritual lives of Americans. In this epic survey, he pulls together the changes that occurred in organized and disorganized religious life during this turbulent decade, and shows where those changes came from, following in a chronological manner the religious news and events of the day. He recalls the unusual role religion played in the 1960 and 1964 presidential elections, the stunning results of the Second Vatican Council, the place of religion in the civil rights and antiwar movements, the emergence of Death of God theology, and the impact of religion on the counterculture. He also interprets what happened spiritually as an important and perhaps permanent shift in the character of American religion, from an institutionally determined to a more subjective experience of the divine., Rutgers University Press, 1994, 0, EDIZIONI MUSEI VATICANI.

'Mexicans! You have desired me! Your noble country, by the spontaneous expressions of the wishes of the majority,elected me to watch over the future of its destiny! I respond with happiness to this call.I shall hold the sceptre with confidence and the sword of honour with firmness.' So ran the official proclamation with which the thirty-one-year old Emperor Maximilian greeted his new subjects on his arrival in Mexico in 1864.At his side was his wife,the beautiful Belgian Princess Charlotte whom he took with him as the Empress Carlota: she was then not quite twenty-four.Three years later a deposed and wretched Maximilian was to ask a Mexican firing squad to 'aim well - aim right here' as he indicated his heart.This time Carlota was not at his side.She was in Europe,driven to insanity by those three tragic years wished upon them by European royalty - years not of peace which Maximilian desired so ardently to give Mexico,but of treachery, internecine war and butchery. In telling this story of one of history's most tragic couples Smith shows Maximilian as the last of the princely knights-errant.He colourfully and clearly draws the historical background to the Habsburgs' most exotic foray. Paris at its most brilliant,Vienna at its most extravagant and scenes set in the Vatican and the English and Belgian courts (involving nearly all the Royal families of the time) are contrasted with the ravaged wilderness of Mexico and the political imbroglio of that part of the New World over which Maximilian was meant to have reigned.Perhaps the most impressive attributes of Smith's book,however,are the splendid human portraits he draws of the three major figures in the drama - presented with sympathy and compelling psychological insight. Maximilian's romantic and idealistic qualities which made him so well loved,and Carlota's passionately ambitious involvement on his behalf, are seen as keys to their personalities - and contributors to their fate. The strength of their relationship survived their separation and even the death of Maximilian.Carlota lived on until 1927 and died a crazy eighty-seven-year-old inmate of a castle outside Brussels.From her mindless wilderness she wrote to her dead husband:'Your eyes look down from every place and I hear your voice everywhere.' The third major figure is the deposed President of Mexico,the full-blooded Mexican Indian, Juarez. Also a man of great principle and honour,and determined to drive the foreign invaders from his land,he was eventually compelled to sign the death warrant of Maximilian - the man whom even he had to respect and admire.

This volume is about Pope Francis, the diplomat. In his eight years of pontificate, Pope Francis as a peacemaker has propagated the ideas of human and divine cooperation to build a global human fraternity through his journeys outside the Vatican. This book discusses his endeavors to connect and develop a common peaceful international order between countries, faith communities, and even antagonistic communities through a peaceful journey of human beings. The book analyses his speeches, and meetings as a diplomat of peace, including his visits to Cuba and the United States, his mediations for peace in Colombia, Myanmar, Kenya, Egypt, Turkey, Jordan, Jerusalem, the Central African Republic, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh. It discusses the role of Pope Francis as mediator in different circumstances through his own writings, letters, and Vatican documents; his encounters with world leaders; as well as his contributions to a universal understanding on inter-faith dialogue, climate change and the environment, human migration and the refugee crisis. The volume also sheds light on his ideas on a post pandemic just social order, as summarised in his 2020 encyclical. A definitive work on the diplomacy and the travels of Pope Francis, this volume will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of religious studies, peace and conflict studies, ethics and philosophy, political science and international relations. It will be of great interest to the general reader as well., 6, Crisis Publications. Hardcover. New/No Jacket. Foreword by Bishop Athanasius SchneiderIt took nearly two millennia for the enemies of the Catholic Church to realize they could not successfully attack the Church from the outside. Indeed, countless nemeses from Nero to Napoleon succeeded only in creating sympathy and martyrs for our Catholic Faith. That all changed in the mid-19th century, when clandestine societies populated by Modernists and Marxists hatched a plan to subvert the Catholic Church from within. Their goal: to change Her doctrine, Her liturgy, and Her mission.In this captivating and carefully documented book, Dr. Taylor Marshall pulls back the curtain on their nefarious plan, showing how these enemies of Christ strategically infiltrated the seminaries, then the priesthood, then the episcopacy, and eventually the cardinal-electors all with the eventual goal of electing one of their own as pope.Youll come to see that the seemingly endless scandals plaguing the Church are not the result, as so many think, of cultural changes, or of Vatican II, but rather the natural consequences of an orchestrated demonic plot to destroy the Church.

The election of a new pope always captures the world's attention, as all eyes turn to the chimney atop the Sistine Chapel, where the color of the smoke is our only clue to the secret deliberations inside. In this fascinating volume, former Vatican insider John-Peter Pham takes us where outsiders have never gone before, providing vital background to the selection of the heir of the fisherman. Here is a highly accurate portrait of the modern Vatican-indeed, the only account to reveal the striking changes to papal succession procedures made by Pope John Paul II. Blending political and ecclesiastical history, Pham goes beyond a mere description of the complex rituals-including a rare insight into the dramatic shifts inside the College of Cardinals, whose 130 members now hail from 57 nations around the globe. Pham takes us into the secret conclave (from the Latin cum clave, &quot;with key&quot;), where the electors are kept under lock and key, incommunicado, until they have selected a new pope. Here we find a fascinating chronicle of political intrigue set in the context of ritual-including a chapter devoted to the intrigues of the 20th century where the first conclave had an emperor's veto and the last was won by the first non-Italian in four centuries because the Italians were bitterly divided. In a most timely analysis, Pham also provides a valuable one-by-one assessment of the present-day cardinals and possible candidates (papabili, or pope-ables) to succeed John Paul II. He explores the legacy of this highly influential pope-looking beyond his papacy to discuss the highly-charged issues that his successor will have to confront, including financial and sexual scandals, the roles of priests and women, and the very future of the church itself. And throughout the book, he provides a gold mine of information that make this book an indispensable reference, including appendices that contain biographical notes on many of the key personalities of Catholicism past and present as well as a useful glossary of Catholic history and theology. Here then is an illuminating history and must-have guide to a vitally important world event, one that is moving ever closer and will be watched with intense interest by more than a billion people around the globe., 6<
