Feasts of the Blessed Virgin Mary by John Ogilvie Pdf
Myriad feasts in honour of the Virgin Mary are held and observed throughout the liturgical year. Some of the feasts are ancient rituals, while others are celebrated in remembrance of more historically recent events that pertain to her, such as the visions at Lourdes and Fatima, in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries respectively. Taken a chapter at a time, the feasts are here detailed in all their glory with reference to the scriptures, to poetry, to hymn, to philosophy - all of which express their devotion to and love for 'the mother of humanity' in their own unique ways.
Saints of the Roman Calendar: Including Recent Feasts Proper to the English-Speaking World by Enzo Lodi Pdf
The Catholic Church has always placed before the eyes of the faithful the example of holiness set by the saints. In the first Preface of the Mass for Holy Men and Women we read: "In their lives on earth you give us an example. In our communion with them you give us their friendship. In their prayer for the Church you give us strength and protection." Moreover, as the Second Vatican Council put it, "every act of love offered by us to those who are in heaven tends to and terminates in Christ, 'the crown of all the saints, ' and through him in God who is wonderful in his saints and is glorified in them." This book, then, should be a welcome addition to the ever increasing number of volumes that treat of the lives of the saints. With the addition of feast days proper to the United States, it is offered to the English-speaking public in the hope that is will foster greater devotion to the saintly men and women who are not only historical figures worthy of our veneration but models worthy of our imitation.
Many Catholics are unaware of our holy traditions on and powerful devotions to the Sorrows of Mary. Based on Scripture and the lives of the Saints, this little book will open eyes and hearts to the Sorrows of Our Lady.

Traditional Festivals [2 volumes] by Christian Roy Pdf
This illustrated reference work covers a wide range of festivals that have sacred origins and are, or have been, part of a folk tradition, a world religion, or a major civilization. Traditional Festivals: A Multicultural Encyclopedia travels around the world and across the centuries to uncover an often unexpected richness of meaning in some of the major sacred festivals of the world's religions, the hallowed calendars of ancient civilizations, and the seasonal celebrations of tribal cultures. From Akitu to Yom Kippur, its 150+ entries look at the content and context of these festivals from a number of perspectives (including those relating to theology, anthropology, folklore, and social theory), tracing their historical development and variations across cultures. Readers will get a vivid sense of what each festival means to the people celebrating it; how each captures its culture's beliefs, hopes and fears, founding myths, and redemptive visions; and how each expresses the universal need of humans to connect their lives to a timeless spiritual dimension.

The Holy Rosary, from the Writings of the Fathers of the Church by Fr. Mark Higgins,The Fathers of the Church Pdf
This collection of rosary meditations taken from the writings of the Fathers of the Church allows the reader, for the first time, to bring the insights of Sacred Tradition into the daily recitation of the Holy Rosary. We know well, as true sons and daughters of Holy Mother Church, that the Truths of the Catholic Faith come to us both through Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition, indeed, St. Paul writes, “Therefore, brothers, stand firm and cling to the traditions we taught you, whether by speech or by letter” (2 Thess. 2:15). How little time, alas, do we give to the sayings of the ancient fathers, how little attention towards their words of reflection, and yet, what riches can be found in their insights, as they ponder upon the events of salvation history, and share from the Fountain of Wisdom that, in one manner, was so much closer to their lips than it is to ours. Drawing from diverse authors, both those canonically held as ‘Fathers’, but also other ancient writers of the First Millennium of Christianity, this book will serve as a faithful companion to any committed Catholic who is desirous of ‘going deeper’ in contemplation of the Holy Rosary, and to do so in a manner which seeks neither novelty nor the theological fashions of today, but the wisdom of the earliest saints of our Holy Religion. You will find here hundreds of carefully selected paragraphs of meditation, chosen in and through prayer. You will find points for every bead of the traditional rosary, as well as the additional mysteries proposed by Pope John Paul II and The Hopeful Mysteries, introduced in an earlier work by the same author, which bring to the faithful’s consideration events concerning Our Lady and Salvation History prior to the Annunciation. This is a book to be kept alongside your rosary beads, to be brought out at adoration, to be carried on retreat, to be shared with your children in family prayers and to be passed on to those who wish to grow in prayer, and in the greatest of all the prayers of popular piety, the Holy Rosary. “The book is a wonderful composition of devotional meditations that lead the reader through a deeply meaningful and intimate journey in prayer and inspiration”—Holly Rodriguez (Illustrator, poet and founder of Beatific Artworks) About the Author: Fr. Mark Higgins is a priest of the Archdiocese of Southwark, England. He is also the editor of The Holy Rosary, through the Visions of Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich.

This collection of new essays examines the long-standing question of apocalyptic expectations around the turn of the first millennium. Including works by scholars of medieval history, literature, and religion, this book argues that apocalyptic expectations did exist around the year 1000. It provides a more balanced and nuanced approach to the issue than the traditional views that either identify a time of fear, the 'terrors of the year 1000', or deny that awareness of the millennium existed. This book, instead, recognizes that there were a variety of responses to the eschatological years 1000 and 1033 and that these responses contributed to the broader social and religious developments associated with the birth of European civilization.
Medieval Franciscan Approaches to the Virgin Mary by Anonim Pdf

Handbook of Catholic Dogmatics 5.2 by Matthias Joseph Scheeben Pdf
In Handbook of Catholic Dogmatics, Book V, Soteriology Part 2 the nineteenth-century German dogmatician Matthias Joseph Scheeben turns to an in-depth study of Christ’s redemptive deed. He begins this work with an exploration of the prerequisites for the Incarnate Word’s redemptive efficacy—his personal/capital grace and resultant perfections of intellect and will. Scheeben then examines the various states or mysteries of Christ’s life as well as the efficacy proper to his redemptive deed, by which the God-man restores and superabundantly perfects the supernatural order ruined by the first human sin. In this connection, Scheeben also includes his Mariology in this volume precisely insofar as Mary is the mother of the Redeemer. Located here in his Dogmatics, the figure of Mary thus serves as the point of departure for his planned treatment of the grace of Christ in its ecclesial mediation.
