PRAEFATIO REDACTORIS It is only right that I began this preface with a sad remem­ brance of our dear and much admired friend Fr. Leonard Boyle OP, a member pieno iure of the Dominican Historical Institute, recently deceased. Only a few months ago he had been re-elected as member of our advisory board. The loss of his fraterna! presence and of his wise and generous collaboration will be deeply felt among us for a long time. I also wish to thank here ali those who have sent us their publications or bibliographical data and o ther information on publications relating to Dominican history from their countries or linguistic areas. Their names, fortunately, form a long list which is growing almost daily. I would also like to take the opportunity to remind and encourage the members of the Dominican Historical Institute, and ali of our readers and contributors not only to send us their publications and any news that they think could or should be included in this Bulletin but to recommend new subscribers as well. This will benefit us in two ways: the information collected in the DHN will be more complete, and our bibliography on the history of the Dominican Order will reach a wider audience. For this number I have gone through the following periodicals,

Cuademos para investigaci6n de la literatura hispdnica, Ius Ecclesiae, Lusitania Sacra, 1° Serie 1-10 (1956-1978); 2• Serie 1- (1989- ), Optantes, Roma sacra: Guida alle Chiese dellla Città Eterna (1995-), Revue Mabillon, Nouvelle Série, 1- (1990- ) (t. 62 de l a première série), Studies in Spirituality, and Studium Ovetense, noting ali articles of interest except for-book reviews.

*** Con profunda admiraci6n y reconocimiento hago memoria en primer lugar de nuestro muy querido e inolvidable Padre Leonard Boyle OP, miembro pieno iure del Instituto Hist6rico OP, recientemente fallecido. Hacia pocos meses que habia sido reelegido miembro de nuestro Consejo. Su fraterna!, sabia y generosa colaboraci6n ha dejado una profunda huella entre nosotros, y su ausencia se sentira por mucho tiempo. Requiescat in pace Domini. Doy las gracias a todos aquellos que nos han enviado sus publicaciones o los datos bibliograficos sobre los mismos, asi corno informaci6n sobre las publicaciones referentes a historia dominicana de sus paises o zonas linguisticas. Afortunadamente sus nombres forman ya una larga lista, que se va incrementando cada dia.

7

Recuerdo y ruego encarecidamente a los miembros del Instituto Hist6rico Dominicano, a nuestros peritos y a todos los que consultan la DHN que, ademas de enviamos sus publicaciones y todas las noticias que consideren deban o puedan ser incluidas en nuesto B oletin, recomienden nuevas suscripciones a la misma. De este modo se obtendrian dos beneficios notables: 1. que la informaci6n recogida en DHN sea mas rica y completa; 2. que se consiga una mas amplia difusi6n de la bibliografia sobre la historia de la Orden Dominicana. Revisadas las colecciones de las revistas: Cuadernos para investigaci6n de la literatura hispcinica, Ius Ecclesiae, Lusitania Sacra, 1a Serie 1-10 (1956-1978); 2a Serie 1- (1989- ), Optantes, Roma sacra: Guida alle Chiese dellla Città Eterna (1995-), Revue Mabillon, Nouvelle Série, 1(1990- ) (t. 62 de la première série), Studies in Spirituality y Studium Ovetense, resefi.o en este numero de la DHN todos los articulos referentes a la historia dominicana, excluidas las recensiones de libros.

*** Avec autant d'admiration que de reconnaissance, j'ouvre ce .nouveau volume en faisant mémoire du cher et inoubliable P. Leonard Boyle OP, membre pieno iure de l'Institut Historique OP, récemment décédé. Il y a quelque mois à peine, il avait été réélu membre de notre Conseil. Sa collaboration si fraternelle, sage et généreuse nous manquera douloureusement. Requiescat in pace Domini. Je remercie tous ceux qui nous ont envoyé leurs publications, des -références bibliographiques ou des renseignements sur l'histoire dominicaine de leur pays ou de leur zone linguistique. La liste déjà longue des publications ayant trait à notre histoire augmente sans cesse. Je rappelle aux membres de l'Institut Historique Domninicain, à nos experts et à tous !es lecteurs de la DHN qu'ils peuvent non seulement nous communiquer des publications et des nouvelles, mais aussi nous suggérer des nouvelles souscriptions. Nous en attendons un double avantage: tout d'abord la documentation de la DHN pourra etre plus complète, ensuite la bibliographie sur l'histoire de l'Ordre dominicain obtiendra une meilleure diffusion. J'ai relevé pour cette édition tous !es articles concernant l'histoire dominicaine, à l'exception des recensions de livres, dans !es revues suivantes: Cuadernos para investigaci6n de la literatura hispcinica, Ius Ecclesiae, Lusitania Sacra, la Serie 1-10 (1956-1978), Optantes, Roma sacra : Guida alle Chiese della Città Eterna (1995-), Revue Mabillon, Nou velie· Sé rie 1- (1990-) ( t. 62 de la première série), Studies in Spirituality et Studium Ovetense.

NOTITIAE VARIAE NECROLOGIUM

1. Michael Prendergast. Born in Cork on 6 Jan. 1923, he was educated at the Dominican school in Newbridge, and joined the Irish Dominican province on 14 Sept. 1941; he was ordained priest on 11 July 1948. He worked in Cork for a time, and then, for many years, in Australia and New Zealand. Later, having obtained ali necessary dispensations, he left the order and spent the last decades of his !ife as a layman in the Dominican parish in London. He devoted much time and energy to scholarly research into the !ife and works of Beato An­ gelico, but was unable to find a publisher for the book which resulted, since severa! comparable studies appeared at the same time. He died suddenly in London on 14 Jan. 1999. He was a kind and gentle soul, and will be sorely missed by his wife and friends. Simon Tugwell OP. Leonard Boyle OP. Born in Ballybofey, Co. Donegal, on 13. 11.1923, he was educated at the Dominican school in Newbridge, and received the Dominican habit in Cork on 14.9. 1943. After solemn profession, he was sent to Blackfriars, Oxford, to complete his studies; there he obtained the Lectorate in Sacred Theology, and then embarked on a doctorate at St 1,;itherine's College, Oxford, being awarded a DPhil in 1956 for a thesis entitled 'A study of the works attributed to William of Pagula with special reference to the Oculus sacerdotis and Summa summarum'. Having already been asked by the National Library of Ireland and the Public Records Office, London, to investigate materiai relevant to British and Irish history in the Vatican Archives, he now moved to San Clemente in Rome. In Rome, he taught at the Angelicum and, for a time, also worked as a member of the Dominican Historical Institute. Although he continued to do some teaching for the Angelicum unti! 1971-1972, his attention was increasingly focused on the Pontificai Institute of Mediaeval Studies, Toronto, where he first went in 1961 and where he eventually took up permanent residence unti!, on 24 May 1984, he was appointed Prefect of the Vatican Library. In that capacity, he tried to improve conditions for readers and employees alike, both of whom much appreciated his endeavours; he was also responsible for bringing the library into the electronic age. He resigned in 1997, and on 14 July of that year he was nominated President of the Leonine 2.

9

Commission. He died in Rome on 25 October 1999. His numerous publications have been listed, first, in the acts of the Canadian International Art History Conference held in honour of him and Richard Krautheimer (Rome 1987), and then, more recently, in the Festschrift edited by Jacqueline Brown and William P. Stoneman (cf. DHN 7 [1998] 290); but he will be remembered even more especially as the friend and mentor of countless devoted students and colleagues. He had a rare ability to winkle out the secrets hidden in jots and tittles and apparently random squiggles and messes in medieval manuscripts, so it was natural to turn to him for a professional opinion whether on the Beowulf codex in the British Library or on the supposed breviary of St Dominic. His generous willingness to share his knowledge and expertise, combined with his warm-heartedness and his mischievous sense of fun, made him a very special person. Simon Tugwell OP. NOTITIAE 3. En avril 1999, le Maitre de l'Ordre, fr. Timothy Radcliffe OP, a confirmé comme membres d u Conseil de l'Institut Historique Dominicain, !es Pères Louis-Jacques Bataillon OP, Leonard Boyle OP, Ambrosius Eszer OP, Stjepan Krasié OP, et Michael Tavuzzi OP. En outre, !es Pères Benedetto Carderi OP (Italie), Jean Levesque OP (France), Lucio Gutiérrez OP (Philippines), José Barrado OP (Espagne) et Alfonso Esponera OP (Espagne) ont été nommés membres non­ résidents de l'Institut. 4. Seminario di studio: Proyecto de un "corpus" e inventario de los sermones de S. Vicente Ferrer. Istituto Storico Domenicano di Roma;

Chiesa Nazionale di Spagna - Instituto Espaflol de Historia Eclesiastica; Scuola Superiore di Studi Medievali e Francescani - Pontificio Ateneo Antonianum. Il 22 novembre 1399, Vicente Ferrer, lasciava Avignone per dedicarsi esclusivamente alla vita apostolica. L'occasione del sesto centenario dell'inizio della sua straordinaria attività di predicatore ci offre l'opportunità di considerare meglio la sua produzione sermonaria. Il Prof. Don Josep Perarnau da lungo tempo lavora ad un progetto per arrivare a stabilire un corpus ed un inventario dei sermoni del santo. È nostra intenzione promuovere un seminario di studio che si terrà il 14 gennaio 2000, alle ore 17.00, preso la sede della Chiesa Nazionale di Spagna in Roma, Via Giulia 151, I-00186 Roma. 10

Tale incontro, aperto a tutti gli interessati, prevede la presentazione da parte del Prof. Perarnau del lavoro fin qui svolto ed ancora incompleto. Si tratta di un progetto che muove i primi passi verso una realizzazione con una duplice direzione. La prima presenta lo studio della successione manoscritta dei sermoni. La seconda considera l'elaborazione di un inventario dei sermoni. L'incontro è anche un pressante invito alla collaborazione nella identificazione di possibili sermoni finora sconosciuti ed ora più facilmente identificabili tramite l'inventario. Inoltre è invito allo studio di manoscritti, conosciuti e non conosciuti, da esaminarsi nella cornice dell'evoluzione testuale dei sermoni. L'iniziativa intende raccogliere l'attiva partecipazione di studiosi e interessati per promuovere il progetto di lavoro sulla produzione sermonaria di Vicente Ferrer. Da troppo tempo, infatti, i sermoni del santo aspettavano di essere conosciuti criticamente. [Vide

5. E l P. Alfonso Esponera Cerdan OP nos ha enviado las siguientes noticias de interés. "He conseguido que se realice una edici6n facsimilar, a precio muy economico para e! publico, de la importante obra de Francisco Diago OP, Historia de la Provincia de Arag6n de la Orden de Predicadores desde su origen y principio hasta el ano de mii y seyscientos (1599), en Valencia por las Librerias Paris-Valencia S.L. (ISBN 84-8339-080-9). Ha ingresado en e! Archivo Hist6rico Provincia! de la Provincia dominicana de Arag6n (Valencia) un volumen que contiene: las Actas impresas de sus Capitulos celebrados en 1617, 1625, 1629, 1631, 1636, 1645, 1657, 1661, 1665, 1669, 1680, 1694, 1698, 1717, 1722, 1726, 1761; las Actas manuscritas de 1765; y la carta confirmatoria manuscrita de Boxadors, 1790. Hay que recordar que no hubo actas ni en 1641 ni en 1644, asi corno tampoco desde 1702 hasta 1717. Ha sido trasladado a un amplio y acondicionado locai del Convento de Predicadores de Valencia (Cirilo Amor6s 54, 46004 Valencia, Espafla), e! Archivo Hist6rico de la Provincia de Arag6n, que cuenta con numerosas piezas, muchas de ellas de gran interés. Un equipo de especialistas ha iniciado la catalogaci6n de las B ulas Pontificias. Después habra que emprender la de los demas Privilegios Reales y pergaminos, asi corno, de una forma mas detallada, la de todos sus manuscritos y libros. Estos son mis trabajos de pr6xima aparici6n: 1. Conquista y aculturaci6n en la California Dominicana, 1770-

1790. El valenciano Luis Sales y sus "Noticias de la Provincia de California" (Instituci6 Alfons e! Magnànim, València).

2. 'Veinticinco afi.os de la Facultad de Teologia San Vicente Ferrer de Valencia', a publicar en Actas del X Simposion de Teologia Hist6rica de la Facultad de Teologia San Vicente Ferrer (Valencia). 3. 'La Facultad de Artes durante los siglos XVI y XVII', a publicar en Historia de la Universidad de Valencia. T. I: El Estudio Generai (Universitat de València, València 1999)." Angela Montford is researching the interaction of Sickness, Medicine and the Friars c. 1220-1400 with a particular interest in the

6.

care of sick friars themselves by their own brothers, including any evidence of medicai knowledge and how it was acquired, as well as demonstrating the practical and spiritual response of the Dominican and Franciscan orders to sickness and disease in their communities. It is hoped that a trip to the Archivio di Stato in Bologna in the autumn will make Italy the focus of a case study to enhance the work [Department of Mediaeval History, University of St Andrews, South Street, Fife KY16 9AL, Scotland].

7. Sr. Suzanne Noffke OP has kindly sent us these items about her projects: "Two volumes of The Letters of Catherine of Siena (translated with introduction and notes by S. Noffke OP) are currently in press with Medieval & Renaissance Texts & Studies, Tempe, Arizona. These are the first of four projected volumes of a completely new English edition new because the initial first volume published in 1988 has been rendered "obsolete" in view of the chronological analysis I have conducted over the past decade. This analysis, unlike the work of previous scholars, is based not simply on explicit historical clues within the letters but on internal linguistic evidence. The new edition presents ali of the letters in chronological order (at least a relative chronology where more precise dating has not been possible), with extensive annotation. My translation of The Prayers of Catherine of Siena has now been out of print for some time. I am currently preparing a new edition for publication, probably also by Medieval & Renaissance Texts & Studies. I am also preparing a thematic anthology of the writings of Catherine of Siena, which I expect to submit to Medieval & Renaissance Texts & Studies within the next months. On another front, I have just completed the redesign and reconstruction of our Racine Dominican historical exhibit at our rnotherhouse, Siena Center, in Racine, Wisconsin. The exhibit is open to

12

the generai public, but U.S. Dominicans will be particularly interested to know that the exhibit has been completely redone since the dismantling for our 1986 exhibit. I continue to work on the written presentation of the early history of our congregation, but with no publication date yet in view." (Sisters of St. Dominic, 3801 N. Main Street, Apt. 9, Racine, Wisconsin 53402). 8. Dr. Christopher S c h a b e l ( D epartment of History and Archaeology, University of Cyprus, P.O. Box 20537, CY 1678 Nicosia, Cyprus) has published and is publishing criticai editions of different texts in support of an upcoming book on Parisian Theology 1316-1345 on the theological problem of Divine Foreknowledge and Future Contingents. "In these years most of the extant Parisian works are by Franciscans, with some Augustinians, and so I have not had a chance or reason to work on Dominican manuscripts unti! now", he says. In the issue of AFP 2000, he is going to published, in collaboration with Irene Balcoyiannopoulou, an article entitled 'Peter de Palude and the Parisian Reaction to Durandus of St. Pourçain on Divine Foreknowledge and Future Contingents', which includes a criticai edition of Book I, distinction 38, question 3, of Palude's Sentences commentary. This text also incorporates Durandus' own question. The article treats primarily Durandus, Palude, and Bemard the Lombard, and as such it will give an overview of Dominican perspectives at Paris during the 1310's and 1320's, something that Hester Gelber is doing for Oxford in the first half of the 14th century. 9. El P. Peter Wolfs OP nos ha gentilmente enviado los tomos 1 3 de l a bella reproducci6n de s u colecci6n de sellos y postales con motivos dominicanos, de la que ya contabamos con el t. 4 (Vide DHN 7 (1998) 66).

Most of the conferences and communications dealt, in one way or another, with the great Dominican scholars of the Salamancan School and with their important legacy in the field of juridical doctrines. Max Niemeyer (Tilbingen) will publish the proceedings in the collection Neue Zeit in 1999. 12. Fiorenzuola d'Arda (PC). Italia. Vincenza Macu lani OP.

Il p. Carlo Longo, dell'Istituto storico, ne ha illustrato la biografia, in relazione soprattutto agli affari

14

concernenti fra Tommaso Campanella e il processo di Galileo Galilei del 1633, che egli affrontò con atteggiamento aperto alle nuove istanze negli anni in cui era commissario del Sant'Uffizio (1632-1639). L'arch. Diego Maestri, dell'Università di Roma 3, ha, invece, esposto la sua attività di architetto militare a Roma, a Genova e a Malta, con l'ausilio della pro­ iezione di significative diapositive e di una ricca mostra documentaria, organizzata dallo stesso e dal sig. Alfonso Setti nei locali dell'auditorium di San Giovanni, dove si è svolto l'incontro. 1 3. Grasse (France) - Le Mas du Calme.

Turku. Finlande. Colloque sur !es Dominicains en Finlande au moyen age. Les 18-21 aout 1999, à l'université finnoise de Turku (en suédois Àbo) un colloque sur les Dominicains en Finlande au moyen age a réuni une soixantaine de participants, en commémoration de l'arrivée des Dominicains dans cette ville en 1249. Les 14 exposés, dont on espère qu'ils seront publiés, traitaient notamment du couvent dominicain St­ Olaf à Turku (ainsi que de J'autre couvent des Frères à Vyborg en Finlande et de la tentative de fonder à Turku un couvent de moniales dominicaines au début du XVe s. ); de l'apostolat de l'Ordre dans !es pays autour de la mer Baltique (entre autres à Tallin en Esthonie, où il y eut aussi un couvent dominicain); de l'adoption de la liturgie dominicaine par le diocèse de Turku, ainsi que du grand livre de l'historien finlandais Jarl Gallén sur La province dominicaine de Dacie (Istituto Storico Domenicano, Dissertationes Historicae, 1946). À l'occasion du colloque, la cathédrale de Turku, luthérienne depuis le XVIe s., fit accueil à la célébration d'une messe dominicaine ainsi que de vepres sol ennelles en grégorien, vepres présidée. s conjointement par l'archeveque luthérien de Turku et par l'éveque catholique d'Helsinki. Le médiéviste venu d'une autre partie de l'Europe est frappé par le fait que la Finlande est entrée dans l'histoire au Xllle s. (auparavant c'est encore la préhistoire) et par le role que les Dominicains ont joué en ce siècle si important pour l'identité nationale. 28.

DISSERTATIONES UNIVERSITARIAE 3 1. Peter M. Batts OP, Lacordaire's understanding of "Restoration" in relation to his refounding of the Dominican Order in 19th century France. A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Theology, Saint Paul

University, in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Theology. Ottawa, Canada: Saint Paul University 1999. Sum mary sent by the author: "Henri-Dominique Lacordaire (1802-61) was one of the most important figures in the restoration of Catholicism in France after the Revolution. His most enduring contributiori to French Catholicism was his re-establishment of the Dominican Order. In this dissertation, I attempt to demonstrate that among those who founded and refounded religious com munities in France during the nineteenth century, Lacor'daire's understanding of religious !ife was unique; this uniqueness was pàrticularly evident in his understanding of "restoration" of religious !ife. Lacordaire, like almost ali nineteenth century French Catholics, had been deèply influenced by the Romantic Movement. The overwhelming majority of them, including the founders and refounders of religious orders and congregations, looked nostalgically to the past in order to find models for the restoration· of the church and its various institutions in their own century. Lacordaire's Romantic perspective was significantly different than theirs: �ather than looking to some imagined past era of greatness as is often characteristic of Romantics, he identified with secular Romantics of his time who emphasized love of one's own time, of one's own country, of one's own century. Like the secular and unlike the Catholic Romantics of nineteenth-century France, Lacordaire loved liberty and the world that had emerged from the French Revolution. His Romantic perspective had a profound impact on his understanding of what it would mean to "restore" a religiolis order. In the first chapter of this dissertation, I discuss briefly the situation in which the Catholic Church in France found itself in the early nineteenth-century aftermath of the Revolution which had sought to destroy it. The role of Romanticism in the remarkable recovery of the church during that period is e m phasized: it was the key to that remarkable recovery as well as its intellectual and emotional support. Figures like Rousseau, Chateaubriand, and Lamennais helped to make 21

Catholicism a respectable option for the intellectual and cultural elites. The religion of ordinary French Catholics was also Romantic to the core. The second chapter is devoted to the presentation of the importance of the restoration of religious life in France to the overall restoration of the church in that country. I emphasize the complicated situation that existed for religious communities in the early nineteenth century. The ill-defined legal status of religious communities in general and of particular ones made restoration difficult and precarious. Nevertheless, new congregations were founded and old orders were restored. I cite de Mazen od's Oblates of Mary I m m ac u late and Guéranger's Solesmes Benedictines as examples. I also argue that both men, unlike Lacordaire, looked more to the past than to their own time for models for religious life; this was typical of nineteenth-century French Catholics. In the third chapter, I discuss Lacordaire's pre-Dominican life. He was always profoundly influenced by the liberal, Romantic education that he had received as a boy. His lifelong love of liberty and of the principles of the French Revolution originateci there. As a young man, he refound the Catholic faith which he had lost in childhood, went to seminary, and was ordained a priest. Lacordaire later became involved with Lamennais in an ill-fated program designed to reconcile "God and liberty", the church and modem, liberal society. After the program's condemnation by Pope Gregory XVI, Lacordaire went on to a brief but brilliant preaching career as a diocesan priest. The fourth chapter is especially concerned with Lacordaire's restoration of the Dominican Order. In the late 1830's, influenced somewhat by Guéranger, he decided to restore the Order of Preachers in France because he considered it ideally equipped to deal with the task of preaching to a nation desperately in need of re-evangelization. He believed that its history and charism made it particularly suited to the religious needs of nin eteenth century France ; he was especially impressed with the democratic structures of the Dominican Order. Lacordaire presented his case for the restoration of the Order, still a technically illegal move, in his 1839 Mémoire pour le rétablissement en France de l'Ordre des Frères Précheurs. After novitiate and studies in Italy, Lacordaire and a number of French companions replanted the Order of Preachers on French soil during the 1840's. The Dominican Province of France was officially re-established, with Lacordaire as first provincia!, in 1850. The fifth chapter deals with the difficulties between Lacordaire and his most famous recruit, Alexandre Jandel, who was appointed by

22

Pope Pius IX as head of the Dominican Order in 1850. Lacordaire and Jandel disagreed in their understanding of religious !ife and of what is meant by "restoration" of a religious order. Lacordaire wanted to adjust the traditional Dominican observances to the needs of his own time and of the actual ministries in which the friars were engaged. Jandel wanted to preserve these observances in what he believed was their full and originai vigor. This disput e epitomized t h e different Romantic perspectives of the two men and clearly illustrateci the uniqueness of Lacordaire's understanding of "restoration". Jandel looked nostalgically to the past, namely to the thirteenth century, as his governing model for Dominican !ife in the nineteenth century; he believed that the Order's strength and effectiveness lay in a return to a strict observance of the Dominican Constitutions as they were originally formulateci. Lacordaire believed that the Order would be strongest and most influential when it remained loyal to its originai charism of preaching yet adapted itself to the needs of its time, always remaining open to learning from the best that the contemporary age had to offer. Jandel's understanding of "restoration" was typical of the founders and refounders of nineteenth­ century French religious communities. Lacordaire's was unique. The sixth chapter is devoted t o evaluating L acordaire' s understanding of "restoration" o f religious !ife. I t emphasizes the affinity between his Romantic perspective and that of the secular Romantics of his day. Like them, Lacordaire embraced the revolutionary ideals of liberty, fratemity, and equality. Like them, he loved the particular time and piace in which he lived. Like them, he had a dynamic, evolutionary understanding of history and tradition. This understanding profoundly affected his concept of "restoration". Consequently, Lacordaire saw the restoration of religious life as a dynamic organic process, as a process of recreation, renewal, and revitalization, as a movement forward rather than backward. This understanding was truly unique among nineteenth­ century founders and refounders of religious !ife. I conclude by proposing Lacordaire's underst anding o f "restoration" a s a model and guide for our time a s the church and religious communities continue to grapple with questions of renewal and relevance. I also suggest possibilities for future research by Lacordaire scholars, e.g. t h e relationship between L acordaire's understanding of religious !ife and the teaching of Vatican II on this subject."
