Andronicus is counted as one of the Seventy. He and his fellow-worker Junia are mentioned by St Paul in his Epistle to the Romans: "Greet Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen and fellow prisoners, who are of note among the Apostles, who also were in Christ before me" (Romans 16:7). Some, troubled that a woman is mentioned as an Apostle, have attempted to translate "Junia" as "Junias," a man's name; but the Fathers are united in treating her as "Junia." It may be that they were husband and wife, like Aquila and Priscilla (Acts 18), but the ancient witnesses do not tell us. Andronicus became Bishop of Pannonia, but did not stay in one place, instead travelling throughout the world to proclaim the Gospel. Both Andronicus and Junia were granted the gift of wonder-working. Both of them suffered for Christ and were finally martyred.
TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜ https://www.bastabugie.it/8144I VERI PATRONI D'EUROPA, ALTRO CHE URSULA VON DER LEYEN di Cristina Siccardi I patroni d'Europa non sono Ursula von der Leyen, Roberta Metsola, António Costa, Kaja Kallas e neppure Macron e Steinmeier, bensì i santi Benedetto da Norcia, Cirillo e Metodio, Brigida di Svezia, Caterina da Siena e Teresa Benedetta della Croce, sui quali il Senato della Repubblica italiana scriveva nel 2017 in una pubblicazione dal titolo Patroni d'Europa. Percorsi di unità, di pace, di cultura: «In modi speciali essi sono stati tutti profondamente europei [...]. Se pace, cultura, dialogo, difesa dei diritti umani sono oggi imperativi morali per tutti i cittadini d'Europa, e non solo per chi si professa credente, dobbiamo riconoscere il merito a straordinari precursori. La loro voce, a distanza di secoli, ancora ha molto da dirci e da insegnarci». Leggendo queste considerazioni, occorre fare alcuni doverosi distinguo. L'allora presidente del Senato, Pietro Grasso, aveva riconosciuto il patronato dell'Europa dei santi menzionati; tuttavia, ha compiuto un'operazione conforme a tutti coloro che da molti anni cercano di assorbire le figure dei santi nell'agone del liberalismo laicista politico e religioso, strumentalizzando i loro insegnamenti.I santi patroni d'Europa hanno operato nella pace di Cristo e non del mondo; hanno tessuto le loro relazioni non in un vacuo dialogo, ma sulle linee costruttive del Vangelo; non hanno pensato e agito in modalità antropocentrica, ma evangelica e con spirito soprannaturale alla luce della Grazia di Dio; hanno dato priorità alla Gloria di Dio e non del mondo, concentrandosi sulla salvezza delle anime, considerando lesive le proposte e tentazioni mondane. Essi non sono stati «straordinari precursori» dell'ideologia europeista anticristiana, bensì Maestri nell'instaurare il Regno di Dio attraverso Cristo Re.San Benedetto da Norcia (480-547) è stato dichiarato «Santo patrono di tutta l'Europa» da papa Paolo VI il 24 ottobre 1964 con la lettera apostolica Pacis Nuntius. Cirillo e Metodio sono stati proclamati compatroni da papa Giovanni Paolo II il 31 dicembre 1980 con la lettera apostolica Egregiae virtutis; lo stesso Papa ha inoltre proclamato compatrone d'Europa santa Brigida di Svezia, santa Caterina da Siena e santa Teresa Benedetta della Croce il 1º ottobre 1999.SAN BENEDETTO, SANTI CIRILLO E METODIOLa statura umana e cristiana di san Benedetto resta nella Storia un luminoso punto di riferimento in un'epoca di profondi mutamenti (come la nostra), quando l'antico ordinamento romano stava ormai crollando e stava per nascere una nuova era sotto l'impulso di nuovi popoli emergenti all'orizzonte dell'Europa. Attraverso la fondazione delle abbazie e dei monasteri nel continente, san Benedetto risanò le anime, bonificò i villaggi, promuovendo la coltivazione razionale delle terre, offrendo lavoro alle famiglie che vivevano e lavoravano intorno ai centri benedettini; salvò l'antico patrimonio culturale e letterario greco-romano, influì sulla trasformazione dei costumi dei barbari. La Regola benedettina portò ordine e civilizzazione grazie a due parole profondamente applicate «Ora et labora», che instillarono il senso del dovere, stando attenti alla propria coscienza e allo sguardo di Dio (ciò implicava, conseguentemente, il rispetto per i legittimi diritti altrui) e che promossero responsabilizzazione, coraggio, determinazione, tutto ciò, disse Giovanni Paolo II durante la sua visita pastorale a Norcia il 23 marzo 1980, «sulla base e in forza di una vita spirituale di fede e di preghiera assolutamente intensa ed esemplare».La missione dei fratelli Cirillo (826/827-869) e Metodio (815/825-885), evangelizzatori bizantini dei popoli slavi in Moravia e Pannonia (antica regione compresa tra i fiumi Danubio e Sava, che comprendeva la parte occidentale dell'attuale Ungheria, il Burgenland oggi Land austriaco, fino a Vienna, la parte nord della Croazia e parte della Slovenia), produsse nel IX secolo l'invenzione dell'alfabeto glagolitico, noto come «cirillico», dal nome del suo inventore e nato dal geniale sforzo di conciliare le lingue latina, greca e slava. Come san Benedetto aveva posto le basi dell'Europa latina, i due fratelli di Tessalonica innestarono nel continente la tradizione greca e bizantina, come riconobbe papa Pio XI con la Lettera Apostolica Quod Sanctum Cyrillum del 1927, definendoli «figli dell'Oriente, di patria bizantini, d'origine greci, per missione romani, per i frutti apostolici slavi».Le nazioni europee, con le loro lingue, le loro culture, i loro usi e costumi furono unite sotto il Sacro Romano Impero, che si instaurò sotto l'egida e il faro del Cristianesimo, un credo non rivoluzionario, non distruttivo, ma forte nei suoi principi e nei suoi valori del Dio Uno e Trino, di patria, di famiglia e proprietà privata. È di tutta evidenza che il collante di tante diversità fu la Fede religiosa, che rispettava ogni identità, a differenza della surrettizia Unione Europea che vuole imporre, senza rispetto di quelle identità, il livellante pensiero unico alle genti europee.Aver eliminato il Cristianesimo dalla linfa europea, come ben vediamo, ha trasportato il continente nel baratro del pensiero neonietzschiano, che nega verità oggettive, imponendo una pluralità di prospettive opinabili, in cui le “verità soggettive” e i presunti diritti sono legati all'ideologia schizofrenica di chi domina con politiche sovranazionali, tiranniche e schiavizzanti, che vanno contro le Leggi di Dio, ma anche contronatura, riproponendo in definitiva il «non serviam» di matrice luciferina. Se l'Europa era stata ferita e incrinata dalla rivoluzione protestante, oggi la presunta Unione Europea, claudicante e persa in un labirinto di confusione, è il frutto del suo tradimento a se stessa.SANTA BRIGIDA DI SVEZIA ED EDITH STEINSanta Brigida di Svezia (1303-1373) fu sposa, madre, monaca, mistica, donna di grande carità e coordinatrice di ordine e di pace dentro e fuori la Chiesa. Si recò a Roma per celebrare l'Anno Santo del 1350 e qui trovò una situazione drammatica: il Papa si era trasferito ad Avignone e il popolo romano era come un gregge senza pastore. C'era la peste e in Europa infuriava il conflitto tra Francia e Inghilterra. Nelle stanze di Palazzo Farnese e nelle chiese romane ricevette rivelazioni divine, intanto parlava direttamente al Papa, ai cardinali, ai governanti europei, anche per intercedere per la pace in Europa al fine di porre termine alla guerra dei Cent'anni. Si prodigò per il ritorno del Pontefice a Roma, come fece anche vigorosamente la mistica domenicana e sua contemporanea santa Caterina da Siena (1347-1380), la quale, sopravvivendole, sarà testimone del ritorno definitivo a Roma di Gregorio XI nel 1377. Particolarmente devota della Passione di Cristo, giunse il tempo dei pellegrinaggi brigidini: da Assisi al Gargano, arrivando poi in Terra Santa, quando aveva quasi settant'anni.Cinque santi medioevali come patroni d'Europa ed una dell'età moderna, l'ebrea Edith Stein (1891-1942), atea convertita al Cattolicesimo, che divenne carmelitana scalza. Dalla brillante intelligenza, scelse il ramo universitario della filosofia e dopo essere stata allieva di Edmund Husserl, divenne membro della facoltà di Friburgo. Un giorno rimase folgorata quando vide una donna con i sacchetti della spesa entrare in una chiesa per pregare... un atto semplicissimo, ma che a Edith rivelò che Dio può essere pregato in qualsiasi momento e quindi apprese, grazie a quella donna, che il punto centrale del Credo cristiano è lo stabilire un rapporto personale fra l'anima e il Padre Creatore. Nel 1921, durante una vacanza, lesse l'autobiografia della mistica carmelitana Teresa d'Avila e da allora abbracciò Santa Romana Chiesa, ricevendo il battesimo il 1° gennaio 1922. Dopo un periodo di discernimento spirituale, entrò nel monastero carmelitano di Colonia nel 1934, prendendo il nome di Teresa Benedetta della Croce e qui scrisse il libro metafisico Endliches und ewiges Sein (Essere finito ed Essere eterno) con l'obiettivo di conciliare le filosofie di san Tommaso d'Aquino e di Husserl.Per proteggerla dalle leggi razziali, l'Ordine delle Carmelitane scalze la trasferì nei Paesi Bassi, ma non fu sufficiente: il 26 luglio 1942 entrò in vigore l'ordine di Hitler che anche gli ebrei convertiti dovevano essere catturati e internati. Fu così che Edith e sua sorella Rosa, anche lei divenuta cattolica, furono deportate nel campo di concentramento di Auschwitz, dove vennero uccise nelle camere a gas il 9 agosto 1942 e i loro corpi furono bruciati nei forni crematori.ROBERTO BENIGNI ESALTA IL MANIFESTO DI VENTOTENEAlcuni giorni fa Roberto Benigni ha teatralmente declamato e inneggiato con lo spettacolo intitolato «Il Sogno» il Manifesto di Ventotene per un'Europa libera e unita, manifesto che è stato protagonista di una ormai nota manifestazione progressista a Roma, ma anche di molteplici polemiche politiche e mediatiche. Nel decantare l'Europa culturale e l'indiscutibile suo primeggiare nel mondo, Benigni si è però completamente “scordato” di far presente che è stata la religione cristiana ad aver dato vita ad uno straordinario sviluppo dell'arte, della letteratura, della musica nel segno della bellezza; ma ha anche “scordato” di dire che è stato il Cristianesimo ad avviare lo studio scientifico degli esseri animati e inanimati, si pensi alle realtà monastiche che si sono occupate della catalogazione del mondo vegetale e animale, nonché dello studio medico delle erbe officinali; ma si pensi anc
Thursday of the Second Week of Lent Saint of the Day: St. Martin of Braga, 520-580; born in Pannonia, along the Danube;he made a pilgrimage to Palestine and then settled in Spain; regarded as one of the outstanding scholars of his age, he converted many Arians, built Dumium Monastery, and then became bishop of Braga and metropolitan of Galicia; several of his treatises have survived Office of Readings and Morning Prayer for 3/20/25 Gospel: Luke 16:19-31
The Ninth Legion (Legio IX Hispana, also sometimes called the "Lost Legion") had a long history. It served under the command of Julius Caesar during the First Century BC, on the side of Octavian in the civil war against Mark Antony and Cleopatra, and was sent to Spain, Germania, Pannonia, and Britain. In Roman Britain, it fought against rebellions, including the rebellion of Queen Boudica in which it narrowly avoided destruction. But its trace was lost in Northern England in the early Second Century AD, which is highly unusual for such an important unit at a time when the Roman Empire was in good shape overall. Was it destroyed in Britain by Celtic tribes, sent to the Netherlands, or did it disappear in a later conflict in Judea or Cappadocia? In this story, we examine the hypotheses and historical context, which provides a good opportunity to explore what Roman legions were, the conquest of Roman Britain, and other aspects of Roman history.

He was a disciple of Saints Cyril and Methodius (May 11), and traveled with them on their missionary journey to the Slavs. With them and their other companions, he endured many trials, including several imprisonments at the hands of the Latin Franks, who were seeking to seize control of the region of Moravia in order to impose the Latin language and to spread the heresy of the filioque. For a time their troubles were relieved by Pope Hadrian II, who supported the mission and made St Methodius Archbishop of Pannonia, with jurisdiction over the Eastern European Slav lands. But when St Methodius died, St Nahum and his companions were imprisoned once more, then sent into exile, where they finally found shelter in the Orthodox Kingdom of Bulgaria. There they were able to continue their work of evangelization in the Slavonic language. Saint Nahum founded the Monastery that bears his name on the shore of Lake Ochrid. After his repose his relics were brought there for burial, and are venerated there today.
Jesus Calling Pt. 3: Holding Fast to His Name 11-17-2024 Last slide – Hold fast to that which is good. 1) Jesus is my JUDGE. “12“And to the angel of the church in Pergamum write: ‘The words of him who has the sharp two-edged sword.” (Revelation 2:12, ESV) · Two-edged sword = judgement. “2He made my mouth like a sharp sword; in the shadow of his hand he hid me; he made me a polished arrow; in his quiver he hid me away.” (Isaiah 49:2, ESV) “12For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart. 13And no creature is hidden from his sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account.” (Hebrews 4:12–13, ESV) 2) Jesus sees how INTENSE my struggle is. “13“ ‘I know where you dwell, where Satan's throne is. Yet you hold fast my name, and you did not deny my faith even in the days of Antipas my faithful witness, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells.” (Revelation 2:13, ESV) · Satan's Throne (dwells) = This city was a legal center for the district and at the same time an old stronghold of emperor worship, where already in 29 B. C. a temple had been built to the divine Augustus and the goddess Roma, which was served by a powerful priesthood. Especially abhorrent to the Christians was the local cult of Aesculapius whose symbol was the serpent, which was called “the god of Pergamum” but to Christians was the symbol of the serpent of Eden. In addition to these pagan cults there towered on the Acropolis a throne-like altar of Zeus Soter (Savior) which commemorated the defeat of the barbarian Gauls by Attalus about 240 BC. - R. C. H. Lenski, The Interpretation of St. John's Revelation (Columbus, OH: Lutheran Book Concern, 1935), 103–104. Zahn takes it to refer to the cult of Aesculapius. He points out that under Diocletian Christian stonecutters from Rome carved out in the quarries of Pannonia not only pillars, capitals, and baths, but also victories, cupids, and even the sun-god in his chariot but refused to carve an image of Aesculapius, for which refusal they were put to death as being followers of Antipas of Pergamum. So much at least is certain that the Lord himself (not John as some say) regarded Pergamum as the one city among the seven where Satan even had his throne and thus ruled as king. All seven were thoroughly pagan, this one was the worst. R. C. H. Lenski, The Interpretation of St. John's Revelation (Columbus, OH: Lutheran Book Concern, 1935), 104. · Antipas - Show picture of where he might have been executed. 3) Jesus also sees where I've FALLEN SHORT. “14But I have a few things against you: you have some there who hold the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to put a stumbling block before the sons of Israel, so that they might eat food sacrificed to idols and practice sexual immorality. 15So also you have some who hold the teaching of the Nicolaitans.” (Revelation 2:14–15, ESV) · Teaching of Balaam Now, the Lord says, the church in Pergamum has some members that are holding to the same teaching and are running to the idol feasts and the fornication practiced in the pagan temples in order to gain immunity and pagan favor for themselves. The two aorist infinitives express actuality. This eating and this fornicating also go together. It was so in the case of the sons of Israel; it is so in the case of these members in Pergamum who were repeating Israel's folly. - R. C. H. Lenski, The Interpretation of St. John's Revelation (Columbus, OH: Lutheran Book Concern, 1935), 107. · Nicolaitans - 4) I must REPENT to escape judgement. “16Therefore repent. If not, I will come to you soon and war against them with the sword of my mouth.” (Revelation 2:16, ESV) · Repent - Strong's Concordance: Meaning: I repent, change my mind, change the inner man (particularly with reference to acceptance of the will of God), repent. Word Origin: From the Greek words "meta" (meaning "after" or "beyond") and "noeo" (meaning "to think" or "to perceive"), thus implying a change of mind or heart. · Make war “31Or what king, going out to encounter another king in war, will not sit down first and deliberate whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? 32And if not, while the other is yet a great way off, he sends a delegation and asks for terms of peace.” (Luke 14:31–32, ESV) 5) Jesus gives the conqueror INDIVIDUALIZED rewards. “17He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who conquers I will give some of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, with a new name written on the stone that no one knows except the one who receives it.'” (Revelation 2:17, ESV) · Hidden manna - Trench, Epistles to the Seven Churches: “There can, I think, be no doubt that allusion is here made to the manna which, at God's express command, Moses caused to be laid up before the Lord in the Sanctuary, Exod. 16:32–34; cf., Heb. 9:4. This manna, as being thus laid up, obtained the name ‘hidden.' … This ‘hidden manna' … represents a benefit pertaining to the future kingdom of glory.”… All the statements regarding the heavenly joys are given in figurative language, and one of them is our eating and drinking there—note the feast in Matt. 8:11. The symbolism of the hidden manna is most appropriate here after the eating of things offered to idols in v. 14. In John 6:30, etc., Jesus calls himself (his flesh and blood… the manna, “bread from heaven,” to be eaten by faith. The fact that in John 6:49, etc., Jesus is “the living bread,” while in Revelation “the hidden manna” indicates the heavenly bliss, causes no difficulty. - R. C. H. Lenski, The Interpretation of St. John's Revelation (Columbus, OH: Lutheran Book Concern, 1935), 109. · White stone, secret name - “16He appointed the twelve: Simon (to whom he gave the name Peter); 17James the son of Zebedee and John the brother of James (to whom he gave the name Boanerges, that is, Sons of Thunder);” (Mark 3:16–17, ESV) Ψῆφος = pebble; the adjective “white” may well imply that a diamond is referred to. “A new name having been written” on this stone, ὄνομα καινόν, means a name “new” as replacing one that is old, the perfect participle indicating that, once written, this name remains. The remarkable thing is that no one knows this name save the person who receives the pebble. We think that those are correct who take this name to be the name for the person who receives the pebble and not a secret name of God or of Christ. - R. C. H. Lenski, The Interpretation of St. John's Revelation (Columbus, OH: Lutheran Book Concern, 1935), 110.
This holy and beloved Western Saint, the patron of France, was born in Pannonia (modern-day Hungary) in 316, to a pagan military family stationed there. Soon the family returned home to Italy, where Martin grew up. He began to go to church at the age of ten, and became a catechumen. Though he desired to become a monk, he first entered the army in obedience to his parents. One day, when he was stationed in Amiens in Gaul, he met a poor man shivering for lack of clothing. He had already given all his money as alms, so he drew his sword, cut his soldier's cloak in half, and gave half of it to the poor man. That night Christ appeared to him, clothed in the half-cloak he had given away, and said to His angels, "Martin, though still a catechumen, has clothed me in this garment." Martin was baptised soon afterward. Though he still desired to become a monk, he did not obtain his discharge from the army until many years later, in 356. He soon became a disciple of St Hilary of Poitiers (commemorated January 13), the "Athanasius of the West." After traveling in Pannonia and Italy (where he converted his mother to faith in Christ), he returned to Gaul, where the Arian heretics were gaining much ground. Not long afterward became Bishop of Tours, where he shone as a shepherd of the Church: bringing pagans to the faith, healing the sick, establishing monastic life throughout Gaul, and battling the Arian heresy so widespread throughout the West. Finding the episcopal residence too grand, he lived in a rude, isolated wooden hut, even while fulfilling all the duties of a Bishop of the Church. His severity against heresy was always accompanied by love and kindness toward all: he once traveled to plead with the Emperor Maximus to preserve the lives of some Priscillianist heretics whom the Emperor meant to execute. As the holy Bishop lay dying in 397, the devil appeared to tempt him one last time. The Saint said, "You will find nothing in me that belongs to you. Abraham's bosom is about to receive me." With these words he gave up his soul to God. He is the first confessor who was not a martyr to be named a Saint in the West. His biographer, Sulpitius Severus, wrote of him: "Martin never let an hour or a moment go by without giving himself to prayer or to reading and, even as he read or was otherwise occupied, he never ceased from prayer to God. He was never seen out of temper or disturbed, distressed or laughing. Always one and the same, his face invariably shining with heavenly joy, he seemed to have surpassed human nature. In his mouth was nothing but the Name of Christ and in his soul nothing but love, peace and mercy." Note: St Martin is commemorated on this day in the Greek and Slavic Synaxaria; his commemoration in the West, where he is especially honored, is on November 11.
Friday of the 31st week in Ordinary Time Saints of the Day: The Four Crowned Martyrs; there were two separate groups who bore this name; one was Castorius, Claudius, Nicostratus, and Symphorian; they were carvers who refused to carve a statue of a pagan god; they were tortured and slain in Pannonia; the other group was Carpophorus, Secundius, Severian, and Victorinus; they died at Albano, Italy, and a basilica was erected in their honor in Rome Office of Readings and Morning Prayer for 11/8/24 Gospel: Luke 16:1-8
Andronicus is counted as one of the Seventy. He and his fellow-worker Junia are mentioned by St Paul in his Epistle to the Romans: "Greet Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen and fellow prisoners, who are of note among the Apostles, who also were in Christ before me" (Romans 16:7).

It may be that they were husband and wife, like Aquila and Priscilla (Acts 18), but the ancient witnesses do not tell us. Andronicus became Bishop of Pannonia, but did not stay in one place, instead travelling throughout the world to proclaim the Gospel. Both Andronicus and Junia were granted the gift of wonder-working.

Finding the episcopal residence too grand, he lived in a rude, isolated wooden hut, even while fulfilling all the duties of a Bishop of the Church. His severity against heresy was always accompanied by love and kindness toward all: he once traveled to plead with the Emperor Maximus to preserve the lives of some Priscillianist heretics whom the Emperor meant to execute. As the holy Bishop lay dying in 397, the devil appeared to tempt him one last time. The Saint said, "You will find nothing in me that belongs to you. Abraham's bosom is about to receive me." With these words he gave up his soul to God. He is the first confessor who was not a martyr to be named a Saint in the West. His biographer, Sulpitius Severus, wrote of him: "Martin never let an hour or a moment go by without giving himself to prayer or to reading and, even as he read or was otherwise occupied, he never ceased from prayer to God. He was never seen out of temper or disturbed, distressed or laughing. Always one and the same, his face invariably shining with heavenly joy, he seemed to have surpassed human nature. In his mouth was nothing but the Name of Christ and in his soul nothing but love, peace and mercy." Note: St Martin is commemorated on this day in the Greek and Slavic Synaxaria; his commemoration in the West, where he is especially honored, is on November 11.
This holy and beloved Western Saint, the patron of France, was born in Pannonia (modern-day Hungary) in 316, to a pagan military family stationed there. Soon the family returned home to Italy, where Martin grew up. He began to go to church at the age of ten, and became a catechumen. Though he desired to become a monk, he first entered the army in obedience to his parents. One day, when he was stationed in Amiens in Gaul, he met a poor man shivering for lack of clothing. He had already given all his money as alms, so he drew his sword, cut his soldier's cloak in half, and gave half of it to the poor man. That night Christ appeared to him, clothed in the half-cloak he had given away, and said to His angels, "Martin, though still a catechumen, has clothed me in this garment." Martin was baptised soon afterward. Though he still desired to become a monk, he did not obtain his discharge from the army until many years later, in 356.

La lezione si apre sulla figura di Ottone I, imperatore sassone, fondatore della dinastia degli Ottoni (seguiranno Ottone II e Ottone III), cui si deve il merito di aver arginato le invasioni barbariche del IX e X secolo, in particolare la minaccia portata dagli Ungari: la vittoria riportata a Lechfeld nel 955 contribuisce a ridurre la pressione di questa popolazione, che pochi decenni dopo si insedia nella regione dell'antica Pannonia, dove si stabilizza convertendosi al cristianesimo (re Stefano I nell'anno 1000). Ottenuto questo risultato, Ottone prova a recuperare i cocci infranti di un impero ridotto di estensione e in preda all'anarchia. Per ovviare alle storture introdotte dal capitolare di Quierzy dissimulandone le intenzioni, trova un espediente efficace: attribuire i feudi via via riconquistati a vescovi-conti. In tal modo, il feudo esce dal circuito dell'asse ereditario. Il problema è che Ottone non si limita ad assegnare i feudi ai vescovi ordinati dalla Chiesa, ma attribuisce lui stesso contestualmente l'investitura feudale e religiosa (conte e vescovo). Questa procedura non mancherà di sollevare contestazioni da parte della Chiesa, da cui si precipiterà in un lungo conflitto noto come "lotta per le investiture".

Andronicus is counted as one of the Seventy. He and his fellow-worker Junia are mentioned by St Paul in his Epistle to the Romans: "Greet Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen and fellow prisoners, who are of note among the Apostles, who also were in Christ before me" (Romans 16:7). Some, troubled that a woman is mentioned as an Apostle, have attempted to translate "Junia" as "Junias," a man's name; but the Fathers are united in treating her as "Junia." It may be that they were husband and wife, like Aquila and Priscilla (Acts 18), but the ancient witnesses do not tell us. Andronicus became Bishop of Pannonia, but did not stay in one place, instead travelling throughout the world to proclaim the Gospel. Both Andronicus and Junia were granted the gift of wonder-working. Both of them suffered for Christ and were finally martyred.

He was a disciple of Saints Cyril and Methodius (May 11), and traveled with them on their missionary journey to the Slavs. With them and their other companions, he endured many trials, including several imprisonments at the hands of the Latin Franks, who were seeking to seize control of the region of Moravia in order to impose the Latin language and to spread the heresy of the filioque. For a time their troubles were relieved by Pope Hadrian II, who supported the mission and made St Methodius Archbishop of Pannonia, with jurisdiction over the Eastern European Slav lands. But when St Methodius died, St Nahum and his companions were imprisoned once more, then sent into exile, where they finally found shelter in the Orthodox Kingdom of Bulgaria. There they were able to continue their work of evangelization in the Slavonic language. Saint Nahum founded the Monastery that bears his name on the shore of Lake Ochrid. After his repose his relics were brought there for burial, and are venerated there today.

In questa puntata, come preannunciato, affronteremo un argomento che è la vera frontiera della ricerca storico-archeologica contemporanea. Il nostro ospite è Guido Alberto Gnecchi Ruscone, ricercatore del Max Planck institute di Lipsia, nel dipartimento di archeogenetica guidato da Svante Pääbo, novello nobel per la Medicina e uno dei pionieri dello studio del DNA antico. Con Gnecchi Ruscone, autore di un importante paper sull'origine degli Avari, esploreremo le basi scientifiche delle nuove scoperte sul DNA antico e parleremo di alcuni esempi di ricerca, dal rivoluzionario paper che ha stabilito un link tra il cimitero longobardo di Collegno e un cimitero longobardo in Pannonia, passando per una ricerca che ha evidenziato la composizione genetica della popolazione romana attraverso diversi millenni di storia, per finire appunto sull'origine degli Avari. ---Canale YouTube del progetto HistoGenes:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myla0_cCEWU---PER PRENOTARE "IL MIGLIOR NEMICO DI ROMA":- Amazon (link affiliato): https://amzn.to/3DG9FG5- IBS: https://www.ibs.it/miglior-nemico-di-roma-storia-libro-marco-cappelli/e/9788828210085- Feltrinelli: https://www.lafeltrinelli.it/miglior-nemico-di-roma-storia-libro-marco-cappelli/e/9788828210085- Mondadori: https://www.mondadoristore.it/miglior-nemico-Roma-Storia-Marco-Cappelli/eai978882821008/---Ti piace il podcast?

Who was Marcus Aurelius? Marcus Aurelius, in full Caesar Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Augustus, original name (until 161 CE) Marcus Annius Verus, (born April 26, 121 CE, Rome [Italy]—died March 17, 180, Vindobona [Vienna, Austria] or Sirmium, Pannonia), Roman emperor (161–180), best known for his Meditations on Stoic philosophy. Marcus Aurelius symbolized the Golden Age of the Roman Empire for many generations in the West.

It is unlikely that Marcus Aurelius ever intended the writings to be published and the work has no official title, so "Meditations" is one of several titles commonly assigned to the collection. Marcus ruled the Roman empire from AD 161-180. He wrote the 12 books of the Meditations in as a source for his own guidance and self-improvement. It is possible that large portions of the work were written at Sirmium, where he spent much time planning military campaigns from 170 to 180. Some of it was written while he was positioned at Aquincum on campaign in Pannonia, because internal notes tell us that the first book was written when he was campaigning against the Quadi on the river Granova and the second book was written at Carnuntum.

I santi Cirillo e Metodio e la Russia cattolicaIl 7 luglio la liturgia tradizionale della Chiesa celebra i santi Cirillo (815-869) e Metodio (826-885). Il nuovo calendario ha spostato la loro festa a febbraio, ma io vorrei ricordarli in questi giorni per affidare anche alla loro intercessione la guerra tra la Russia e l'Ucraina. Essi infatti evangelizzarono l'antica Russia a cui diedero la lingua e la liturgia.Cirillo e Metodio erano greci, figli d'un alto magistrato di Tessalonica. Prima di essere sacerdoti, furono uomini di grande rilievo pubblico. Metodio divenne governatore di una provincia in Macedonia, mentre Cirillo fu un rinomato professore, si fece monaco e fu inviato in missione presso i Khazari, nella Russia meridionale, che riuscì a portare alla fede cristiana. Avendo il principe di Moravia chiesto a Bisanzio dei missionari che parlassero la lingua del paese, il patriarca Fozio gli inviò i due fratelli. Essi insegnarono ai Moravi a scrivere e composero per essi un nuovo alfabeto, poi conosciuto come cirillico, e tradussero in lingua slava la Bibbia, e la liturgia cristiana. A Cherson sui bordi del Mar Nero, in Crimea, trovarono miracolosamente le reliquie del papa martire Clemente (88-97) che tra l'88 e il 97, aveva subito il martirio, affogato con un'ancora al collo. Una parte delle sue reliquie furono portate a Roma, ma una parte, compresa la testa, furono raccolte nella Chiesa della Dormizione della Vergine a Kyiv, fatta costruire dal principe Vladimir. La venerazione di san Clemente romano, come protettore di Kyiv è uno degli elementi che permette di provare l'origine apostolica della Chiesa della Ru's, che attraverso questo Papa si collegava alla antica tradizione della Chiesa di Roma.Cirillo e Metodio portarono personalmente a Roma le reliquie di san Clemente. Durante il viaggio si fermarono a Venezia, dove ebbero un'animata discussione con i sostenitori della cosiddetta “eresia trilingue”, i quali ritenevano che vi fossero solo tre lingue in cui si poteva lecitamente lodare Dio: l'ebraica, la greca e la latina e contestavano la liturgia slava. A Roma Cirillo e Metodio furono ricevuti dal Papa Adriano II, che andò loro incontro in processione per accogliere degnamente le reliquie di san Clemente. Il Papa aveva anche compreso la grande importanza del loro apostolato e non esitò ad approvare la missione dei due Fratelli accogliendo l'uso della lingua slava nella liturgia. Cirillo morì a Roma il 14 febbraio dell'anno 869, all'età di 42 anni. E' sepolto nella basilica di San Clemente al Laterano, che raccoglie le reliquie del santo papa martire. Metodio nell'870 fu consacrato da Adriano II, arcivescovo di Moravia e Pannonia, con sede in Sirmio, nella Serbia, dove si formò contro di lui un'opposizione. I suoi nemici lo fecero mettere in prigione, ma il Papa intervenne parecchie volte in suo favore e lo fece liberare. Dopo aver convertito alla fede cattolica Borzivoio, Principe dei Boemi, e Ludmilla, sua moglie, Metodio si adoperò per introdurre la luce del Vangelo in Galizia, dove fondò la sede episcopale di Leopoli. Successivamente, recatosi nella Moscovia propriamente detta, fondò il trono pontificale di Kyiv. Morì il 6 aprile 885 rimpianto da tutti; i suoi magnifici funerali furono celebrati in greco, in latino e in slavo. Pio IX autorizzò nel 1863 il culto dei santi Cirillo e Metodio. Nel 1880 Leone XIII con l'enciclica Grande Munus ricordò a tutta la Chiesa gli straordinari meriti dei SS. Cirillo e Metodio ed estese il loro culto alla Chiesa universale, ricordando che “i popoli Slavi, grazie alla loro premura e al loro impegno, conobbero la luce del Vangelo, e da una vita selvatica furono condotti ad una società umana e civile”.Pio XI con la Lettera apostolica Quod Sanctum Cyrillum, qualificò i due fratelli, come "figli dell‟Oriente, di patria bizantini, d'origine greci, per missione romani, per i frutti apostolici slavi”. Giovanni XXIII dedicò a loro l'epistola apostolica Magnifici eventus dell'11 maggio 1963 e Giovanni Paolo II li celebrò con l'enciclica Slavorum Apostoli del 2 giugno 1985. Lo stesso pontefice, con la lettera apostolica Egregiae virtutis del 31 dicembre 1980, proclamò i santi Cirillo e Metodio compatroni d'Europa. I santi Cirillo e Metodio sono citati talvolta come patroni di un ponte ecumenico tra la Chiesa cattolica e quella greco-russa, sulla base di una metafora di Giovanni Paolo II relativa ai due “polmoni” spirituali dell'Europa. Ma lo stesso Giovanni Paolo II chiarì che quando parlò di un'Europa che potesse respirare con due polmoni: quello dell'Occidente e quello dell'Oriente, non si riferiva alla Chiesa cattolica e a quella ortodossa, ma al metodo di evangelizzazione dei santi Cirillo e Metodio, i quali, mossi dall'ideale di unire in Cristo i nuovi credenti, adattarono alla lingua slava i testi liturgici e alle consuetudini dei nuovi popoli il diritto greco-romano (Angelus del 15 febbraio 2004). Come ha scritto Giovanni Paolo II nella Enciclica Slavorum Apostoli, i santi Cirillo e Metodio, anche se consapevoli della superiorità culturale e teologica della eredità greco-bizantina che portavano con sè, ebbero tuttavia il coraggio, per il bene dei popoli slavi, di servirsi di un'altra lingua ed anche di un'altra cultura per l'annuncio della fede. In tal modo la lingua paleoslava costituì nel Battesimo della Rus' un importante strumento, anzitutto per la evangelizzazione e, in seguito, per l'originale sviluppo del futuro patrimonio culturale di quei popoli. La Russia nacque cattolica e, con l'aiuto di Dio e l'intercessione dei santi Cirillo e Metodio, tornerà un giorno pienamente cattolica. La Madonna a Fatima ha trasformato questa speranza in un'infallibile certezza.

Andronicus is counted as one of the Seventy. He and his fellow-worker Junia are mentioned by St Paul in his Epistle to the Romans: "Greet Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen and fellow prisoners, who are of note among the Apostles, who also were in Christ before me" (Romans 16:7). Some, troubled that a woman is mentioned as an Apostle, have attempted to translate "Junia" as "Junias," a man's name; but the Fathers are united in treating her as "Junia." It may be that they were husband and wife, like Aquila and Priscilla (Acts 18), but the ancient witnesses do not tell us. Andronicus became Bishop of Pannonia, but did not stay in one place, instead travelling throughout the world to proclaim the Gospel. Both Andronicus and Junia were granted the gift of wonder-working. Both of them suffered for Christ and were finally martyred.

Marcus Annius Verus, (born April 26, AD 121, Rome—died March 17, 180, Vindobona [Vienna] or Sirmium, Pannonia), was a Roman emperor (161–180). He was born into a wealthy and prominent family. Hadrian arranged that Marcus and Lucius Verus be adopted by the designated future emperor Antoninus Pius, who dutifully groomed Marcus as his heir. On his accession, Marcus nevertheless shared power with his adoptive brother as coemperor, though he himself remained the more dominant. His reign was marked by numerous military crises, all the major frontiers being threatened by invasion. Struggles against the Parthians (162–166) were successful, but returning troops brought a devastating plague to Rome. With a concurrent German invasion, Roman morale declined; the Germans were repulsed, but Verus died during the campaign (169). Marcus made his son Commodus coemperor in 177. Though a man of gentle character and wide learning, Marcus opposed Christianity and supported persecution of its adherents.

In numerous ways, Hungary and France couldn't be more different from one another. Hungary is a landlocked set of hills and plains in south Central Europe, flanked to the North and East by the Carpathian mountain range, and to the West and South by the Drava river. It is a meagre remnant of its former self, having lost two thirds of its territory in the 1920 Trianon Treaty upon losing the First World War. France is a hexagon almost seven times the size, bathed by the Atlantic ocean and the Mediterranean sea. The contrast is even starker in demography than in geography. France is a rapidly aging and growingly childless society, its replacement of successive generations increasingly assured by vast waves of immigration, primarily from south and eastern Europe in the interwar period, and then from former colonies in the the Maghreb and Subsaharan Africa after World War II. Hungarian nationhood, meanwhile, has often dovetailed with descending from the Magyar tribes that first settled into the former Roman province of Pannonia nearly a millennia ago. But for all of their substantial differences, the elections held in these two countries over the past ten days have imparted similar lessons about the challenge of incumbency, the appeal of populism, the impact of international wars and the temptation to shoehorn complex events into readily-baked, cliché narratives. In Hungary, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán campaigned on his sound economic record and on keeping his country out of the Russo-Ukraine war. He was re-elected to serve a fourth consecutive term, his Fidesz party gaining a two thirds supermajority in Parliament. Emmanuel Macron, meanwhile, seems similarly fated for re-election on April 24th after securing a larger gap between his share of the vote and Marine Le Pen's than in the last first-round five years ago. This week, we sit down with our regular US-based co-host Julian Graham to unpack the takeaways from these two races.

ST. MARTIN OF TOURS | PATRON OF THE BEGGARS Feast Day: NOVEMBER 11 Have you seen the photo of a saint on horseback, cutting a cloak with a sword? That's St. Martin of Tours, our saint for today. He is fondly remembered to be kind, generous, humble and devout. St. Martin was born in 316 in Pannonia, Hungary, but his family moved to Pavia, Italy. His parents were non-believers, so at ten years old, Martin asked to be instructed in the Christian faith. He, however, had no chance to be baptized. When he was 15, his father, who was a tribune, (a high-ranking army officer), sent him to the army, cared by a servant. One cold winter in 335, in Amiens, France, the army of Martin was passing by a road where a beggar shivering with cold, asking for help stood by. None of Martin's companions gave anything. Martin, now a young officer, took off his cloak, cut it into two, gave half to the beggar and told him that it was the only thing he could give. That night, Jesus appeared in Martin's dream saying: "Look at this cloak, see if you recognize it."Then Jesus turned to the troop of angels:"Martin, though only a catechumen, has clothed me with his garment." The following day, Martin sought at once to be baptized and became more zealous for the cause of Christ. He instructed others in the faith and went home to convert his family, but he succeeded only with his mother since his father refused. Martin continued his service in the army and because he declined to fight and kill, he went to battle without arms. In one supposed fighting, knowing about Martin, the opposing army agreed for a truce, and no battle took place. But as punishment Martin, was released from the army. Martin went to Italy and was involved in refuting the Arians who denied the divinity of Christ. The Arians were so violent that Martin went on hiding and lived for a while as a hermit in the Adriatic. Later, he went to Tours and met again his former professor, the future St. Hilary of Poitiers. In 371, Tours needed a bishop and the people chose Martin, but Martin rejected the offer. However, the people sought him and were insistent so Martin was consecrated Bishop of Tours. It is recorded that one young man preparing for baptism died. Martin was grief-stricken, and following the example of the Prophet Elijah, he stretched himself on the dead youth and prayed. Miraculously, the life of the young man was restored. Many other miracles happened through the holy prayers of Martin. Martin died on November 11, 397. Formal canonization by the pope started only in the 10th century. After his death, Martin was popularly acclaimed a Saint and a bishop approved it because of his holy life, his prophecies, his works and miracles. “Lord, make us kind hearted like St. Martin and give us the chance to help the needy.” Do I give help to the beggars and the poor around me, or do I avoid meeting them?

I became interested in ancestry after seeing the commercials for Ancestry.com and remembering that my grandmother, Sara Maude Fisher Stairs had always said her son would be the King of England if not for one tragedy in the bloodline that had removed the family from their rightful place. She was about as crazy as they come, but she was so adamant about it that I subscribed to the service to find out. Turns out we do have royal blood, but I never had history in high school and am not sure what tragedy she's referring to. Since there is nothing I could ever buy my dad, because he just didn't want gifts, I would search out some member of his ancestry and print up a binder of genealogy and then stories from people in the chain for him. He always seemed to enjoy learning about his ancestors.

Immediate Family: Son of Clodius I King Of The West Franks, King of the West Franks. It is commonly said that the Franks came originally from Pannonia and first colonized the banks of the Rhine. Then they crossed the river, marched through Thuringia, and set up in each country district and each city long-haired kings chosen from the foremost and most noble family of their race. [...] They also say that Clodio, a man of high birth and marked ability among his people, was King of the Franks and that he lived in the castle of Duisberg in Thuringian territory. In those parts, that is towards the south, the Romans occupied the territory as far as the River Loire. Clodio sent spies to the town of Cambrai. When they discovered all that they needed to know, he himself followed and crushed the Romans and captured the town. He lived there only a short time and then occupied the country up to the Somme. Some say that Merovech, the father of Childeric, was descended from Clodio.

It may be that they were husband and wife, like Aquila and Priscilla (Acts 18), but the ancient witnesses do not tell us. Andronicus became Bishop of Pannonia, but did not stay in one place, instead travelling throughout the world to proclaim the Gospel. Both Andronicus and Junia were granted the gift of wonder-working.

Partiamo dalla Polonia e torniamo ad affrontare il tema della storia e delle politiche di memoria, partendo da due eventi successi nelle due settimane: la nomina dell'antisemita Tomasz Greniuch all'Istituto per la Memoria Nazionale e il processo per diffamazione agli storici Barbara Engelking e Jan Grabowski.Tra ballate romantiche e brani impegnati, testi poetici e denunce contro nazionalismi, autoritarismi e guerre, Djordje Balašević è stato probabilmente il più grande cantautore dei paesi (post-)jugoslavi. La scomparsa di Djole, avvenuta venerdì scorso nella sua Novi Sad, ha riversato un'ondata di commozione su tutta la regione, attraversando confini e generazioni come non succedeva da tempo.

He was a disciple of Saints Cyril and Methodius (May 11), and traveled with them on their missionary journey to the Slavs. With them and their other companions, he endured many trials, including several imprisonments at the hands of the Latin Franks, who were seeking to seize control of the region of Moravia in order to impose the Latin language and to spread the heresy of the filioque. For a time their troubles were relieved by Pope Hadrian II, who supported the mission and made St Methodius Archbishop of Pannonia, with jurisdiction over the Eastern European Slav lands. But when St Methodius died, St Nahum and his companions were imprisoned once more, then sent into exile, where they finally found shelter in the Orthodox Kingdom of Bulgaria. There they were able to continue their work of evangelization in the Slavonic language. Saint Nahum founded the Monastery that bears his name on the shore of Lake Ochrid. After his repose his relics were brought there for burial, and are venerated there today.
This holy and beloved Western Saint, the patron of France, was born in Pannonia (modern-day Hungary) in 316, to a pagan military family stationed there. Soon the family returned home to Italy, where Martin grew up. He began to go to church at the age of ten, and became a catechumen. Though he desired to become a monk, he first entered the army in obedience to his parents. One day, when he was stationed in Amiens in Gaul, he met a poor man shivering for lack of clothing. He had already given all his money as alms, so he drew his sword, cut his soldier's cloak in half, and gave half of it to the poor man. That night Christ appeared to him, clothed in the half-cloak he had given away, and said to His angels, "Martin, though still a catechumen, has clothed me in this garment." Martin was baptised soon afterward. Though he still desired to become a monk, he did not obtain his discharge from the army until many years later, in 356. He soon became a disciple of St Hilary of Poitiers (commemorated January 13), the "Athanasius of the West." After traveling in Pannonia and Italy (where he converted his mother to faith in Christ), he returned to Gaul, where the Arian heretics were gaining much ground. Not long afterward became Bishop of Tours, where he shone as a shepherd of the Church: bringing pagans to the faith, healing the sick, establishing monastic life throughout Gaul, and battling the Arian heresy so widespread throughout the West. Finding the episcopal residence too grand, he lived in a rude, isolated wooden hut, even while fulfilling all the duties of a Bishop of the Church. His severity against heresy was always accompanied by love and kindness toward all: he once traveled to plead with the Emperor Maximus to preserve the lives of some Priscillianist heretics whom the Emperor meant to execute. As the holy Bishop lay dying in 397, the devil appeared to tempt him one last time. The Saint said, "You will find nothing in me that belongs to you. Abraham's bosom is about to receive me." With these words he gave up his soul to God. He is the first confessor who was not a martyr to be named a Saint in the West. His biographer, Sulpitius Severus, wrote of him: "Martin never let an hour or a moment go by without giving himself to prayer or to reading and, even as he read or was otherwise occupied, he never ceased from prayer to God. He was never seen out of temper or disturbed, distressed or laughing. Always one and the same, his face invariably shining with heavenly joy, he seemed to have surpassed human nature. In his mouth was nothing but the Name of Christ and in his soul nothing but love, peace and mercy." Note: St Martin is commemorated on this day in the Greek and Slavic Synaxaria; his commemoration in the West, where he is especially honored, is on November 11.
Per parlare della storia della Slovenia dobbiamo distinguere tra quella del suo territorio, corrispondente alla parte meridionale dell’antica Pannonia, a quella orientale dell’Istria e a quella settentrionale della Dalmazia, e quella dei suoi abitanti, gli Sloveni, che vi giunsero solo nel VI secolo d.C.

He and his fellow-worker Junia are mentioned by St Paul in his Epistle to the Romans: "Greet Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen and fellow prisoners, who are of note among the Apostles, who also were in Christ before me" (Romans 16:7). Some, troubled that a woman is mentioned as an Apostle, have attempted to translate "Junia" as "Junias," a man's name; but the Fathers are united in treating her as "Junia." It may be that they were husband and wife, like Aquila and Priscilla (Acts 18), but the ancient witnesses do not tell us. Andronicus became Bishop of Pannonia, but did not stay in one place, instead travelling throughout the world to proclaim the Gospel. Both Andronicus and Junia were granted the gift of wonder-working. Both of them suffered for Christ and were finally martyred.

This holy and beloved Western Saint, the patron of France, was born in Pannonia (modern-day Hungary) in 316, to a pagan military family stationed there. Soon the family returned home to Italy, where Martin grew up. He began to go to church at the age of ten, and became a catechumen. Though he desired to become a monk, he first entered the army in obedience to his parents. One day, when he was stationed in Amiens in Gaul, he met a poor man shivering for lack of clothing. He had already given all his money as alms, so he drew his sword, cut his soldier's cloak in half, and gave half of it to the poor man. That night Christ appeared to him, clothed in the half-cloak he had given away, and said to His angels, "Martin, though still a catechumen, has clothed me in this garment." Martin was baptised soon afterward. Though he still desired to become a monk, he did not obtain his discharge from the army until many years later, in 356. He soon became a disciple of St Hilary of Poitiers (commemorated January 13), the "Athanasius of the West." After traveling in Pannonia and Italy (where he converted his mother to faith in Christ), he returned to Gaul, where the Arian heretics were gaining much ground. Not long afterward became Bishop of Tours, where he shone as a shepherd of the Church: bringing pagans to the faith, healing the sick, establishing monastic life throughout Gaul, and battling the Arian heresy so widespread throughout the West. Finding the episcopal residence too grand, he lived in a rude, isolated wooden hut, even while fulfilling all the duties of a Bishop of the Church. His severity against heresy was always accompanied by love and kindness toward all: he once traveled to plead with the Emperor Maximus to preserve the lives of some Priscillianist heretics whom the Emperor meant to execute. As the holy Bishop lay dying in 397, the devil appeared to tempt him one last time. The Saint said, "You will find nothing in me that belongs to you. Abraham's bosom is about to receive me." With these words he gave up his soul to God. He is the first confessor who was not a martyr to be named a Saint in the West. His biographer, Sulpitius Severus, wrote of him: "Martin never let an hour or a moment go by without giving himself to prayer or to reading and, even as he read or was otherwise occupied, he never ceased from prayer to God. He was never seen out of temper or disturbed, distressed or laughing. Always one and the same, his face invariably shining with heavenly joy, he seemed to have surpassed human nature. In his mouth was nothing but the Name of Christ and in his soul nothing but love, peace and mercy." Note: St Martin is commemorated on this day in the Greek and Slavic Synaxaria; his commemoration in the West, where he is especially honored, is on November 11.

Meditations (Medieval Greek: Τὰ εἰς ἑαυτόν, romanized: Ta eis heauton, literally "things to one's self") is a series of personal writings by Marcus Aurelius, Roman Emperor from 161 to 180 AD, recording his private notes to himself and ideas on Stoic philosophy. #MarcusAurelius wrote the 12 books of the #Meditations in Koine Greek[1] as a source for his own guidance and self-improvement.[2] It is possible that large portions of the work were written at Sirmium, where he spent much time planning military campaigns from 170 to 180. Some of it was written while he was positioned at Aquincum on campaign in Pannonia, because internal notes tell us that the first book was written when he was campaigning against the Quadi on the river Granova (modern-day Hron) and the second book was written at Carnuntum. It is unlikely that Marcus Aurelius ever intended the writings to be published and the work has no official title, so "Meditations" is one of several titles commonly assigned to the collection. These writings take the form of quotations varying in length from one sentence to long paragraphs. History of the text There is no certain mention of the Meditations until the early 10th century.[5] A doubtful mention is made by the orator Themistius in about AD 364. In an address to the emperor Valens, On Brotherly Love, he says: "You have no need of the exhortations (Greek: παραγγέλματα) of Marcus."[6] Another possible reference is in the collection of Greek poems known as the Palatine Anthology, a work dating to the 10th-century but containing much earlier material. The anthology contains an epigram dedicated to "the Book of Marcus". It has been proposed that this epigram was written by the Byzantine scholar Theophylact Simocatta in the 7th-century.[7] The first direct mention of the work comes from Arethas of Caesarea (c. 860–935), a bishop who was a great collector of manuscripts.[8] At some date before 907 he sent a volume of the Meditations to Demetrius, Archbishop of Heracleia, with a letter saying: "I have had for some time an old copy of the Emperor Marcus' most profitable book, so old indeed that it is altogether falling to pieces . . . This I have had copied and am able to hand down to posterity in its new dress."[9] Arethas also mentions the work in marginal notes (scholia) to books by Lucian and Dio Chrysostom where he refers to passages in the "Treatise to Himself" (Greek: τὰ εἰς ἑαυτὸν ἠθικά), and it was this title which the book bore in the manuscript from which the first printed edition was made in the 16th-century.[10][11] Arethas' own copy has now vanished, but it is thought to be the likely ancestor of the surviving manuscripts.[9] The next mention of the Meditations is in the Suda lexicon published in the late 10th-century.[10] The Suda calls the work "a directing (Greek: ἀγωγή) of his own life by Marcus the Emperor in twelve books,"[11] which is the first mention of a division of the work into twelve books.[10] The Suda makes use of some thirty quotations taken from books I, III, IV, V, IX, and XI.[11] Around 1150, John Tzetzes, a grammarian of Constantinople, quotes passages from Books IV and V attributing them to Marcus.[11] About 200 years later Nicephorus Callistus (c. 1295–1360) in his Ecclesiastical History writes that "Marcus Antoninus composed a book for the education of his son Marcus [i.e. Commodus] , full of all worldly (Greek: κοσμικῆς) experience and instruction."[11][12] The Meditations is thereafter quoted in many Greek compilations from the 14th to 16th centuries.[12] Wilhelm Xylander first translated the Meditations into Latin in 1558. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/vegansteven/message

SUPREMI APOSTOLATUS OFFICIO ENCYCLICAL OF POPE LEO XIII ON DEVOTION OF THE ROSARY Venerable Brethren, Health and the Apostolic Benediction. The supreme Apostolic office which we discharge and the exceedingly difficult condition of these times, daily warn and almost compel Us to watch carefully over the integrity of the Church, the more that the calamities from which she suffers are greater. While, therefore, we endeavour in every way to preserve the rights of the Church and to obviate or repel present or contingent dangers, We constantly seek for help from Heaven - the sole means of effecting anything - that our labours and our care may obtain their wished for object. We deem that there could be no surer and more efficacious means to this end than by religion and piety to obtain the favour of the great Virgin Mary, the Mother of God, the guardian of our peace and the minister to us of heavenly grace, who is placed on the highest summit of power and glory in Heaven, in order that she may bestow the help of her patronage on men who through so many labours and dangers are striving to reach that eternal city. Now that the anniversary, therefore, of manifold and exceedingly great favours obtained by a Christian people through the devotion of the Rosary is at hand, We desire that that same devotion should be offered by the whole Catholic world with the greatest earnestness to the Blessed Virgin, that by her intercession her Divine Son may be appeased and softened in the evils which afflict us. And therefore We determined, Venerable Brethren, to despatch to you these letters in order that, informed of Our designs, your authority and zeal might excite the piety of your people to conform themselves to them. 2. It has always been the habit of Catholics in danger and in troublous times to fly for refuge to Mary, and to seek for peace in her maternal goodness; showing that the Catholic Church has always, and with justice, put all her hope and trust in the Mother of God. And truly the Immaculate Virgin, chosen to be the Mother of God and thereby associated with Him in the work of man's salvation, has a favour and power with her Son greater than any human or angelic creature has ever obtained, or ever can gain. And, as it is her greatest pleasure to grant her help and comfort to those who seek her, it cannot be doubted that she would deign, and even be anxious, to receive the aspirations of the universal Church. 3. This devotion, so great and so confident, to the august Queen of Heaven, has never shone forth with such brilliancy as when the militant Church of God has seemed to be endangered by the violence of heresy spread abroad, or by an intolerable moral corruption, or by the attacks of powerful enemies. Ancient and modern history and the more sacred annals of the Church bear witness to public and private supplications addressed to the Mother of God, to the help she has granted in return, and to the peace and tranquillity which she had obtained from God. Hence her illustrious titles of helper, consoler, mighty in war, victorious, and peace-giver. And amongst these is specially to be commemorated that familiar title derived from the Rosary by which the signal benefits she has gained for the whole of Christendom have been solemnly perpetuated. There is none among you, venerable brethren, who will not remember how great trouble and grief God's Holy Church suffered from the Albigensian heretics, who sprung from the sect of the later Manicheans, and who filled the South of France and other portions of the Latin world with their pernicious errors, and carrying everywhere the terror of their arms, strove far and wide to rule by massacre and ruin. Our merciful God, as you know, raised up against these most direful enemies a most holy man, the illustrious parent and founder of the Dominican Order. Great in the integrity of his doctrine, in his example of virtue, and by his apostolic labours, he proceeded undauntedly to attack the enemies of the Catholic Church, not by force of arms; but trusting wholly to that devotion which he was the first to institute under the name of the Holy Rosary, which was disseminated through the length and breadth of the earth by him and his pupils. Guided, in fact, by divine inspiration and grace, he foresaw that this devotion, like a most powerful warlike weapon, would be the means of putting the enemy to flight, and of confounding their audacity and mad impiety. Such was indeed its result. Thanks to this new method of prayer-when adopted and properly carried out as instituted by the Holy Father St. Dominic-piety, faith, and union began to return, and the projects and devices of the heretics to fall to pieces. Many wanderers also returned to the way of salvation, and the wrath of the impious was restrained by the arms of those Catholics who had determined to repel their violence. 4. The efficacy and power of this devotion was also wondrously exhibited in the sixteenth century, when the vast forces of the Turks threatened to impose on nearly the whole of Europe the yoke of superstition and barbarism. At that time the Supreme Pontiff, St. Pius V., after rousing the sentiment of a common defence among all the Christian princes, strove, above all, with the greatest zeal, to obtain for Christendom the favour of the most powerful Mother of God. So noble an example offered to heaven and earth in those times rallied around him all the minds and hearts of the age. And thus Christ's faithful warriors, prepared to sacrifice their life and blood for the salvation of their faith and their country, proceeded undauntedly to meet their foe near the Gulf of Corinth, while those who were unable to take part formed a pious band of supplicants, who called on Mary, and unitedly saluted her again and again in the words of the Rosary, imploring her to grant the victory to their companions engaged in battle. Our Sovereign Lady did grant her aid; for in the naval battle by the Echinades Islands, the Christian fleet gained a magnificent victory, with no great loss to itself, in which the enemy were routed with great slaughter. And it was to preserve the memory of this great boon thus granted, that the same Most Holy Pontiff desired that a feast in honour of Our Lady of Victories should celebrate the anniversary of so memorable a struggle, the feast which Gregory XIII. dedicated under the title of "The Holy Rosary." Similarly, important successes were in the last century gained over the Turks at Temeswar, in Pannonia, and at Corfu; and in both cases these engagements coincided with feasts of the Blessed Virgin and with the conclusion of public devotions of the Rosary. And this led our predecessor, Clement XL, in his gratitude, to decree that the Blessed Mother of God should every year be especially honoured in her Rosary by the whole Church. 5. Since, therefore, it is clearly evident that this form of prayer is particularly pleasing to the Blessed Virgin, and that it is especially suitable as a means of defence for the Church and all Christians, it is in no way wonderful that several others of Our Predecessors have made it their aim to favour and increase its spread by their high recommendations. Thus Urban IV, testified that "every day the Rosary obtained fresh boon for Christianity." Sixtus IV declared that this method of prayer "redounded to the honour of God and the Blessed Virgin, and was well suited to obviate impending dangers;" Leo X that "it was instituted to oppose pernicious heresiarchs and heresies;" while Julius III called it "the glory of the Church." So also St. Pius V., that "with the spread of this devotion the meditations of the faithful have begun to be more inflamed, their prayers more fervent, and they have suddenly become different men; the darkness of heresy has been dissipated, and the light of Catholic faith has broken forth again." Lastly Gregory XIII in his turn pronounced that "the Rosary had been instituted by St. Dominic to appease the anger of God and to implore the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary." 6. Moved by these thoughts and by the examples of Our Predecessors, We have deemed it most opportune for similar reasons to institute solemn prayers and to endeavour by adopting those addressed to the Blessed Virgin in the recital of the Rosary to obtain from her son Jesus Christ a similar aid against present dangers. You have before your eyes, Venerable Brethren, the trials to which the Church is daily exposed; Christian piety, public morality, nay, even faith itself, the supreme good and beginning of all the other virtues, all are daily menaced with the greatest perils. 7. Nor are you only spectators of the difficulty of the situation, but your charity, like Ours, is keenly wounded; for it is one of the most painful and grievous sights to see so many souls, redeemed by the blood of Christ, snatched from salvation by the whirlwind of an age of error, precipitated into the abyss of eternal death. Our need of divine help is as great today as when the great Dominic introduced the use of the Rosary of Mary as a balm for the wounds of his contemporaries. 8. That great saint indeed, divinely enlightened, perceived that no remedy would be more adapted to the evils of his time than that men should return to Christ, who "is the way, the truth, and the life," by frequent meditation on the salvation obtained for Us by Him, and should seek the intercession with God of that Virgin, to whom it is given to destroy all heresies. He therefore so composed the Rosary as to recall the mysteries of our salvation in succession, and the subject of meditation is mingled and, as it were, interlaced with the Angelic salutation and with the prayer addressed to God, the Father of Our Lord Jesus Christ. We, who seek a remedy for similar evils, do not doubt therefore that the prayer introduced by that most blessed man with so much advantage to the Catholic world, will have the greatest effect in removing the calamities of our times also. Not only do We earnestly exhort all Christians to give themselves to the recital of the pious devotion of the Rosary publicly, or privately in their own house and family, and that unceasingly, but we also desire that the whole of the month of October in this year should be consecrated to the Holy Queen of the Rosary. We decree and order that in the whole Catholic world, during this year, the devotion of the Rosary shall be solemnly celebrated by special and splendid services. From the first day of next October, therefore, until the second day of the November following, in every parish and, if the ecclesiastical authority deem it opportune and of use, in every chapel dedicated to the Blessed Virgin - let five decades of the Rosary be recited with the addition of the Litany of Loreto. We desire that the people should frequent these pious exercises; and We will that either Mass shall be said at the altar, or that the Blessed Sacrament shall be exposed to the adoration of the faithful, Benediction being afterwards given with the Sacred Host to the pious congregation. We highly approve of the confraternities of the Holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin going in procession, following ancient custom, through the town, as a public demonstration of their devotion. And in those places where this is not possible, let it be replaced by more assiduous visits to the churches, and let the fervour of piety display itself by a still greater diligence in the exercise of the Christian virtues. 9. In favour of those who shall do as We have above laid down, We are pleased to open the heavenly treasure-house of the Church that they may find therein at once encouragements and rewards for their piety. We therefore grant to all those who, in the prescribed space of time, shall have taken part in the public recital of the Rosary and the Litanies, and shall have prayed for Our intention, seven years and seven times forty days of indulgence, obtainable each time. We will that those also shall share in these favours who are hindered by a lawful cause from joining in these public prayers of which We have spoken, provided that they shall have practiced those devotions in private and shall have prayed to God for Our intention. We remit all punishment and penalties for sins committed, in the form of a Pontifical indulgence, to all who, in the prescribed time, either publicly in the churches or privately at home (when hindered from the former by lawful cause) shall have at least twice practiced these pious exercises; and who shall have, after due confession, approached the holy table. We further grant a plenary indulgence to those who, either on the feast of the Blessed Virgin of the Rosary or within its octave, after having similarly purified their souls by a salutary confession, shall have approached the table of Christ and prayed in some church according to Our intention to God and the Blessed Virgin for the necessities of the Church. 10. And you, Venerable Brethren, - the more you have at heart the honour of Mary, and the welfare of human society, the more diligently apply yourselves to nourish the piety of the people towards the great Virgin, and to increase their confidence in her. We believe it to be part of the designs of Providence that, in these times of trial for the Church, the ancient devotion to the august Virgin should live and flourish amid the greatest part of the Christian world. May now the Christian nations, excited by Our exhortations, and inflamed by your appeals, seek the protection of Mary with an ardour growing greater day by day; let them cling more and more to the practice of the Rosary, to that devotion which our ancestors were in the habit of practicing, not only as an ever-ready remedy for their misfortunes, but as a whole badge of Christian piety. The heavenly Patroness of the human race will receive with joy these prayers and supplications, and will easily obtain that the good shall grow in virtue, and that the erring should return to salvation and repent; and that God who is the avenger of crime, moved to mercy and pity may deliver Christendom and civil society from all dangers, and restore to them peace so much desired. 11. Encouraged by this hope, We beseech God Himself, with the most earnest desire of Our heart, through her in whom he has placed the fulness of all good, to grant you. Venerable Brethren, every gift of heavenly blessing. As an augury and pledge of which, We lovingly impart to you, to your clergy, and to the people entrusted to your care, the Apostolic Benediction. Given in Rome, at St. Peter's, the 1st of September, 1883, in the sixth year of Our Pontificate.

Andronicus is counted as one of the Seventy. He and his fellow-worker Junia are mentioned by St Paul in his Epistle to the Romans: "Greet Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen and fellow prisoners, who are of note among the Apostles, who also were in Christ before me" (Romans 16:7). Some, troubled that a woman is mentioned as an Apostle, have attempted to translate "Junia" as "Junias," a man's name; but the Fathers are united in treating her as "Junia." It may be that they were husband and wife, like Aquila and Priscilla (Acts 18), but the ancient witnesses do not tell us. Andronicus became Bishop of Pannonia, but did not stay in one place, instead travelling throughout the world to proclaim the Gospel. Both Andronicus and Junia were granted the gift of wonder-working. Both of them suffered for Christ and were finally martyred.
