Episode 9: Notre Dame Dr. Ann T. Orlando Music ‘Pange Lingua’

Timeline Theme: The Church and Development of Universities

Building the Cathedral of Notre Dame By tradition, the first stone was laid in 1163 But not completed until 1250, with additional work after that for the next several centuries Built in the ‘Gothic’ style that became the standard for grand church architecture throughout Europe in the Middle Ages As the primary cathedral of Paris, Notre Dame assumed an important role in Church and French political history

Early Paris Paris started as a Roman town, Lutetium – Renamed Paris in 3 rd C after local Celtic tribe First Christian missionaries probably sent by Pope Fabian in 3 rd C – First bishop was Dionysius, or Denis – St. Denis and his companions was martyred by the Romans on Montmarte (Mont of the martyrs) There may have been a pagan temple where Notre Dame now stands – After Constantine the Great, several churches were built in Paris, including one on the site of Notre Dame

Importance of Paris in Middle Ages During the Middle Ages, Paris was transformed from a small fishing and trading town to an important political capital With this transformation, Church in Paris also became very important – A place of learning

Beginning of University System Churches, especially cathedrals, and monasteries were primary sources of education for over 1,000 years in Europe During 11 th C, Pope Gregory VII initiated many reforms, including requirements for education of secular clergy – Bishops established cathedral schools – Education focused on Canon law, administration, higher learning – Enrollment not limited to clergy The university system as we know it today grew out of the Cathedral schools of the Middle Ages – Most famous and important was the Cathedral School of Notre Dame – Became the University of Paris, also known as the Sorbonne – Students from all over Europe sought to enter the most prestigious schools To be an universitas an institution had to recognized as such by the Vatican ‘Nation’ was a fraternal group of students at the major universities who came from the same region and spoke the same language

Medieval University Degrees Bachelors degree – Six years to obtain – Study of seven liberal arts Masters degree – Four to six more years – Specialization in Law, medicine or theology – Theology was most important and prestigious – Holder of masters degree could teach others Doctorate – Several more years of study – Holder could teach at most prestigious universities Two great professors, theologians and doctors of the Church in 13 th C – St. Thomas Aquinas, Dominican – St. Bonaventure, Franciscan

St. Thomas Aquinas ( ) Born in Italy, studied in Italy and Paris Dominican – Student and professor at University of Paris Key Influences – Albert the Great – Church Fathers – Aristotle – Earlier Aristotelian commentators, especially Averroes and Maimonides Feast Day is January 28

Thomas Aquinas Angelic Doctor Developed systematic approach to theology using Aristotelian methods (Aristotle as the Philosopher in the Summa) Relied on newly available Greek works from Jewish and Moslem sources; Moses Maimonides, Averrhoes Very different from theological approach; Aristotelian rather than neo-Platonic – Emphasis on causes – Emphasis on categories Two great works: Summa Theologica (theological) or Theologiae (theology); Summa Contra Gentiles But he also wrote beautiful songs, especially in praise of Eucharist (one of which we sing at Benediction, and another during Holy Thursday)

Adoro Te Devote by Thomas Aquinas Godhead here in hiding, whom I do adore Masked by these bare shadows, shape and nothing more, See, Lord, at thy service low lies here a heart Lost, all lost in wonder at the God thou art. Seeing, touching, tasting are in thee deceived; How says trusty hearing? that shall be believed; What God's Son has told me, take for truth I do; Truth himself speaks truly or there's nothing true. From CCC translated by Gerard Manley Hopkins

St. Bonaventure ( ) Student and professor at University of Paris when Aquinas was there Becomes head of Franciscans shortly after Francis Describes Franciscan way of life in philosophical terms Very dependent on St. Augustine Known as the Seraphic Doctor, Feast Day July 15

Itinerarium or Journey of the Mind to God Written as a retreat guide for students at University of Paris Details steps of spiritual progress – Mimics pilgrimage itinerary – Approach God by leaving world behind – Deeply mystical work

Later History of Notre Dame Cathedral During the French Revolution, , Notre Dame was taken over by the enlightenment revolutionaries – Turned into a ‘temple of reason’ – Most of the religious decorations and stained glass were defaced Restored to the Church by Napoleon in 1802 – Extensive restoration efforts – Re-dedicated in 1864 Remains the primary Cathedral of Paris today And the University of Paris, remains one of the most important universities in the world
