1500 Works: 1500 Architecture, 1500 Books, 1500 Paintings, Tantrasamgraha, Adagia, Dunfermline Palace, Cadzow Castle, Map of Juan de La Cosa $14.13 Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: The map or chart of Juan de la Cosa is a mappa mundi painted on parchment , 93 cm high and 183 cm wide, currently preserved at the Museo Naval of Madrid (Spain ). A line of text on the map says it was made by cartographer and sailor Juan de la Cosa in 1500 in the Andalusian port city of Puerto de Santa María . Its rich decoration hints that it was ordered by some powerful member of the court of the Catholic Monarchs , who ruled the kingdoms of Castile and Aragon at that time.This map is the earliest undisputed representation of the Americas. Some historians have claimed that some of the Antilles appear on earlier maps such as the Pizzigano chart of 1424 but there is no consensus about it. Furthermore, the Vinland map shows part of North America but its dating is controversial. The La Cosa map shows the lands discovered up to the end of the 15th century by Castilian , Portuguese and English expeditions to America . It also depicts a large fraction of the Old World , according to the style of medieval portolan charts and including news of the arrival of Vasco de Gama to India in 1498. The map of Juan de la Cosa is the only cartographic work made by an eyewitness of the first voyages of Christopher Columbus to the Indies that has been preserved. Possibly as an allusion to Columbus, it contains a large image of Saint Christopher that covers the region where Central America should have appeared. On the other hand, Cuba is drawn as an island, which contradicts Columbus’ opinion that it was a peninsula of Asia.

Excerpt: The Academy of Saumur was a Huguenot university at Saumur in western France. It existed from 1593, when it was founded by Philippe de Mornay , until shortly after 1683, when Louis XIV decided on the revocation of the Edict of Nantes , ending the limited toleration of Protestantism in France.Amyraldism Main article: Amyraldism The Academy was the home of Amyraldism , an important strand of Protestant thought of the seventeenth century. Also called Salmurianism or hypothetical universalism, it was a movement remaining within Calvinism .The French theologians at Saumur, in the 17th century, taught also that Christ came into the world to do whatever was necessary for the salvation of men. But God, foreseeing that, if left to themselves, men would universally reject the offers of mercy, elected some to be the subjects of his saving grace by which they are brought to faith and repentance According to this view of the plan of salvation, election is |

Her father was Thomas Palaeologus, the Despot of Morea. Together with her brothers, she was taken to Rome after the conquest of Morea by Mehmed II of the Ottoman Empire in 1460. In Rome, her Greek name Zoe was changed to Sophia. Born as an Orthodox, it is possible that she was raised as a Catholic in Rome. In 1469, Pope Paul II offered to marry her to the Russian monarch in order to unite the Orthodox and Catholic churches. She entered Russia with a grand entourage and was welcomed in the city of Pskov, were she was officially celebrated it was noticed, that she thanked the public herself for the celebrations.

See also (online edition) References (URLs online) Holweck, F. G. A Biographical Dictionary of the Saints . St. Louis, MO: B. Herder Book Co., 1924. A hyperlinked version of this chapter is at Anna at the presentation of Jesus (right), from Giotto, Chapel of Scrovegni. Anna (Hebrew : , Ancient Greek : ) or Anna the Prophetess was a biblical figure mentioned only in the Gospel of Luke . According to that Gospel, she was an aged Jewish prophetess who prophesied about Jesus at the Temple of Jerusalem . She appears in Luke 2:36-38 in the episode of the presentation of Jesus at the Temple . While Luke gave some elements, Anna’s life and background are obscure. From the three verses in Luke, the following is known of Anna: Age Luke describes Anna as “very old.” Many Bibles and older commentaries state that she was 84 years old. Modern translations, such as the NIV , ESV , CEV , and NLT , add a footnote indicating that another interpretation is possible. Literally, Luke 2:36-37 says that Anna “lived with her husband seven years after her marriage, and then was a widow until eighty-four years.” The passage |

Peter was the son of John or of Jonah, and was from the village of Bethsaida in the province of Galilee. His brother Andrew was also an apostle. Simon Peter is venerated in multiple churches and regarded as the first Pope by the Roman Catholic Church. After working to establish the church of Antioch for seven years presiding as the city’s bishop and preaching to the ones who were scattered (i.e., Jews and Hebrew Christians.), in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia Minor and Bithynia, Peter went to Rome. In the second year of Claudius, it is claimed, he overthrew Simon Magus, and held the Sacerdotal Chair for 25 years. At the hand of Nero, |

Spanish architect Claudio de Arciniega planned the construction, drawing inspiration from Gothic cathedrals in Spain. The cathedral has four facades which contain portals flanked with columns and statues. The two bell towers contain a total of 25 bells. The tabernacle, adjacent to the cathedral, contains the baptistery and serves to register the parishioners. There are two large, ornate altars, a sacristy, and a choir in the cathedral.

Excerpt: Saint Nicholas (Greek: , Agios Nikolaos ) (270 – 6 December 346) is the canonical and most popular name for Nicholas of Myra, a saint and Greek Bishop of Myra (Demre, in Lycia, part of modern-day Turkey). Because of the many miracles attributed to his intercession, he is also known as Nicholas the Wonderworker. He had a reputation for secret gift-giving, such as putting coins in the shoes of those who left them out for him, and thus became the model for Santa Claus, whose English name comes from the Dutch Sinterklaas. His reputation evolved among the faithful, as is common for early Christian saints. In 1087, his relics were furtively translated to Bari, in southeastern Italy; for this reason, he is also known as, Nicholas of Bari. The historical Saint Nicholas is remembered and revered among Catholic and Orthodox Christians. He is also honoured by various Anglican and Lutheran churches. Saint Nicholas is the patron saint of sailors, merchants, archers, thieves, and child… More: |

Nothing is known historically about these saints except their names, that they were martyrs, and that they were buried on 30 July of some year in the Cemetery of Pontianus on the Via Portuensis . Because of this lack of knowledge about them, they are no longer listed in the Roman Catholic Calendar of Saints to be commemorated liturgically worldwide, but they may still be celebrated everywhere on their feast day unless in some locality an obligatory celebration is assigned to that day. The rank of their celebration was given as “Simple” in the Tridentine Calendar and remained such until the classification was changed to that of “Commemoration” in the General Roman Calendar of 1962 .Their Acts, |

Miracle Of Saint Catherine Of Bologna
Copyright (c) 2010 Bob and Penny Lord’s Site
Saint Catherine of Bologna
From Visionaries, Mystics and Stigmatists
Perhaps, one of the greatest Miracles is the incorrupt body of our Saint, seated on a regal throne in a Chapel to the left of the main altar in the Church of Corpus Domini in Bologna.
It remains intact, never having decomposed for over five hundred years!
In the beginning, after they realized they could not place her body in the grave, four nuns would carry Saint Catherine’s body to the parlor on a wooden stretcher, every time visitors came to view the body, or the faithful wanted to venerate the Saint.
This went on for twelve years!
Then the nuns decided that the faithful could view her better if she were seated on a chair.
To their amazement, her body which had lost none of its suppleness, rigor mortis never having set in, became stiff, and the nuns could not place her in the chair.
It was only when the Abbess ordered her, did Catherine, out of obedience, sit unaided in the chair and in the same position she can be found to this day.
Our Saint wanted to be where all the people of God could venerate her easily, and so she appeared to one of the nuns of the Monastery of Corpus Domini and told her she wanted a Chapel built close to the outer church.
Previously, she had been in a Chapel inside the Monastery.
From the very beginning, Saint Catherine’s Miracles and fame have brought people from all parts of the world, not only the simple faith-filled believers who fill and enrich our beautiful Church, but also future Saints, Kings and Queens and scholars.
Among the first to come was Queen Isabel of Naples, Italy, who arriving in her regal finery, venerated our Saint and then left her ring as a token of her affection. She was followed by Popes (one of whom was Pope Clement VII), Cardinals (including St. Charles Borromeo who gifted her with a precious vestment), Emperors, Princes and all kinds of personages.
Pope Clement VII granted the nuns permission to say the Office and celebrate Holy Mass in honor of Saint Catherine on March 9th which became her Feast Day. He inscribed her name in the Martyrology of Saints of the Roman Catholic Church. He was followed by other Popes who have granted indulgences and privileges to pilgrims coming to the Sacred place to venerate the saint.
The process for her Canonization was started in 1669 and was solemnly concluded on Trinity Sunday, the 22nd of May, 1712 when Pope Clement IX proclaimed to the whole world, to the whole Roman Catholic Church that we had a Saint!
The first time we went to visit Saint Catherine, it was out of holy curiosity; her body was incorrupt! But when we got there, we discovered a very powerful Saint who became very personal to us. We have loved her since 1977, the first time we brought our grandson, all of ten years old, to Europe with us. We hope reading about her that you will turn to her and get to know her with your head and heart, as we have.
