Parish Registers

This article is an attempt to review religious and cultural features and to find published images on the pages of parish registers of different creeds. To determine and study the relevant and cultural features of the information recording in the parish registers, we considered appropriate to consolidate the comparative and historical-cultural method. The interest of scholars and novelty are proved due to the extremely large information potential of the church reports of civil status, considering their large array in the state archives and satisfactory physical status, suitable for appendage.The study of ecclesiastical acts of civil status makes it possible to study the religious and cultural peculiarities via the records characteristic for representatives of different religions. We should separately mention the peculiarities of the entries in parish registers of the Orthodox population regarding the veneration of holy figures according to the church calendar, which impacted the naming of newborns. Jewish records are characterized by the rite of circumcision of newborn boys and records as for a marriage contract (“ksubba / ktubba”).German-language parish registers attract attention to the double names given to newborn babies, the obligation to declare an forthcoming marriage, and the presence of family information in records of the deceased.

The generalization of the registration of baptism and marriage in the Catholic countries is shown to be the result of a process in which France used the authority of the Council of Trent to impose on the whole Church a system of public registration it had started to implement through temporal law at home in 1539, so that the clerics in charge of the registration be subject to canonical penalties if they failed to comply. The registration of baptism and marriage was integrated into the Decree on the Reformation of Marriage that France maneuvered to impose on the Church to curb clandestine marriages which had dire effects on estate planning in France, given the peculiarities of its inheritance and matrimonial law.

The history of many families has a tradition of ties with Krakow, the effect of which is the search for documents that confirm this. A search can be made on the Internet in printed materials, e.g. address books, published in Krakow from 1905, containing alphabetical lists of residents, lists of property owners, representatives of particular professions, offices along with the names of officials. The censuses of the population of the city of Krakow from 1850-1921, preserved in the resources of the National Archives in Krakow, are made available on the Internet on the websiteukajwarchiwach.gov.pl. Gradually, more and more archives are presented there, among others civil status files. However, due to the limitations of the possibility of publishing data on the Internet by state archives, some archival materials invaluable for genealogists are still available only in archival reading rooms, e.g. applications for issuing identity cards or files of inheritance cases conducted by courts. An important source for researchers are school files collected by the Archive and documentation concerning the course of employment, for example, of railway workers, teachers, notaries, doctors and officials.

This chapter reveals what was new to the material culture of courtship, from porcelain snuffboxes and glass signets printed with romantic motifs to the increasingly elaborate laced and embossed valentine cards sold by printers, booksellers, and stationers’ shops. The Georgian era is presented as an important transitional period in the modernization and commercialization of romantic customs. After Hardwicke’s Marriage Act of 1753 required marriages to take place at church in a single legal event—precluding suits in the church courts to compel the performance of a marriage contract—courting couples exchanged an ever-diversifying range of new consumer goods as romantic gifts. A growing number and variety of novelty items such as printed handkerchiefs were designed specifically as valentine souvenirs, as Valentine’s Day developed into a love industry. The chapter explores how love was packaged and sold to consumers in new ways, and the consequences of this shift for the rituals and experiences of romantic love.

AbstractChurch and Ecclesiastical Law in German language and beyond. Searching for sense in human life, already in prehistoric times, men developed religious notions. Jesus (Christ), born at Bethlehem about 2020 years ago, declared himself to be the unique son of god Jahwe and was therefore crucified by Romans and Jews at Jerusalem. Nevertheless billions of men and women believed in his miraculous resurrection and his sacrifice for the salvation of mankind – among them almost every individual speaking German. The study shows how the Christian term ‘church’, derived from Greek kyrios (master), was adopted and spread in old German languages. Various parts of human law in general, which were and are influenced by Christian thought, were analyzed from the very beginning of the church within the Roman empire, and they were followed up to the global presence.

Robert William Frederick Harrison was born on 17 February 1858 at 11 St James’s Square, the house of the London Library of which his father, Robert Harrison, was librarian from 1857 to 1893. After the usual preparatory education he was sent to Westminster School in January 1871 where he remained until December 1873. There he made many friendships, some of which lasted the whole of his life and several of his school friends later rose to distinction in the Church and the Law. On leaving Westminster his father sent him to Germany to study foreign languages and he was placed under the care of an old pastor who received several English boys and who lived in a remote village in the valley of the Lahn, not far from the small country town of Wetzlar. Here he acquired a good command of the German language and, young as he was, an understanding of German character which stood him in good stead in after years when he had to deal with many foreigners.

Parish Registers

This article sets out the incidence of clandestine marriage in Restoration London. Analysis of parish registers of large suburban parishes suggests that such private unions peaked twice in the capital's history, immediately after the Restoration and again in the first half of the eighteenth century. Understanding the phenomenon is important since the increase in private weddings on the scale encountered was unique to London. Historians have failed to explain the growth in such unions satisfactorily. The practice is unlikely to be explained by the growth of religious dissent, by a desire to save money or to circumvent parish or parental control over choice of spouse. The custom's popularity can be explained more convincingly by reference to wealthier Londoners′ traditional predilection for private weddings, which was sanctioned by the church, and to emulation of the habit by those lower in the social scale. Adoption of the practice was further facilitated by increasing levels of disposable income and by the commercialization of the wedding ceremony after the Restoration.

AbstractIn the century following the Council of Trent, ecclesiastical authorities in Naples embarked on a campaign, the largest of its kind in Italy, to convert the city's Muslim slaves to Christianity. For the Church, the conversions were not only important for the conquest of individual believers, but symbolic occasions that demonstrated on a small scale important themes of Christian ethics and anti-Islamic polemic. At the same time, the number and frequency of the conversions forced secular authorities to confront the problem of the civil status of newly baptized slaves. During the seventeenth century, one of the highest tribunals of the state heard a series of cases that pitted baptized slaves who demanded their freedom against slave owners who saw their religious identity as unimportant.

Nazism in Pius XI's Encyclical Mit brennender Sorge The article presents Nazism in Pius XI’s encyclical Mit brennender Sorge. The genesis and context of this papal document, which was written in the German language and directed to the German nation, are presented, as well as reactions from the German state it evoked. This encyclical constitutes a synthesis of numerous statements by the Church in its struggle against the anti-Christian ideology and practice. In it we find references to the breaches in the concordatbetween Germany and the Holy See, and falsifications of Church teachings and language undermining the moral order, hope and love, as well as natural law. It is addressed to young people, the clergy and the laity. In it we find attempts to uncover the Nazi bestiality in the time when Hitler was admired and praised by many contemporary politicians. It does express hope that the German nation will return to the true faith and mission prepared for it by God
