Results of Catholic Reformation• By the late 1500s, Rome was a much more pious
city than Luther had seen 70 years earlier.• Catholic piety, charity, and religious art
flourished.• Reforms turned back the Protestant tide, and
some areas returned to Catholicism• But, Europe was now divided into Catholic South
& Protestant North.
Pope Paul IV• Cum nimis absurdum
issued by Pope Paul IV in 1555 placed severe economic & religious restrictions on the Jews in Papal States.
• "Since it is completely senseless and inappropriate to be in a situation where Christian piety allows the Jews (whose guilt - all of their own doing - has condemned them to eternal slavery) access to our society and even to live among us; indeed, they are without gratitude to Christians…”
Cum nimis absurdum• § 3. Moreover, concerning the matter that Jews should be
recognizable everywhere: [to this end] men must wear a hat, women, indeed, some other evident sign, yellow in color, that must not be concealed or covered by any means, and must be tightly affixed [sewn]; and furthermore, they can not be absolved or excused from the obligation to wear the hat or other emblem of this type to any extent whatever and under any pretext whatsoever of their rank or prominence or of their ability to tolerate [this] adversity, either by a chamberlain of the Church, clerics of an Apostolic court, or their superiors, or by legates of the Holy See or their immediate subordinates.
Europeans the taste for Asian luxury goods like pepper, silk, ceramics, and other spices.
• During Mongol control of Asia in the 1200 & 1300s, these goods made it to Europe, but this ended with the establishment of the Ottoman Empire.http://www.emersonkent.com/images/marco_polo_travel.jpg
1400s• Muslim & Italian
merchants controlled most of the trade between Asia & Europe.
• Muslims brought them to the Eastern Mediterranean.
• Italians brought them to Italy.
• From Italy they went to the rest of Europe.
• Each time the goods changed hands, the price increased.
Prester John• From Wikipedia: The legends of Prester John (also
Presbyter John), popular in Europe from the 12th through the 17th centuries, told of a Christian patriarch and king said to rule over a Christian nation lost amidst the Muslims and pagans in the Orient. Written accounts of this kingdom are variegated collections of medieval popular fantasy. Reportedly a descendant of one of the Three Magi, Prester John was said to be a generous ruler and a virtuous man, presiding over a realm full of riches and strange creatures, in which the Patriarch of Saint Thomas resided. His kingdom contained such marvels as the Gates of Alexander and the Fountain of Youth, and even bordered the Earthly Paradise. Among his treasures was a mirror through which every province could be seen, the fabled original from which derived the "speculum literature" of the late Middle Ages and Renaissance, in which the prince's realms were surveyed and his duties laid out.[1]
• At first, Prester John was imagined to be in India; tales of the "Nestorian" Christians' evangelistic success there and of Thomas the Apostle's subcontinental travels as documented in works like the Acts of Thomas probably provided the first seeds of the legend. After the coming of the Mongols to the Western world, accounts placed the king in Central Asia, and eventually Portuguese explorers convinced themselves they had found him in Ethiopia. Prester John's kingdom was the object of a quest, firing the imaginations of generations of adventurers, but remaining out of reach. He was a symbol to European Christians of the Church's universality, transcending culture and geography to encompass all humanity, in a time when ethnic and interreligious tension made such a vision seem distant.
