Catholic Church and the Counter Reformation
Lectures and Objectives
The Council of Trent (1545-1563) examined how the Catholic Church would
reform for the better.
It played a vital role in revitalizing the
Roman Catholic Church
in many parts of Europe.
The
Catholic Church
formed a
new order called the Jesuits
led by Ignatius Loyola and emphasized education.
The
Catholic Church
responded to the Protestant movement with the
Counter Reformation
.
The baroque art, music, and architecture style was
adopted by the Catholic Church
to bring out the
strong emotions of the Christian faith
.
Council of Trent
They do 2 things, they affirm the Catholic Doctrine, and they reformed Church practices.
With the Catholic Doctrine, they had scripture, tradition, and the pope is authorized by god.
The Catholics did this for 18 years, getting together, trying to fix themselves. (Changing)
Jesuits and Ignatius Loyola
The Catholic Church does a few things, they make the training for priests better, they think it's okay to have an indulgence, not sell them.
The Society of Jesus(Jesuits) was founded by Ignatius of Loyola
The quality of priests went down because they weren't having to go to school
Before becoming a priest, Ignatius was a knight and he believed in Spiritual Warfare. (To be a good Catholic, you must have knowledge)
Ignatius was about Personal Piety, this means you can't ask someone to be a good Catholic if you're not a good one yourself
Baroque and the Counter Reformation
With simplicity, they had to just go back to the roots of the Catholic faith
St. Teresa of Avila, (Baroque art) the angle is stabbing her and she's feeling the pain of god
St. Teresa of Avila is sort of like the female form of Ignatius Loyola, who is a mystic, a theologian, and monastic reformer
The Catholic Church adopted the Baroque style, they wanted people to know they would be blown away by the spirituality of the church. (Counter Reformation goes hand in hand with Baroque)
