An edition, translation and analysis of three short texts by Lanfranc’s student Ralph of Battle (1040-1124), an intimate of Saint Anselm, dedicated to theological problems concerning human free will: Quare deus hominem fecit, De paradiso et inferno, and Sententia beati Ieronimi de libero arbitrio. In them, Ralph – probably following Saint Augustin – raises three main questions: Why did God create human beings knowing that they would sin? Why did he not create human beings without the ability to sin? And, given divine foreknowledge and predestination, can human beings really be held responsible for their sins? His answers to these queries are compared to those put forward by Saint Anselm, Gilbert Crispin and authors associated with the school of Laon. Interestingly, one of the two passages attributed to Jerome which Ralph uses to spell out the value of our ability to sin is actually from Pelagius (Pseudo-Jerome). This, however, is not to say that Ralph is a Pelagian.
An edition, translation and analysis of Ralph of Battle’s theological treatise De creatore et creatura et quid inter se differunt creaturae. Ralph (1040–1124) was a student of Lanfranc at Le Bec and subsequently at Caen. An intimate of Saint Anselm and a prolific writer himself, he served as chaplain to Lanfranc, prior of Caen and Rochester, and abbot of Battle. In this text, Ralph develops a theology of creation and a theological anthropology, discussing topics such as the ontological difference between creator and creature; the hierarchy of creatures; the human creature as a composite of body and soul; our relationship to non-rational creatures, to the angels and to the creator; our knowledge of God and the incomprehensibility of the divine nature.

Although preceding the great poverty movements which were to challenge the Western Church in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, the relinquishment of private property and the care of the poor are notable themes in Anselm of Canterbury’s monastic thought, apart from being a major preoccupation of his life. This paper intends to provide an overview and analysis of Anselm’s views on private property and the religious life, on wealth, poverty and the care of the poor. The texts considered include his letters, prayers and theoretical works, the Benedictine Rule, Lanfranc’s Decreta and the Consuetudines Beccenses, as well as the writings of Eadmer and Alexander recording Anselm’s deeds and words
Among the Latin Church Fathers, there was a widespread understanding of divine eternity as timelessness, while time as we know it was regarded to be relative to the existence of material or at any rate mutable entities, to, that is, the existence of creatures. Now if we suppose that God has also created (or might have created) purely spiritual beings or an initially unformed matter, one may wonder how these relate to time – to our time – as well as to the timeless eternity of their creator. This is an edition, translation and extended commentary of two short texts by Ralph of Battle, an intimate of Saint Anselm, concerning this very problem: a “sentence” from Jerome, and a treatise setting out a theological position which according to Ralph some have taken in the wake of Jerome’s testimony. Ralph’s rendering of the position in question is contextualized by looking at his other works and comparing Ralph’s and Jerome’s lines of reasoning to that of Augustine, who considers the issue in various works without, however, feeling able to settle the matter conclusively.
Die Pandemie bestimmt die Rahmenbedingungen. Abstandsregeln, Hygienevorschriften, Einschränkungen bei den Gottesdiensten – Liturgie und Katechese müssen darauf reagieren. Vieles, was bisher war, was bewährt und vertraut ist, muss auf den Prüfstand.
Wie kann Gemeinschaft erlebt und gestaltet werden? Welche Erfahrungsräume lassen sich anbieten? Welche Materialien sind wirklich hilfreich? Und wo ist der Einsatz digitaler Hilfsmittel möglich und sinnvoll?
Fragen wie diese resultieren aus den Erfahrungen des Corona-Lock-downs im Frühjahr 2020, als auch Katechesen und Erstkommunionfeiern betroffen waren. Für die Erstkommunion 2021 können sie genutzt und weitergedacht werden.
Diese Arbeitshilfe bietet dazu Vorschläge und Ideen. Sie sollen bewährte Erstkommunionwege unter Pandemiebedingungen ergänzen.
Die einzelnen Einheiten sind so konzipiert, dass sie auch als eigenständiger Erstkommunionweg genutzt werden können.
Das 15. Arbeitsforum für Religionspädagogik, das die Pädagogische Stiftung Cassianeum in Zusammenarbeit mit der Konferenz der Leiter der Schulabteilungen der deutschen Diözesen (KOLEISCHA) und der Arbeitsgemeinschaft Katholische Religionspädagogik und Katechetik (AKRK) und dem Deutschen Katecheten-Verein (dkv) vom 04. bis 06. März 2020 in Rain am Lech durchführen konnte, widmete sich der Frage nach der Bedeutung der Digitalisierung für den Religionsunterricht. Diese um einige Beiträge ergänzte Tagungsdokumentation beschreibt religionspädagogische und -didaktische Überlegungen in einer Phase des Übergangs hin zu mehr Digitalität im Religionsunterricht und bietet dazu drei verschiedene Perspektiven: Er enthält Grundlegungen: grundsätzliche Reflexionen zur Bedeutung der Digitalität für die religiöse Welterschließung im Kontext Schule, fragt nach Möglichkeiten und Herausforderungen für die unterrichtliche Praxis und sichtet Beispiele von Digitalisierung in der Fortbildung.
