Topic: Alvarus Pelagius


In the News (Wed 8 Oct 08)

  
  CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Alvarus Pelagius
Alvarus studied canon law at Bologna, but in 1304 resigned his benefices, and entered the Franciscan Order.
Certain it is that he became penitentiary to Pope John XXII at Avignon, that he enjoyed much favour with this pontiff, and was employed by him to refute the claims of the antipope Pietro Rainalducci of Corbario.
Alvarus has been reproached by St. Antoninus and others with having too far favoured the error of the Fraticelli about poverty, but, as Sbaralea shows, it is not difficult to justify him against this charge.

 Pelagius - Definition, explanation
Pelagius was of the opinion that Augustine's teaching amounted to nothing short of introducing Manicheanism into Christianity.
Pelagius then fled to Jerusalem, but Augustine's followers were soon on his trail; Orosius went to Jerusalem to warn St Jerome against him.
Pelagius succeeded in clearing himself at a diocesan synod in Jerusalem and a provincial one in Diospolis (Lydda), though Augustine said that his being cleared at those councils must have been the result of Pelagius lying about his teachings.

The nuns, explained Pelagius, had gotten so accustomed to the demons' presence that they had stopped fearing them.
Johannes Nider, the famous Dominican theologian (1380–1438), who contributed much to the development of the early modern concept of the maleficent witch, was also responsible for shaping the late medieval and early modern narrative of mass demonic possession.
