The Reading and Preaching of the Scriptures in the Worship of the Christian Church, Volume 5
The Reading and Preaching of the Scriptures in the Worship of the Christian Church is a multivolume study by Hughes Oliphant Old that canvasses the history of preaching from the words of Moses at Mount Sinai through modern times. In Volume 1, The Biblical Period, Old begins his survey by discussing the roots of the Christian ministry of the Word in the worship of Israel. He then examines the preaching of Christ and the Apostles. Finally, Old looks at the development and practice of Christian preaching in the second and third centuries, concluding with the ministry of Origen.
Amandus Ivanschiz
The ensembles associated with monastery and parish churches were a very important element of musical life in Central Europe around the mid-eighteenth century. Yet the music created by early Classical composers, which constituted the core of their repertoire, remains poorly explored. Fr. Amandus Ivanschiz OSPPE (1727–1758) was one of such musicians, active in monasteries in Ranna, Wiener Neustadt, Rome, and Graz. Recent findings reveal that he died in 1758 at the young age of 31, which is much earlier than previously thought. Consequently, the dating of his compositions and their position in the context of the transformation of musical language in the middle of the eighteenth century needs to be revisited. This volume is the first to provide a critical evaluation of the attribution of works ascribed to Ivanschiz, which brought to light the true scope and reception of his oeuvre. The fact that there are nearly 300 copies of his works preserved in various archives across eleven European countries indicates that his music was readily performed and disseminated, and places Ivanschiz among the most popular monk-composers of his epoch.

Der lange Weg zum Erzbistum Wien
Nach längeren Bemühungen wurde das Zwergbistum Wien 1722/23 vom Papst zum Erzbistum erhoben. Fünfzehn Beiträge untersuchen Voraussetzungen und Auswirkungen dieser Rangerhöhung, nehmen dabei Fragen des Kirchenrechts, des Zeremoniells und des Verhältnisses zum Kaiserhof und den Betroffenen, dem Erzbistum Salzburg und dem Bistum Passau, in den Blick. Das kulturelle Ambiente kommt in Forschungen zur Bau- und Ausstattungsgeschichte der Bischofsresidenz und des Stephansdoms, zu Predigten, der Festmesse, den Grablegen der Oberhirten und zur quellenkundlichen Basis im Diözesanarchiv mit den Erhebungsurkunden zum Tragen, bevor Bemühungen der Selbstbehauptung der Wiener Kirche gegenüber Protestantismus, Säkularisierung und Glaubensverlust in jüngerer Zeit angesprochen werden.
