A religious order founded by Dominic in 1216 with the approval of Pope Honorius III. Its official name is the "Congregation of Preachers," and, together with the Franciscans, it is also known as a mendicant order. The spirit of the Congregation of Preachers is expressed in the words, "Contemplate and communicate the fruits of contemplation to others." While deepening their contemplation of Christ through communal living, prayer, theological study, and the three vows (obedience, poverty, and chastity), they also traveled throughout Western Europe to preach, and developed a theological enlightenment movement centered on universities in Paris, Bologna, Rome, and other places. The Dominican ideal of spreading the truth of Christ has been lived out by countless Dominicans throughout history, like a prism splitting light into many colors. Thomas Aquinas passed on theology, Eckhart and H. Suso mystical contemplation, Fra Angelico religious beauty, while Saint Catherine of Siena inspired the Pope of Avignon, and Savonarola's eloquence was a precursor to the Protestant Reformation. Dominicanism was introduced to Japan in the early 17th century during the Christian era, and today it is being spread in Sendai, Fukushima, Tokyo, Kyoto, Ehime, Fukuoka, and other cities. There is a school called St. Thomas College (Kyoto City). [Miyamoto Hisao] "The Starry Apostles" edited by J.G.

1216年に教皇ホノリウス3世の認可の下にドミニクスによって創立された修道会。正式会名は「説教者会」であり、フランシスコ会とともに托鉢(たくはつ)修道会ともよばれる。説教者会の精神は、「観想し、観想の果実を他の人々に伝えよ」ということばに表現される。共同生活、祈り、神学研究と三誓願(せいがん)(従順、清貧、貞潔)によってキリストの観想を深めつつ、同時に西欧全土を旅して説教を行い、またパリ、ボローニャ、ローマなどの大学を中心に神学的啓蒙(けいもう)運動を展開してきた。 キリストの真理を伝えようとするこのドミニコ会の理想は、プリズムによって光が多彩に分割されるように無数のドミニコ会士によって歴史のうちに生かされてきた。トマス・アクィナスは神学を、エックハルト、H・スーゾーらは神秘的観想を、フラ・アンジェリコは宗教的美を生き伝え、他方シエナの聖女カタリナはアビニョンの教皇を動かし、サボナローラの弁舌は宗教改革の先駆ともなった。日本には17世紀初頭のキリシタン時代に伝来、今日では仙台、福島、東京、京都、愛媛、福岡などで布教している。学校は聖トマス学院(京都市)がある。 [宮本久雄] 『J・G・バリエス編『星に輝く使徒』(中央出版社・中央新書)』▽『今野國雄著『修道院』(岩波新書)』 [参照項目] |出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
