What
is the Fleur-de-lis?
What does "Sicut lilium inter spinas" mean?
All of us in the Louisville area are familiar with the fleur-de-lis as
it is the symbol for our city.
Did you
know the symbol has Catholic roots?
In order
to advance the restoration of Louisville's Catholic culture, WLCR
decided to let others know that we, as Catholics, have particular
interest in this common symbol.
In the
Middle Ages the symbols of lily and fleur-de-lis (lis is French for
"lily") overlapped considerably in religious art. One historian says
that until about 1300 they were found in depictions of Jesus, but
gradually took on Marian symbolism and were associated with the Song of Solomon's
"As the lily among the thorns" (Sicut lilium inter spinas),
understood as a reference to Mary. Other scripture and religious
literature in which the lily symbolizes purity and chastity also helped
establish the flower as an iconographic attribute of the Virgin.
Images
of Mary holding the flower first appeared in the 11th century on coins
issued by cathedrals dedicated to her, and next on the seals of
cathedral chapters.
The
three petals of the heraldic design reflect a widespread association
with the Holy Trinity, a tradition going back to 14th century France,
added onto the earlier belief that they also represented faith, wisdom
and chivalry.
The new
WLCR t-shirts are now available for all proud to be Louisville
Catholics with a gift of $10 (+$5 postage).
