Cronistoria degli avvenimenti: 8 settembre 1943 - 4 giugno 1944 FRANCESCO MOTTO L’8 settembre 1943, poche ore prima che il generale Badoglio annunciasse alla radio l’armistizio firmato dall’Italia il 3 settembre con le forze alleate, l’aviazione angloamericana bombardava pesantemente la cittadina di Frascati, mietendo centinaia di vittime fra la popolazione civile. Nei nove mesi dell’occupazione tedesca della città di Roma, soprattutto in concomitanza con lo sbarco alleato di Anzio di fine gennaio 1944, si susseguirono sui castelli romani altri bombardamenti, che costrinsero gli abitanti a una durissima lotta per la sopravvivenza. L’articolo documenta l’attività di assistenza materiale e spirituale offerta dai salesiani delle due comunità di Frascati alla popolazione locale nella terribile emergenza bellica in cui si venne a trovare. 4 Sommari - Summaries The contribution of the Salesians of Frascati to the assistance of the victims of the bombing. Chronicle of the events from 8 September 1943 to 4 June 1944. 2015 - Digital Collections - Biblioteca Don Bosco - Roma - http://digital.biblioteca.unisal.it FRANCESCO MOTTO On 8 September 1943, a few hours before General Badoglio announced on the radio the armistice signed by the Italians with the Allied Forces on 3 September, Anglo-American aircraft heavily bombed the town of Frascati, causing hundreds of casualties among the civilian population. In the nine months of the German occupa- tion of Rome, especially in conjunction with the allied landing at Anzio at the end of January 1944 other bombardments were directed against the Roman castles, and the inhabitants endured a severe struggle for survival. The article documents the activi- ties of material and spiritual assistance offered by the Salesians of Frascati to the local population in the terrible war situation in which they had become involved. Le richieste di fondazioni a don Bosco dal Mezzogiorno d’Italia (1879-1888) FRANCESCO CASELLA Il viaggio di don Bosco a Napoli (1880), una più ampia diffusione del Bollettino Salesiano e la migliore conoscenza di ciò che la congregazione salesiana realizzava in Italia, in Europa e in America Latina indussero vescovi, sacerdoti e laici a richie- dere a don Bosco di fondare delle opere salesiane anche nell’Italia meridionale. Nella prima parte lo studio evidenzia, tra le tante problematiche che caratterizzarono l’Italia e in particolare il Mezzogiorno negli ultimi due decenni dell’Ottocento, alcune que- stioni fondamentali: il contesto storico-sociale con il divario sempre più accentuato tra Nord e Sud del paese, l’emigrazione, la laicizzazione della scuola, la formazione del clero ed il problema dei seminari, l’analfabetismo molto accentuato nelle regioni meridionali, la risonanza di queste tematiche nelle richieste di fondazioni proposte a don Bosco. Nella seconda parte si propongono i documenti delle 29 richieste che dal Mezzogiorno continentale furono fatte a don Bosco e che coinvolsero anche don Rua, per cui saranno seguite nel loro sviluppo, comunque non oltre gli inizi del Novecento. Le ulteriori eventuali fasi saranno soltanto accennate con i dovuti rimandi archivi- stici. Si sottolinea la circostanza che ben 14 di tali richieste furono per i seminari, 10 per la scuola e una per l’opera dei sordomuti. Don Bosco, tuttavia, poté realizzare solo la precaria esperienza di Brindisi. Ne emerge uno spaccato storico con una crescente domanda formativa, scolastica, educativa e pastorale che si indirizzava verso una nuova congregazione, perché era giu- dicata più idonea a rispondere alle esigenze dei tempi e in particolare ai bisogni dei giovani. A questa domanda educativa don Rua diede, poi, una risposta più particolare, mentre riceveva a sua volta, come si vedrà in altro studio, numerose richieste di fonda- zioni di opere salesiane, che continuarono a pervenire dall’Italia meridionale. Sommari - Summaries 5 Requests to Don Bosco for foundations in Southern Italy (1879-1888) 2015 - Digital Collections - Biblioteca Don BoscoFRANCESCO - Roma C- ASELLAhttp://digital.biblioteca.unisal.it The journey of Don Bosco to Naples (1880), a more extensive dissemination of the Salesian Bulletin and a better knowledge of what the Salesian Congregation was achieving in Italy, Europe and Latin America, led bishops, priests and laity to request Don Bosco to set up salesian foundations also in Southern Italy. The first part of the study makes it clear that among the many problems which characterised Italy (and in particular the southern part of the peninsula) in the last two decades of the nineteenth century, there were some fundamental questions: the historical and social context with the ever-growing division between the north and south of the country, emigra- tion, the laicization of the school, the formation of the clergy and the problem of the seminaries, the high rate of illiteracy in the south – all these were reflected in the re- quests for foundations made to Don Bosco The second part documents the 29 re- quests made to Don Bosco from southern parts; they involved also Don Rua and so are followed up but not beyond the turn of the century. Further developments will be merely mentioned and references given to the archives. 14 of these requests were for seminaries, 10 for schools, and one for a work for deaf mutes. However Don Bosco was not able to realize more than the precarious experience of Brindisi. What emerges is a historical cross-section with a growing formative, scholastic, educative and pastoral demand addressed to a new Congregation which was consid- ered more suitable for responding to the requirements of the times and in particular to the needs of the young. To this educative demand Don Rua later gave a more partic- ular response, while receiving at the same time (as will be seen in a separate study) numerous requests for salesian foundations which continued to come in from southern Italy.

  • The Solicitude of the Church for Priestly Vocations, Formation and Education
    THE SOLICITUDE OF THE CHURCH FOR PRIESTLY VOCATIONS, FORMATION AND EDUCATION Frands Bonnid A rediscovered ecc1esiology of the Church as the People of God has given the Church today a new pastoral way to help the members of the community to accept the call of God to serve the Christian community. In the Synod Bishops of 1990 about The Formation ofpriests in the circumstances of today and in the Apostolic Exhortation Pastores dabo vobis (25 March 1992) of John Paul II, the Church proposed the evangelisation of the environment where Christians live as the basis of the pastoral work for vocations. o OVER THE CENTURIES 0.1 The institution of Seminaries The Council of Trent established the Seminaries on the fifteenth day of July 1563 when canon 18 of the decree De Reformatione was approved.' The purpose of establishing the seminaries was to provide the right environment wherein the candidates to the priesthood could be provided with the formation that made them true pastors of the Christian community.z After the Council of Trent, the Church wanted to implement the prescriptions of the Council about the establishment of the seminaries. The seminaries established by Cardinal Carlo Borromeo served as models to all seminaries that were founded later on in the dioceses of the Church in Europe. Borromeo wrote the Institutiones ad universum regimen pertinentes (1582)3 which later on were codified in Canon Law (1917). He also appointed the superiors of the Seminary Institution naming them Rector, confessor and bursar.4 This seminary model was referred to and called the Caroline Seminary.

  • Manżelství – Cesta Ke Svatosti
    Vítám tuto knihu, která v řadě medailonů ukazuje sku- tečné rodiny z nedávné doby, které v různých prostředích 40 a různých situacích dovedly jít po svaté cestě. Žádný z těch manželských párů není možné kopírovat. Každý z nich však může inspirovat. A.M.I.M.S. M. A.M.I.M.S. M. Mons. Jan Graubner Původně jsem hledala příklady pro laiky žijící v manželství, pro duchovní obnovy a později začal vycházet seriál Man- želství – cesta ke svatosti v časopise Rodinný život. Reakce mne přesvědčily, že je dobré dát lidem příklady manželů elé 20. století z moderní doby. V knize jsou zahrnuty jak manželské páry, ž tak jednotliví manželé, manželky – kandidáti svatosti. Ča- sové období je rok úmrtí 1950 a dále. Občas jsem udělala vatí man výjimku. Za každým medailonem jsou otázky či podněty S • k možnému přemýšlení, rozjímání, ideálně i společnému. Možná je nebudete potřebovat a položíte si jiné. V kaž- dém případě v životech svatých nejde jen o informace jako o fakta, ale mělo by jít o „in-formace“, o to, co do nás vstoupí a formuje nás.

  • Art. 20. in Communion with Mary and Our Saints §1. Salesian
    Art. 20. In Communion with Mary and Our Saints §1. Salesian Cooperators, like Don Bosco, nurture a filial love for Mary Help of Christians, the Mother of the Church and of humanity.1 She cooperated in the salvific mission of the Savior and continues to do so also today, as Mother and Helper of the People of God. She is the special guide of the Salesian Family. Don Bosco entrusted the Salesian Cooperators to Her so that they might receive protection and inspiration in their mission. §2. They turn with particular affection to St. Joseph, Patron of the Universal Church. They have trustful recourse to the intercession of St. John Bosco, “Father and Teacher”2 of the young and of all the Salesian Family. §3. Among the models of apostolic life, they venerate, with predilection, St. Francis de Sales, St. Mary Domenica Mazzarello, Alexandrina da Costa, Mamma Margaret, and all the other Saints, Blesseds, and Venerables of the Salesian Family. Knowledge of their lives is a font of inspiration and prayer. CONSIDERATIONS Core themes 1. Filial Love for Mary, Mother of the Church and of Humanity 2. The Saints and Blesseds: Heavenly Intercessors for the Salesian Family Keys to Understanding A. In Don Bosco’s life, Mary held a place of special privilege. The Salesian Cooperator nurtures a filial and strong devotion to Mary, in imitation of our Founder’s devotion to Mary Immaculate, the Perfect Servant of God and the model for every Christian, and to Mary, the Mother of the Church and the Help of Christians, as his or her special guide and the guide of the entire Salesian Family.

  • Caterina Zecchini (1877-1948)
    CATERINA ZECCHINI (1877-1948) other Caterina Zecchini was born in Venice, Italy on May 24, 1877, Mand died there on October 17, 1948. We have scant information about her youth: baptized on June 3, 1978, in the church of St. Giacomo dell’Orio, she was confirmed at the church of Saints Geremia and Lucia on May 25, 1885. Known to be very sensitive, yet she possessed an exuberant, lively, and witty character. When she was ten years old, after completing elementary school, Caterina began working at home helping her father, a wine merchant, with his accounting. She developed an ever growing concern for the poor, especially for children of her parish whom she met on the streets and whom she often brought to her home to give them food and clothing. This charity that grew in her heart was destined, through the grace of God, to grow in time until she could no longer limit herself to helping the occasional poor person.
