Le lettere pubblicate sono state raccolte in ventuno capitoli pensati seguendo un ideale corso dello svolgimento del conflitto fin dai momen- ti iniziali del settembre 1939. Tale suddivisione è parsa opportuna allo scopo di evitare un confuso mescolamento che non avrebbe reso giusti- zia all’intensità degli scritti e al valore storico che da essi scaturisce. All’interno di ogni capitolo le lettere, che si susseguono secondo un ordine cronologico, sono state trascritte fedelmente, nel totale rispetto degli usi linguistici, stilistici, grafici e grammaticali, anche se talvolta pa- lesemente errati, non consueti o peregrini (ad esempio raddoppiamenti delle consonanti, utilizzo dell’apostrofo, delle maiuscole, degli accenti); l’unico intervento attuato, laddove strettamente necessario, è segnalato da indicazioni poste tra parentesi quadre. Per lo stesso motivo si sono la- sciate abbreviazioni e sigle di uso frequente, quali ad esempio AOI (Afri- ca orientale italiana), btg.

    866-241-2762 USA toll-free Fall 2012 CATALOG 160 A Brief History of Catholic Books Dear Friends of PCP, Twenty years ago it was said that 98% of the world’s books were out of print. In the last two decades – with the development of books-on- demand technology, and with the equivalent of whole libraries being posted on the Internet – many books that were once difficult to find can now be located very easily. While we consider the significance of such technological developments, our Catholic Faith prompts us to remember that when God became man, not even the printing press existed. Our Lord Himself never wrote a book, but instead He left it to His Church to give us the various books of the New Testament. There was a reason why Our Lord did not write, and that reason was explained in detail by St. Thomas Aquinas in the thirteenth century. As shown in our “ebook” The Thirteenth: Greatest of Centuries, St. Thomas, although he lived before the development of modern technology, was nevertheless a part of that age which laid the foundations for modern scientific and technological developments. St. Thomas explained that Our Lord Himself, because He was the greatest of all teachers, used the spoken rather than the written word Continued on Page 5 Preserving Christian Publications Offers A Unique List of Catholic Books Used and Out-of-print Titles: 6,226 Pages 4-31 (692 Titles) Website (5,532 titles) New Books- Books in Print 4 2 Page 2-3 Electronic Books - eBooks: 7 Page 17 CONTENT GUIDE ANTIQUARIAN BOOKS ...................................................................30

This essay also suggests that Cabrini’s story can inspire a new generation of historians to integrate the approaches of several previous generations, by adopting a more expansive vision of the institutional Church that also includes the ordi- nary people who had little or no direct engagement with its structures. Keywords: Frances Cabrini, saints, American Catholicism, canon- ization, women, missionary, Holy See ecember 22, 2017, marked the centenary of the death of Frances DCabrini, a native of northern Italy, founder of the Missionary Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus (M.S.C.), and the first U.S.

Le stesse case di Roma vivono ore tragiche e la situazione si fa sempre più penosa anche per le altre ispettorie» (Rettor Maggiore, Don Pietro Ricaldone ai Salesiani, 24 febbraio 1944) «Sappiamo per esperienza che i Salesiani sono assai pronti a fare il bene a costo anche di gravi sacrifici, ma anche sono piuttosto ritrosi, e alle volte, del tutto refrattari, a stendere la relazione di ciò che fanno», scriveva a guerra finita, il 22 ottobre 1945, il vicario del rettor maggiore dei Salesiani, don Pietro Berruti. A 50 anni di distanza, in risposta agli interrogativi storiografici più re- centi, l’Istituto Storico Salesiano ha reso di pubblica ragione l’opera umani- taria dei Salesiani di Roma e di Frascati durante i nove mesi dell’occupazione tedesca di Roma e dintorni (1943-1944).
