  • Fifty Four Day Novena
    FIFTY FOUR DAY NOVENA Origin In an apparition of Our Lady of Pompeii, which occurred in 1884 at Naples, in the house of Commander Agrelli, the heavenly Mother deigned to make known the manner in which she desires to be invoked. For thirteen months Fortuna Agrelli, the daughter of the Commander, had endured dreadful sufferings and torturous cramps. The most celebrated physicians had given up. On February 16, 1884, the afflicted girl and her relatives commenced a novena of Rosaries. The Queen of the Holy Rosary favoured her with an apparition on March 3rd. Mary, sitting upon a high throne, surrounded by luminous figures, held the divine Child on her lap, and in her hand a Rosary. The Virgin Mother and the Holy Infant were clad in gold embroidered garments. They were accompanied by Saint Dominic and Saint Catherine of Siena. The throne was profusely decorated with flowers; the beauty of Our Lady was marvellous. Mary looked upon the sufferer with maternal tenderness and the patient saluted her with the words: “Queen of the Holy Rosary, be gracious to me; restore me to health! I have already prayed to thee in a novena O Mary, but have not yet experienced thy aid. I am so anxious to be cured!” “Child”, responded the Blessed Virgin, “thou hast invoked me by various titles and hast always obtained favours from me. Now, since thou hast called me by that title so pleasing to me, ‘Queen of the Holy Rosary’, I can no longer refuse the favour thou dost petition; for this name is most precious and dear to me.

  • Ad Lectores in This First Issue for 2015, the Editorial “Ad Lectores” Makes
    Antonianum XC (2015) 5-6 Ad lectores In this first issue for 2015, the editorial Ad“ lectores” makes room for celebrating the memory of Fr. Gabriele Allegra, the well-known si- nologist, by way of “collegite fragmenta, ne pereant!”. Thereby, too, the- re is commemorated the Antonianum’s conferral on Fr. Allegra of the doctorate honoris causa. It was on the occasion of the inauguration of the academic year 1955-1956 that, at the initiative of the then Rector, Fr. Ferdinando Antonelli, this honour (rather rare in our case) was assi- gned to Fr. Allegra, who was at the time the Prefect of the Hong Kong Biblical Institute, and already famous for his translation of the Bible into the Chinese language. Earlier, in 1931, Fr. Allegra had been a student at the Antonianum, and it was here that he discerned his calling to be a sinologist. “The year is 1928,” Fr. Allegra wrote while a student in Rome “the year of the sixth centenary of the death of Blessed John of Monte Corvi- no, the first Archbishop of Peking and the true founder of the Church in China and of her ecclesiastical hierarchy. The Holy Father, Pius XI, sent a letter to our General; this letter was much spoken of in the College […] to me personally there spoke of it only Fr. Cipriano Silvestri, who told me also of the audience had of the Holy Father […].” To be sure, those were years of great missionary fervour. One of its most intimately persuaded protagonists was the Minister General himself, Fr. Klumper, who had sent to the members of the Order “a beautiful encyclical letter” on the subject (1922).
