La periode du pontificat de Pie X (Giuseppe Sarto, 4 aOut 1903 - 20 aOut 1914) est un tournant tres important dans Ies rapports entre Ia Congregation "de Propaganda Fide" et Ie Canada. En 1908, Ies dioceses du pays cessent d'etre soumis la juridiction de la Congregation, regime qui datait depuis sa fondation en 1622 et qui s'est poursuivi pendant toutes les phases de l'histoire canadienne. Avec la Const itut ion Aposto Iique _~_~.pjgD.J...L...Consi Iiq_ (29 j u in 1908), Pie X change Ies competences des Congregations romaines, ce qui aura des consequences importantes sur la juridiction ecciesiastique du Vatican dans les differentes parties du monde. Le Canada - avec l'Angleterre, l'Ecosse, l'Irlande, Ie Pays-Bas, Ie Luxembourg et les Etats-Unis - est soustrait a Ia Propagande c'est-a-dire qu'il n'est plus considere par Ia Curie romaine comme "territoire de mission", soumis au I'Eg lise. A compter de ce moment-la, ces pays, consideres desormais comme evangelises, sont administres non pas par la Propagande mais par Iesdiverses congregations romaines, chacune dans son propre domaine d'intervention. En ce qui a trait a Ia docu~entatio~ canadienne disponible dans les Archives de la Propagande, cela signifie que, apres 1908, Ie materiel est sensiblement reduit. Apres cette date, Ia possibilite de trouver la conclusion de quelques affaires courantes existe toujours; mais on peut affirmer que pour l'historien du Canada ces archives n'ont plus Ia meme importance. En effet, la juridiction de la Propagande est / limitee, comme elle l'est encore aUjourd'hui, a quelques II 1 vicariats apostoliques • II reste peu de choses dans les archives concernant Ie Canada. Exception faite de la correspondance mineure et/ou occasionnelle, nous n'y trouvons que la documentation d~coulant des rapports personnels de la Congr~gation avec les missionnaires. Les anciens ~l~ves du Coll~ge Urbain, Ie s~minaire relevant de la Propagande pour la formation et l'~ducation du clerg~ missionnaire, sont oblig~s par leur serment perp~tuel ~crire au cardinal pr~fet tous les deux ans pour faire un rapport sur leur ~tat. Cette correspondence reste la plus abondante et int~ressante pour l'histoire du Canada o~ plusieurs de ces missionnaires ont oeuvr~. 2. Puisque cet inventaire reproduit la structure de classement des documents d'archives, i 1 faut bri~vement decrire ce classement. Jusqu'en 1892 inclusivement, les s~ries les plus importantes des archives suivaient l'organisation bureaucratique du travail de la congr~gation. Les d~cisions de la Congr~gation se trouvaient dans 1a s~rie des ~~i~ a qui renfermait la documentation a partir de laquelle 1es d~cisions de la Congr~gation furent prises. g~ographiquement, contenait toute la correspondance ordinaire ou mineure. Enfin, la s~rie ~~teI~ comprenait la correspondance au d~part du pr~fet ou du secr~taire de la Congr~ga t ion. ;e 1 Mais avec des pouvoirs plus restreints qu'auparavant. Par exemple, la Propagande propose la _!~L~~pour l'election du vicaire mais n'a pas de competence sur la definition des frontieres des vicariats. e Se referer aux inventaires de Luca Codignola, G~ide_-9~5 document2 rel~j_U_!?_~_l~_meri~Q.~ No.r..Q....f.r..~Ds:_~._L~~..!"'t...i!n9..1a ise d_ans ~?..?_~rchi Y-~.L(;L~ l~_ SaCree_~Jl.J;lregation de. la Pr...Q.Qa.Q..~ndea Rome, 1622-:17?~, Ottawa, Archives Nationales du Canada, 1990; J~.. , _~A~~ndar of documents relatjng 1Q..._ Can~9~i n__...!b e Ar chi v_~.? .Q..f.__j; h~..._.__?.?._~re9__~9..D.9.r..~-,,~Jj0'Q..__ ~ciU.l:QQa9.~D_Q..?

A part la tout Ie materiel est recueilli dans une Quant aux B~l~, il n'y a pas de nouveautes. II s'agit de volumes recueillant annuellement les rapports et les pieces a l'appui dans les causes discutees dans les congregations generales de la Propagande pendant une annee particuliere. La serie est imprimee sauf la page ou l'on reproduit la decision prise par la Congregation et la ratification de la meme dans l'g~i~n~E du Pape. Chaque cause forme un dossier avec un titre communiquant Ie sujet3. Nous avons depouille les 13 volumes des annees 1904-1914 (la documentation relative a 1904 et 1905 est partagee en deux tomes par chaque annee). structuree chronologiquement et par sUjets. Normalement la documentation est divisee par annee, mais on y retrouve aussi des documents anterieures lorsque la question est restee pendante. Pour chaque annee, les sUjets sont repartis en rub(_~c~~ thematiques et geographiques. Les LY~L!~b.~thematiques, numerotees de 1 a 62, rassemblent les documents touch ant a des sUjets bien definis de la juridiction ecclesiastique et de la bureaucratie de la Congregation.

  • Il Processo Al P. Semeria Nella Documentazione Inedita Dell'ex
    ANTONIO M. GENTILI IL PROCESSO AL P. SEMERIA NELLA DOCUMENTAZIONE INEDITA DELL’EX SANT’OFFICIO (1909-1919) «Questa descrizione di quello che la filosofia oggi potrebbe e do- vrebbe essere, questo sogno di una filosofia, per finezza d’analisi psicolo- gica, copia di erudizione storica, notizia esatta di risultati scientifici, pal- pito di morale coscienza, viva… è, me ne accorgo, una cattiva presenta- zione di questo libro, del quale suona, più che altro, anticipata condan- na»1. Con simile intento, ma anche con timoroso presentimento, Giovan- ni Semeria si accingeva a svolgere il corso inaugurale del nuovo secolo (1900-1901) alla Scuola Superiore di Religione da lui diretta in Genova, ponendosi «alla ricerca di Dio: la meta radiosa di queste nostre serali escursioni»2. Ripetuta è l’affermazione che la Scuola, istituita nel 1897, non inten- deva solo «illuminare meglio chi già crede», ma rivolgersi anche a coloro che «non avessero per sorte avuta mai o avessero perduta la fede cristiana; quelli che, nell’ambito stesso di cristiane convinzioni, dissentissero da noi cattolici. Sotto questo profilo — concludeva — il mio diventa un corso apologetico»3, che sarebbe terminato con un appello pressante: «Bisogna, per potersi dir uomini interi, diventare cristiani»4. Preciserà in seguito che «coloro ai quali queste nostre discussioni di preferenza si rivolgono» sono costituiti da quanti «in tutto o in parte dissentono religiosamente da noi»5. Per cui riconoscerà di trovarsi «piuttosto a difendere i diritti della religio- ne in genere, che non quelli del cristianesimo o del cattolicismo in specie», ———— 1 G.

He sought, through 1 The author acknowledges the support of the Social Science and Humani- ties Research Council for the research reported here. A special thanks is offered to Professors Roberto Perin, York University, and Matteo Sanfilippo, University of Viterbo, Italy, as well as the anonymous reviewers for their assistance in strengthening the paper. 2 Falconio arrived in Ottawa on 2 August 1899 and left for a posting in Washington in 1902. Falconio was a religious priest – a member of the Franciscan community. An Italian by birth, Falconio spent most of his religious life in North America. He was ordained to the priesthood in Buffalo, New York. He served as a parish priest, educator, and ecclesiastic administrator in the United States and Newfoundland, spending time as President of St. Bonave- nture’s College, Allegheny, NY, and working in the Diocese of Harbour Grace with Bishop Enrico Carfaganni. As Apostolic Delegate, Falconio was the Vatican’s Representative to Canada. He was both an observer of and a participant in the relations between Church and State. During Falconio’s three year tenure, his observations focused on the Manitoba Schools Question, immigration issues focusing on serving the needs of Ukrainian Catholics, religious and cultural issues centering on the Acadians, French-English tensions in Ottawa where he resided, and internal communication between the rank and file clerics and the episcopate.

  • Archbishop John J. Williams
    Record Group I.06.01 John Joseph Williams Papers, 1852-1907 Introduction & Index Archives, Archdiocese of Boston Introduction Biographical Sketch Scope and Content Content List (A-Z) Subject Index Introduction The John Joseph Williams papers held by the Archives of the Archdiocese of Boston span the years 1852-1907. The collection consists of original letters and documents from the year that Williams was assigned to what was to become St. Joseph’s parish in the West End of Boston until his death 55 years later. The papers number approximately 815 items and are contained in 282 folders arranged alphabetically by correspondent in five manuscript boxes. It is probable that the Williams papers were first put into some kind of order in the Archives in the 1930s when Fathers Robert h. Lord, John E. Sexton, and Edward T. Harrington were researching and writing their History of the Archdiocese of Boston, 1604-1943. At this time the original manuscripts held by the Archdiocese were placed individually in folders and arranged chronologically in file cabinets. One cabinet contained original material and another held typescripts, photostats, and other copies of documents held by other Archives that were gathered as part of the research effort. The outside of each folder noted the author and the recipient of the letter. In addition, several letters were sound in another section of the Archives. It is apparent that these letters were placed in the Archives after Lord, Sexton, and Harrington had completed their initial arrangement of manuscripts relating to the history of the Archdiocese of Boston. In preparing this collection of the original Williams material, a calendar was produced.

  • Missionary Sisters of Saint Charles Borromeo - Scalabrinians
    In this first volume of the history of the Missionary Sisters of Saint Charles – Scalabrinians that covers the period of 1895 – 1934, Sister Lice Maria Signor dedicates herself patiently in giving an attractive and documented form, the historical path of the MSCS Congregation and does it under diverse aspects: social, economic, political, cultural, ecclesial and religious. It is evidenced her determination in looking at the elements to construct our history and to show how the existence of the MSCS Sisters Congregation, is a historic/missionary path of evangelic service to the migrants, that become the incarnation of the words of Jesus Christ: “I was a stranger and you welcomed me” (Mt. 25,35). “Seeds emigrate on the wings of the wind, plants emigrate from continent to continent, carried by the water currents, birds and animals emigrate, but more than all, man emigrates, now in a collective form, now in an isolated form but always an instrument of that Providence that presides over the destiny of humans and guides them, also by catastrophes, for the final goal, that of perfectioning man over the land and the glory of God in the heavens” (Scalabrini).

  • La Santa Sede
    La Santa Sede BOLLA PROVIDENTISSIMA MATER IL VESCOVO BENEDETTO, SERVO DEI SERVI DI DIO. A PERPETUA MEMORIA Ai Venerabili Fratelli e diletti Figli Patriarchi, Primati, Arcivescovi, Vescovi e agli altri Ordinari, e inoltre ai Dottori e agli Allievi delle Università Cattoliche e dei Seminari. La Chiesa, Madre sapientissima, voluta da Cristo, suo Fondatore, in modo tale che possedesse tutti i caratteri della società perfetta, fin dai suoi primordi, quando secondo il compito assegnatole dal Signore cominciò ad educare ed a governare tutte le genti, si diede a regolare e a difendere con leggi certe la condotta delle persone consacrate e del popolo cristiano. Col passare del tempo, ed in ispecie quando ebbe ottenuto la propria libertà d’azione e, crescendo di giorno in giorno, ella si diffuse ovunque, non desistette mai dall’estendere e dall’esercitare il proprio naturale diritto di portare le leggi mediante una molteplice quantità di decreti promulgati secondo i tempi e le circostanze dai Pontefici Romani e dai Sinodi Ecumenici. Per mezzo di tali leggi e prescrizioni ella non solo provvide saggiamente al governo del clero e del popolo cristiano, ma contribuì nello stesso tempo e in modo mirabile al progresso civile e culturale della società, come la storia dimostra. Infatti la Chiesa non si limità a far abrogare le norme dei popoli barbari e a civilizzare i loro primitivi costumi, ma con l’aiuto della luce divina corresse, e improntò della perfezione cristiana lo stesso diritto Romano insigne monumento di antica sapienza che fu giustamente definito « la ragione scritta »: cosicché ella, avendo disciplinato su basi di equità e ingentilito, ove necessario, i costumi pubblici e privati, fornì ampia materia per la formazione delle leggi tanto nel medio evo quanto in epoche più recenti.

It is based on three main sources: 1) the encyclical Humani generis redemptionem, published in 1917; the unedited drafts, which have recently been made available from the Vatican Secret Archives; 2) Pope Benedict XV’s speeches to the Lenten preachers in Rome (1914-1922); 3) Codex Iuris Canonici’s canons 1327-1351 (the Codex was also published in 1917). The analysis shows that the main concerns un- derlying Pope Benedict XV’s teaching on preaching contained nationalism and fought secularization.

  • Tor. Greater Pwer and More Efficiency the Preacher's
    TOR. GREATER PWER AND MORE EFFICIENCY Vol. V November, 1932 No. 11 THE PREACHER©S MESSAGE TO A LOST WORLD AN EDITOBIAl HAT is sin? It must be something exceedingly grave, or it would not have exacted the sacrifice God made to save man from the death penalty. This indicates its seriousness. The New Testament defines sin thus: "Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law." 1 John 3:4. Paul declares: "Until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law." "For where no law is, there is no transgression." Rom. 5:13; 4:15. Many have defined sin; but it ever is "the transgression of the law." It has been set forth as "revolt against God and His will;" a "forensic failure" on the part of man; "transgression of the boundary line of right and wrong." In its workings in the human heart, sin begets selfishness, rebellion, hatred of right eousness, the choosing of that which God©s law prohibits. It engenders hatred toward God because of His goodness, and contempt for those who choose to obey His law. Doctor Guthrie thus graphically depicts sin: "Look not at sin. Pluck off that painted mask, and turn upon her face the lamp of God©s word. We start it reveals a death©s head. I stay not to quote texts descriptive of sin. It is a debt, a burden, a thief, a sickness, a leprosy, a plague, a poison, a serpent, a sting; everything that man hates it is; a load of curses and calamities, beneath whose crushing, most intolerable pressure, the whole creation groaneth.

IN1RODUCTION When visitors come to the Redemptorist residence in Wit­ tern, a small town in the Limburg Province of the Netherlands, they cannot help but notice the pride taken in the memory of the Redemptorist Cardinal Willem van Rossum. Looming large in the church is van Rossum's memorial statue, in exquisite white Carrara marble. They are told that the statue was carved in 1939 by the official sculptor of the Vatican, Enrico Quattrini, and that the cardinal's remains lie just behind the memorial, inside a spe­ cial vault within the church wall.
