Jubilee of Deacons N. 160528b Saturday 28.05.2016 Jubilee of deacons Vatican City, 28 May 2016 – This weekend deacons from all over the world celebrate their jubilee, fifty years after the reinstitution of the permanent diaconate by Vatican Council II with the constitution Lumen Gentium. The world meeting of permanent deacons in Rome – which many attended with their families – also offered the opportunity for reflection on the role and ministry of the diaconate, closely linked to works of charity in the life of the Christian community. The jubilee opened yesterday at 4 p.m. with a meeting on the theme "The diaconate, image of mercy for promoting new evangelisation", which took place in various churches so that the participants were able to follow the conference and the debate in their own languages. The Italians gathered in the church of Santa Maria in Vallicella and in the Basilica of Sant'Andrea della Valle, the English speakers in the Basilica of San Giovanni dei Fiorentitni and Santa Maria sopra Minerva (where translations were given in German and Portuguese), and the Spanish in the Basilica of San Marco Evangelista al Campidoglio. The same division in terms of language will be maintained this afternoon during the catechesis "The deacon: called to dispense charity in the Christian community". Today from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. there will be a pilgrimage to the Holy Door of St. Peter's Basilica. Tomorrow the jubilee event will conclude with Mass celebrated by the Holy Father in St. Peter's Square. During the three days deacons will be able to participate in Eucharistic adoration and the Sacrament of Reconciliation in the three jubilee churches (San Salvador in Lauro, Santa Maria in Vallicella (Chiesa Nuova), and San Giovanni Battista dei Fiorentini) and they are invited to make personal pilgrimages to the churches dedicated to St. Lawrence the martyr, the first deacon (San Lorenzo in Piscibus, Basilica of San Lorenzo in Damaso, San Lorenzo in Lucina, San Lorenzo in Miranda, San Lorenzo in Fonte, San Lorenzo in Panisperna and the Basilica of San Lorenzo Fuori-le-Mura)..

  • Architectural Temperance: Spain and Rome, 1700-1759
    Architectural Temperance Spain and Rome, 1700–1759 Architectural Temperance examines relations between Bourbon Spain and papal Rome (1700–1759) through the lens of cultural politics. With a focus on key Spanish architects sent to study in Rome by the Bourbon Kings, the book also discusses the establishment of a program of architectural educa- tion at the newly-founded Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando in Madrid. Victor Deupi explores why a powerful nation like Spain would temper its own building traditions with the more cosmopolitan trends associated with Rome; often at the expense of its own national and regional traditions. Through the inclusion of previously unpublished documents and images that shed light on the theoretical debates which shaped eighteenth-century architecture in Rome and Madrid, Architectural Temperance provides an insight into readers with new insights into the cultural history of early modern Spain. Victor Deupi teaches the history of art and architecture at the School of Architecture and Design at the New York Institute of Technology and in the Department of Visual and Performing Arts at Fairfield University. His research focuses on cultural politics in the early modern Ibero-American world. Routledge Research in Architecture The Routledge Research in Architecture series provides the reader with the latest scholarship in the field of architecture. The series publishes research from across the globe and covers areas as diverse as architectural history and theory, technology, digital architecture, structures, materials, details, design, monographs of architects, interior design and much more. By mak- ing these studies available to the worldwide academic community, the series aims to promote quality architectural research.

Howard Nelson 38 Book Review Bronwyn Marques 39 Additions to the CPR Library, April to November 2009 Howard Nelson 40 Secretary's Notebook Bronwyn Marques Editorial This is the eighth issue of the Confraternity of Pilgrims to Rome's Newsletter. There are two long articles, one book review, a list of additions to the CPR library and the section entitled “Secretary's Notebook,” containing short items of information likely to be of interest to our members Mark Hassall provides a written version of the talk he gave at the CPR Rome day in November, for the benefit of all those who were unable to be present, and in which he discusses his walking pilgrimage to Rome in the footsteps of one of his forebears who made the same journey six hundred years earlier. Howard Nelson continues his series of articles exploring the extraordinary richness that Rome presents to the modern pilgrims, with the fifth one dealing with the continuing Christianisation of Rome and the churches built between the fall of Rome in 410AD and the time of St. Benedict (ca 500). Articles on all aspects of the pilgrimage to Rome are invited for subsequent issues. As a rough guide they should be somewhere between 1000 and 1500 words, according to the subject matter.

  • The Relationship Between Architecture and Mathematics in the Pantheon Nexus00/01 017-102 31-05-2001 17:27 Pagina 59
    Nexus00/01_017-102 31-05-2001 17:27 Pagina 57 Giangiacomo The Relationship Between Architecture Martines and Mathematics in the Pantheon An examination of the latest Pantheon studies illustrates the newest theories of relationships between architecture and mathematics in Rome’s most celebrated building. This paper was presented at the Nexus 2000 conference on architecture and mathematics, 4-7 June 2000, Ferrara, Italy. Many studies on the Pantheon are carried out far from Rome and so ideas on the monument cannot be checked easily or frequently. For this reason, a group of architects and archaeologists are working in Rome, trying to resolve some seemingly banal but still unanswered questions. For instance, one question that is often asked is: Could the inside of the Pantheon have been an astronomical observatory? Over the last fifteen years, publications, archaeological excavations and restoration work have changed our traditional view of the Pantheon. Under the direction of Paola Virgili, the Rome Town Council Archaeology Office has recently excavated the piazza where the Pantheon is situated and the State Office for Monuments has begun restoration of the rotunda, under the direction of Mario Lolli Ghetti and Giovanni Belardi. The l8th century restoration work on this monument, with its fine marbles and colours, is the subject of a book by Susanna Pasquali. Archaeological excavation and restoration have provided objective data on which to base our observations. In 1986 Godfrei and Hemsoll [Godfrei and Hemsoll 1986] put forward a new theory on the original function of the monument: “an imperial audience chamber”. Subsequently, Hemsoll, Davies and Wilson Jones [Hemsoll, Davies and Wilson Jones 1987] published a plausible hypothesis on the size of the pronaos in the original design.

Ricerche sulla basilica romana di Sant’Agata dei Goti di Marco Aimone 1. Introduzione La basilica di Sant’Agata dei Goti sorge sulle pendici sud-orientali del Quiri- nale (IV regione augustea; IV regione ecclesiastica), al confine dell’antico quar- tiere della Suburra, dove il colle digrada con accentuata pendenza verso la valle che lo separa dal Viminale: l’edificio è fiancheggiato dalle attuali vie Panisperna e Mazzarino, quest’ultima forse ricalcante un antico asse viario in direzione N/W-S/E, tra il vicus longus e l’Argiletum1. Negli anni Venti del Novecento, le puntuali indagini condotte dall’architetto Gustavo Giovannoni – autore di un approfondito studio architettonico sull’edificio – permisero di individuare, sot- to gli intonaci moderni dell’esterno e sotto le decorazioni barocche dell’interno, le strutture murarie della basilica paleocristiana quasi interamente conservate: ciò consentì a lui e, pochi anni dopo, a Richard Krautheimer, di ricostruire nel dettaglio le forme e le dimensioni originarie dell’edificio (figg. 1-2)2. 1 Per una descrizione dettagliata della topografia antica e per i ritrovamenti avvenuti in prossi- mità della chiesa, si vedano: Lanciani, Forma Urbis Romae, tavv.
