PRÉSENTATION * PRESENTAZIONE Welcome to our Newsletter. You will see that it comes in two sections. In the first section I provide a repertory of those who have said that they are willing to be listed as having some kind of expertise in Dominican history, with their addresses, interests, projects and relevant publications. I invite the collaboration of everyone in expanding this list, which is not confined to subscribers. I also report items of news and bits of information of various kinds, university dissertations I have come across which deal with Dominican topics, and questions submitted by subscribers, to which you are invited to reply. The second section is devoted to systematic bibliographies. In these I have tried particularly to include information about recent publications (1987-1992), but I have also attempted to launch some more thorough bibliographies, to give an idea of what I hope we shall eventually achieve, with the collaboration of ali of us. In every case, the bibliographies I publish here shou]d be regarded as an invitation to the reader to supply extra information. I hope to initiate in the next number some other bibliographies which I should like to develop. Contributions are welcome in Latin or any of the main western European languages (in line with the practice of Archivum Fratrum Praedicatorum). People supplying informationinvolving the use of other languages are requested to provide a translation into Latin or some western European language. For editoria! purposes, I shall restrict myself to Latin, English, French and Italian. *** Je salue tous les lecteurs de ce Bulletin. Vous verrez qu'il a deux parties. Dans la première partie j'ai fourni un répertoire de ceux qui ont signalé leur volonté d'etre nommés comme ayant quelque compétence à l'égard de l'histoire dominicaine, avec leur adresses, leur intérets, leur projets et leur publications rélatives à notre sujet. Je vous invite tous à faire de votre mieux pour que ce répertoire s'élargisse, et naturellement il n'est pas limité aux abonnés du Bulletin. En plus je vous donne des nouvelles et des informations de plusieurs genres, j' ai dressé la liste des thèses universitaires que je connais et qui sont en rapport avec notre thème, et je vous pose des questions soumises par quelques-uns de nos abonnés, en vous invitant à y répondre si vous voulez. Vol. I, 1992 3 La deuxième partie comporle des bibliographies plus systéma­ tiques. J'ai essayé d'abord d'y fournir des renseignements sur !es éditions récentes (I 987-1992), mais j'ai aussi lancé des bibliographies plus globales pour vous montrer ce que j'espère un jour achever avec la collaboration de vous tous. Chaque élément des bibliographies publiées ici doit vous stimuler à m'en envoyer des compléments. Il y a d'autres bibliographies que je n'ai pas encore lancées, que j'espère commencer dans le prochain numéro. Les contributions au Bulletin seront !es bienvenues en Latin ou en n'importe laquelle des principles langues d'Europe occidentale (selon la pratique d'Archivum Fratrum Praedicatorum). Ceux qui nous donnent des renseignements qui exigent l'usage d'autres langues sont priés d'en fournir une traduction. En rédacteur, je me bornerai d'habitude aux langues latine, anglaise, française et italienne. ** A tutti i gentili lettori di questo Bollettino, saluti e auguri. Ci sono due sezioni del Bollettino. Nella prima troverete un repertorio di coloro che avendo qualche competenza riguardo alla storia domenicana hanno consentito di essere elencati, con i loro indirizzi, interessi, progetti e le loro pubblicazioni relative al nostro argomento. Tutti i lettori sono pregati di fare il possibile perchè si allarghi il repertorio, che non è limitato a coloro che vogliono abbonarsi al Bollettino. Di più vi troverete notizie diverse e un elenco delle tesi universitarie a me note che toccano la storia domenicana, ed in fine delle domande proposte da alcuni dei nostri abbonati, alle quali siete cordialmente invitati a rispondere. La seconda sezione comprende delle bibliografie sistematiche, nelle quali ho provato sopprattuto di informarvi sulle pubblicazioni recenti (1987-1992), ma ho anche voluto iniziare delle bibliografie più complete, allo scopo di mostrare ciò che spero un giorno effettuare colla collaborazione di tutti. Ogni bibliografia qui edita dovrebbe stimolare i lettori a spedirmi dei complementi. Spero iniziare altre bibliografie nel prossimo numero. I contributi saranno benvenuti in latino o in qualsiasi delle lingue principali dell'Europa occidentale (secondo la pratica di Archivum Fratrum Praedicatorum). Se qualche informazione comporta un'altra lingua, si prega di fornirne gentilmente una traduzione. Da redattore, io mi limiterò generalmente al latino, inglese, francese e italiano.

  • Los Fundamentos Del Principio De Capacidad Contributiva En El Pensamiento De Santo Tomás De Aquino*
    Los fundamentos del principio de capacidad contributiva en el pensamiento de Santo Tomás de Aquino* Grounds for the Contributing Capacity Principle in the Thinking of Saint Thomas Aquinas Os fundamentos do princípio de capacidade contributiva no pensamento de São Tomás de Aquino ANDREA AMATUCCI1 Profesor emérito de la Universidad Federico II de Nápoles – Italia Fecha de recepción: 5 de noviembre de 2014 Fecha de aprobación: 9 de diciembre de 2014 Página inicial: 161 Página final: 176 Resumen Santo Tomás de Aquino, gran exponente del tercer período de la filosofía y teolo- gía medieval denominada Escolástica, se inspiró en el pensamiento aristotélico y agustiniano. Le atrajeron de modo especial las teorías causales de Aristóteles, de la Escolástica y de su Maestro Alberto Magno. Santo Tomás propuso las si- guientes concausas del tributo: a) la causa final; b) la causa formal; c) la causa eficiente; d) la causa material. La teoría de las causas de Santo Tomás consoli- da y enriquece algunos aspectos del actual concepto de tributo, y permite valorar si la ley tributaria respeta o no el principio de capacidad contributiva, que garanti- za la igualdad y la equidad. El Derecho de la Unión Europea atribuye al Principio del “efecto útil”, que Santo Tomás formuló y refirió a la ley tributaria, la función de imponer una interpretación y una aplicación de la norma comunitaria “funcional”, orientada a la consecución de sus fines. La ley tributaria debe aplicarse al caso concreto cuando de ello se deriven efectos que se identifiquen con los fines eco- * Conferencia impartida en las Jornadas de estudio sobre La evolución del sistema fiscal y el principio de capacidad contributiva, celebradas en la Universidad Federico II de Nápoles en septiembre de 2012.

  • A Christian Understanding of Homosexuality
    A CHRISTIAN UNDERSTANDING OF HOMOSEXUALITY Introduction Over the past 45 years, our society has undergone a revolution – there is really no other way to describe it – in the prevailing cultural attitudes towards homosexuality and various related ‘alternative’ sexualities, an entire range of behaviors now collectively referred to by the acronym LGBTQ – Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer (this last term being a catch-all for identities and behaviors that do not fit into any of the preceding categories). Most of the contemporary population has come of age during this revolution. Older readers will remember a time when if such things were even mentioned, it was usually in the form of a tasteless joke, or in the context of an insult. Indeed, the behaviors associated with homosexuality were once criminally punishable in almost every jurisdiction – federal, state, and local – in the United States, and similarly abroad. To be ‘outed’ credibly as someone who engaged in homosexual behavior usually meant that one’s reputation and career were ruined. Active homosexuals stayed carefully closeted, as they could become targets of blackmail or worse. Today, not only does our society broadly tolerate homosexual behavior, it is legally recognized and given protected status. The US Supreme Court’s Obergefell decision in June of 2015 made the United States the 22nd country to officially recognize same-sex marriage. Homosexual characters are everywhere in television and films, and the attention of social progressives is moving towards the mainstreaming of ever more exotic sexual identities. Young people are growing up in an environment where casual acceptance of homosexuality and bisexuality is increasingly seen as the norm, and where dissenters from the new orthodoxy are regarded with contempt, not only as ignorant and unenlightened, but as positively evil.

  • Trajectories of Croatian Jesuit Historiography Brnardic, Teodora Shek
    From Acceptance to Animosity: Trajectories of Croatian Jesuit Historiography Brnardic, Teodora Shek Teodora Shek Brnardić [email protected] Last modified: March 2018 Introduction The emergence of a Croatian historiography of the Society of Jesus took place in the often virulently anti-Jesuit and anti-clerical atmosphere that was prevalent in Croatia in the second half of the nineteenth and first half of the twentieth century. This period represented a historical crisis for the Jesuit order in Croatia, one that provoked controversies that were largely absent in the pre-suppression period, unlike in many other countries where such disputes had existed ever since the sixteenth century. In 1932, Miroslav Vanino, S.J. (1879–1965) launched a scholarly journal entitled Vrela i prinosi: Zbornik za povijest isusovačkog reda u hrvatskim krajevima (Sources and contributions: Collected papers on the history of the Jesuit order in the Croatian lands),1 which marked a turning point in the creation of a Croatian Jesuit historiography. In doing so, Vanino intended to revise the prevailing view of the pre-suppression Jesuits, who were often accused of behaving in an “anti-national” way. This latter view had become widespread among the educated Croatian elite, particularly during the Austro-Hungarian fin-de-siècle. Vanino’s journal accordingly sought to correct this politically biased interpretation of the Jesuits’ role in Croatian history with articles written by both Jesuit and non-Jesuit contributors.2 The journal would provide the foundation for a source-based, critical history of the Society of Jesus in the Croatian lands and of its relations with the Croats.
