Carlo Gaetano Calosirto was born on 15 August 1654 on the island

of Ischia off the coast of Naples.

He entered the Order of Minor in Naples before he turned

sixteen and assumed the religious name of "John Joseph of the

Cross". He was the first Italian to follow the reform movement

of Saint Peter of Alcantara. In 1674 he was sent to found

In 1702 the Italian convents were no longer dependent on the

Spanish houses but were formed into a separate province. He was

appointed as the Vicar Provincial of the Alcantarine Reform in the

Italian peninsula as a result of this. As the superior he ordered that no beggar should be dismissed from the con- vent gate without some form of relief: in times of need he devoted to their necessities his own portions and even that of the convent he lived at. When he trekked across the mainland as the provincial he would not make himself known at the inns where he lodged because he disliked distinction and did not believe such should be paid to him.

He desired those whom he restored to health to take some certain medicine that the cure might be attributed to a mere natural source and with regard to his own prophecies - which were numerous - he affected to judge from analogies and experiences.

He was beatified under Pope Pius VI on 24 May 1789 and was later canonized as a saint of the Roman Catholic

Church on 26 May 1839 under Pope Gregory XVI. At the Aragonese Castle (Il Castello Aragonese) on Ischia there is a small chapel consecrated to the late .
