Most of them are located in almost biblical scenery away from the crowded city centers. Buses or cars are necessary for most of the routes, but many of them also include sections that can be done on foot. The routes are planned for those who wish to visit lesser-known sites that still maintain the flavor of the country before the development boom of the last 100 years.

  • Custos of the Holy Land and Patriarch at the Second Vatican Council
    A biographical profile of Bishop Alberto Gori Custos of the Holy Land and Patriarch at the Second Vatican Council by Paolo Pieraccini Last November marked the fortieth anniversary of the death of Alberto Gori, Custos of the Holy Land (1937-1949) and Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem (1950-1970). Born in San Piero Agliana (Pistoia, Italy) on 9th February 1889, he put on his Franciscan habit on 27th September 1907 in the Tuscan province of St. Bonaventure, which was particularly lively from the intellectual point of view. He completed his grammar school studies in the convent of Fiesole, his philosophical studies in Siena and theological studies in Signa, where he was ordained a priest on 19th July 1914. After having served in the war as a military chaplain, he asked to be sent to serve in the Custody 1. On 8th February 1919 he arrived in Jerusalem, where he was assigned to the service of the Holy Sepulchre. In 1922, the Discretorium of the Holy Land decided to send him to Aleppo to teach classics and as Deputy Headmaster of the prestigious College of Higher Studies, founded by the Custody in 1859 to give “a very scrupulous scientific and moral education” to pupils of all religious confessions. The next year, he became the headmaster of the school, remaining in office for fifteen years, in time to see several of his pupils take up important positions in Syrian politics and public administration. On 22nd February 1937, the General Definitorium of the Order of Friars Minor chose him for the position of Custos.

  • Vatican Diplomacy and Palestine, 1900–1950 Nineteenth-Century Reorganization of the Catholic Presence in the Holy Land
    The aim of this article is to shed light on Vatican Diplomacy Vatican diplomacy’s interaction with events and Palestine, in the first half of the twentieth century to redraw the geopolitical map in the Middle 1900–1950 East and especially in Palestine where, after Paolo Zanini thirty years of British Mandate rule, the state of Israel was proclaimed in 1948. What was the Holy See’s reaction to these developments and how did the Vatican’s envoys to the region analyze events and try to influence the rapidly changing picture? In response to these questions it is necessary to bear in mind not just the changes that, in 1929 and 1948, led to a profound alteration of the Vatican’s structure in the region, but also, more generally, the organization of the Catholic church in the Holy Land since the beginning of the nineteenth century. The article is thus divided into five parts: the first looks at the consolidation of the Catholic presence from the nineteenth to the twentieth centuries; the second examines the reaction of Catholic institutions to the revolutionary transformations after the First World War and the establishment of the British Mandate; the third addresses institutional and political changes that happened in 1929; the fourth looks at changes in Vatican policy during the 1930s; and the fifth deals with the Vatican’s reorganization of its presence in Palestine after the Second World War and the first Arab- Israeli war, and how it engaged the political and (especially important from a Catholic standpoint) theological novelty of Jewish sovereignty over the Christian Holy Land or part of it.

  • Abuse to Acceptance: Cleveland's Italian Community from 1880-1920
    Abuse to Acceptance: Cleveland’s Italian Community from 1880-1920 Isabel Robertson Senior Honors Thesis Presented to the Department of History Weinberg College of Arts and Science Northwestern University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Honors Degree in History May 4, 2017 Advisor: Henry Binford Seminar Director: Edward Muir ii Copyright © 2017 by Isabel Robertson iii Contents Abstract iv Acknowledgements v Abbreviations vi Introduction 1 Chapter I: “The foreign population grows by natural increase” 9 Chapter II: “The worst classes that come from Europe” 27 Chapter III: “With the passing of time this condition improves” 43 Conclusion 67 Appendix 71 Bibliography 74 iv Abstract Each successive wave of immigrants to America has faced prejudice founded in fear and uncertainty. Immigrants from Italy were particularly discriminated against in the early years of their arrival, from 1880 through 1920. They faced violence, racial slurs, and media attacks based on an unsubstantiated stereotype of criminality. This project set out to discern how the Italian immigrant community in America, through the case study of the city of Cleveland, evolved from being despised and racialized to being accepted as white Americans. Archival research, historical newspaper articles, and manuscripts such as letters and Americanization pamphlets largely inform the writing, in addition to secondary scholarship and memoirs. The paper lays out first the context in which Italian immigrants came to Cleveland and where in the ethnic fabric they fit, then the negative reputation and stereotyping that the Italian population faced, and finally the Americanization processes of the Italian community in Cleveland. Economic mobility, support from hometown societies, individual community leaders, and the racial dynamics of Italians’ white skin and subsequent discrimination against African Americans each contributed to the evolution of Americanization for Italian immigrants.
