  • Bibliografia Del Centenario Teresiano
    Teresianum 34 (1983/2) 355-451 BIBLIOGRAFIA DEL CENTENARIO TERESIANO Una de las posibles medidas que puede aplicarse a un acontecimiento como el del IV Centenario de la muerte de Santa Teresa de Jesús (1582- 1982) es la de verificar la producción que ha suscitado; más aún tratán­ dose de un personaje que interesa tanto a la historia y literatura espa­ ñolas, como a la espiritualidad cristiana. La revista Teregianum, antes Ephemerides Carmeliticae, inauguraba su nueva etapa con un número extraordinario que abarca todo el año 1983, dedicado por completo a la Santa de la que toma nombre la Facultad de Espiritualidad de Roma, dirigida por los Carmelitas Descalzos; ella viene a ser el órgano ofi­ cial de su expresión científica *. Ahora, quiere ofrecer esta panorámica bibliográfica como culmen de tal efeméride, consciente de prestar así un servicio a cuantos siguen con interés los estudios en torno a la Santa de Avila2. 1. Una larga efeméride Queriendo precisar el alcanze de esta conmemoración no se pueden fijar unos límites estrechos de coincidencia matemática con el suceso histórico recordado: la muerte de Teresa de Jesús, en Alba de Tormes, el 4 de octubre de 1982. Este centenario ha sido una ocasión esperada, preparada con ilusión desde amplios sectores, anticipada un año en el tiempo que le correspondía y prolongada, para dar oportunidad a que fuera la presencia del Papa Juan Pablo II quien le concluyera. Ya en el año 1979, el Capítulo General ordinario del Carmelo Tere- siano se fijaba en el próximo acontecimiento e incluía unas determina­ ciones al respecto3.

  • Presentation
    The community in brief ...in celibacy and in community... Since the first centuries of Christianity there have been men and women who early on came to be called monastics, and who gave up everything in an attempt to live in radical obedience to the Gospel Since the first centuries of Christianity there have been men and women who early on came to be called monastics, and who gave up everything in an attempt to live in radical obedience to the Gospel, in celibacy and in community. Bose lies within this tradition, which belongs to the Christian East and West alike. The community seeks to live monastic life in our own time under the guidance of a rule and a spiritual father, the prior, whose duty it is to point the community at all times towards the one true light of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. "Bose" is a monastic community of men and women belonging to different Christian churches. It is a monastic community seeking God in prayer, poverty, celibacy, and obedience to the Gospel. It is a monastic community living in fellowship with men and women and at their service. the house where the community lived in the first years as it looks today The Monastic Community of Bose was canonically approved by a decree dated 11 July 2000 of the Bishop of Biella, Massimo Giustetti, who also approved its statute and the monastic rule that went with it. The present Ordinary, Bishop Gabriele Mana, confirmed the above status of juridical person and approved modifications to the statute in a decree dated 29 June 2010.

  • Shroud News Issue #63 February 1991
    A NEWSLETTER ABOUT THE HOLY SHROUD OF TURIN edited by REX MORGAN, Author of several books on the Shroud Issue Number 63 FEBRUARY 1991 THE FACE ON THE SHROUD PHOTOGRAPH DIGITALLY COMPUTERISED AND TREATED TO REDUCE WOUND IMAGES AND ENHANCED TO GIVE THE IMPRESSION OF WHAT THE MAN MUST HAVE LOOKED LIKE. THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF THE WORK OF PROFESSOR GIOVANNI TAMBURELLI OF TURIN, ITALY, WHO DIED LAST MONTH 2 SHROUD NEWS No 63 (February 1991) EDITORIAL As we witness the extraordinary media event of the Iraqi War and we hear of such disasters as the destruction of fabulous Kuwaiti collections of historic objects from the very cradle of civilisation by the envoys of madman Saddam, let alone his mass murder of Kuwaitis and his own Iraqi people, it is a bizarre thought to recall that all this is being directed from the very place identified as the most likely site of the Garden of Eden, that tract of fertile land between the Tigris and the Euphrates, and that the deranged destruction of places and people is raging in the very city where the burial of Christ took place and where, therefore, rested the object of our particular interest, the Shroud of Turin. This issue, the first of 1991, contains almost entirely European material. We read first of the death of another of the Shroud "old guard", distinguished Turinese scientist and Shroud researcher, Giovanni Tamburelli. From Italy we move to Belgium for a report on Remi Van Haelst's new booklet in his ever strengthening pursuit of the mathematics of statistics concerning the C14 experiment of 1988.

  • Shroud News Issue #52 April 1989
    ISSUE No. 52 A NEWSLETTER ABOUT THE HOLY SHROUD OF TURIN April 1989 edited by REX MORGAN Author of PERPETUAL MIRACLE and SHROUD GUIDE POSTER FOR THE 1931 EXPOSITION OF THE HOLY SHROUD 2 SHROUD NEWS No 52 (April 1989) EDITORIAL In the now fortuitously fading light of that October press fanfare crying "fake" and the increasing intensity with which all the other evidence is being studied throughout the world by sindonologists fired with the spirit of objective enquiry into probably the world's greatest mystery, I believe that the historical and hence the supporting artistic and iconographic references to the Shroud have now assumed a far greater importance in the scheme of things. There is also an increasing number of press articles being published worldwide challenging the validity of the C14 dating of 1988 from several points of view. It is good to see that reputable journals are now publishing these and even some newspapers are taking a quite sensible view of the vast evidence which contradicts the C14 findings despite their lust for a scandal-like story of a fake. To follow my opening statement I am pleased to note that a very significant international conference has been arranged in Bologna, Italy in May of this year under the title La Sindone E Le Icone (The Shroud and Iconography). The programme will include papers from experts from many countries and amongst others are Ian Wilson (England), Paul Maloney and Alan Whanger (USA),Heinrich Pfeiffer and Werner Bulst (Germany), Andre Dubarle (France), Mario Moroni, Luigi Fossati, Gino Zaninotto and Giovanni Tamburelli (Italy), to mention only a few better known names in the sindonological world.

He was a leader in Shroud studies for 52 years, a Redemptorist for 62 and President of the Holy Shroud Guild for 40 years. His obituary is amongst several in this issue 2 SHROUD NEWS No 113 (April 1999) EDITORIAL I have not been able to bring you obituaries of several recently deceased Shroud personalities and so this issue contains five of them. Hilda Leynen of Belgium aged 75; Baron Francois van der Straten Waillet of Belgium aged 88; Revd Fr Adam Otterbein of New York aged 82; Cardinal Anastasio Ballestrero of Turin aged 85 and Molly Drew of Templecombe aged 85. I knew or had met all of these Shroud people and I have included some pictures with the obituaries. Still to be eulogised are Bro Michael Buttigieg of Malta and Rodger Apple of New York. The interesting aspect of the five deaths noted in this issue is their relatively great age (average 83), which is encouraging. Following the extraordinary announcement in Turin last year that there would be no international conference associated with the year 2000 exposition, news has come of one being organised in Orvieto, Italy, to coincide with the dates of the Exposition of the Shroud in late August 2000.

  • FR. GIUSEPPE QUADRIO Theology Teacher and Master of Life
    FR. GIUSEPPE QUADRIO Theology Teacher and Master of Life Translation by John Rasor of Remo Bracchi (ed.), Don Giuseppe Quadrio: Docente di Teologia e Maestro di Vita (Rome, LAS 1989), pp. 9-22. These are the proceedings of a 1989 symposium on Fr. Quadrio at the Salesian Pontifical University in Rome. Presentation Fr. Giuseppe Quadrio spent the last fourteen years of his brief and intensive life as a teacher of dogmatic theology in the Theology Department of what was then the Salesian Pontifical Athenaeum of Turin (now Salesian Pontifical University in Rome). He was also chairman of the Department (from 1954 to 1959), up to the time his illness forced his retirement. Teaching theology was the main job given him, and he consecrated his best energies to that, with great seriousness and dedication, bringing to fruition what he had matured in the years of preparation for this task. But more than an assignment or a duty, he always saw a privileged and unique mission. He pushed himself to make an authentic existential synthesis of study, teaching and life; of his study and his life; of theological investigation and contemporary reality; of its problems and challenges. For the students, this was – as numerous testimonies demonstrate – the most important and eloquent lesson of Fr. Quadrio: doing theology with gaze turned with constant attention to those hearing the doctrine, to the students in front of him as well as those far off, but no less important, men of today with their conditionings and culture. He succeeded above all in “doing theology” in the crucible of his own life.

    ISSUE No. 47 A NEWSLETTER ABOUT THE HOLY SHROUD OF TURIN JUNE 1988 edited by REX MORGAN Author of PERPETUAL MIRACLE and SHROUD GUIDE THE ARCHBISHOP OF TURIN, ITALY, CARDINAL ANASTASIO BALLESTRERO BEING INTERVIEWED IN AUGUST 1978 WHEN THE SHROUD WAS EXHIBITED AND SUBSEQUENTLY EXAMINED BY A TEAM OF SCIENTISTS. IN 1988, TEN YEARS LATER, THE WORLD EXPECTS THE CARDINAL TO ANNOUNCE THE RESULTS OF THE CARBON DATING OF THE SHROUD OF TURIN 2 SHROUD NEWS 47 June 1988 EDITORIAL The attention of the world is concentrated on the carbon dating of the Shroud which is going on at the moment. Whilst I have my personal reservations about the ultimate importance of this test, it cannot be denied that, whatever the result, the quest for knowledge and information about this extraordinarily mystifying object will continue apace. Accordingly I have devoted a large part of this issue to an article I have compiled from some recent sources bringing together some of the carbon 14 details as they stand at present. An interesting activity in the next few weeks will be the showing of the Brooks Institute Shroud Photographic Exhibit, now owned by the Australia-based South East Asia Research Centre for the Holy Shroud (SEARCH), for the first time in Canada. The exhibit is packed and on its way to Calgary in Alberta where it will be a special attraction in the cultural section of the Calgary Stampede and Exhibition. I understand that the Calgary Exhibition attracts more than a million visitors and that by the end of May this year the organisers had already pre-sold over 100,000 entry tickets.

  • Shroud News Issue #80 December 1993
    A NEWSLETTER ABOUT THE HOLY SHROUD OF TURIN edited by REX MORGAN, Author of several books on the Shroud Issue Number 80 DECEMBER 1993 Vista esteriore della Metropolitana e della Reale Cappella. AN ILLUSTRATION FROM A BOOK PUBLISHED TO COINCIDE WITH THE 1898 EXPOSITION OF THE SHROUD IN TURIN, "La Santissima Sindone del Signore" 2 SHROUD NEWS No 80 (December 1993) EDITORIAL It is interesting to compare three recent reports of the Paris Symposium in other journals. The French Lettre Mensuelle commented on the significance of the papers by Ribay, Babinet, Mrs Jackson, Fossati, Zaninotto, LeGrand, Bongert, Pfeiffer and Schlomer, Mr Jackson, Clercq, Dubarle, and Lejeune. In the American Shroud Sources abstracts were reprinted of "some of the most significant" of over thirty papers. These were by Kouznetsov, Van Haelst, Lavoie, Morgan, Clercq and Rinaudo. On the other hand the British BSTS Newsletter commented on the papers of Zaninotto, Pfeiffer, Morgan, Lejeune, Bergeret, Lindner, Dickinson, Lavoie, John Jackson, Piczek, Maloney, Adler and Kouznetsov. This variation of opinion from one country to another and from one journal to another, is, of course, the very lifeblood of unbiased research. It seems to me, as we come to the end of another year of Shroud research, that there is far greater realisation that the carbon testings of 1988 are less and less acceptable. Almost every paper delivered at the Rome conference and most of what has been written and said before and since makes it quite plain that something was very wrong with the Turin capers. Just what that is has yet to be determined, if it ever is.
