  • {Num}1. to Don Bernardo Fusari at Rovereto
    1. To Don Bernardo Fusari at Rovereto Stresa, 3 January 1847 . This evening I find myself shut in by the snow in the Casa Bolongaro, and I want to write a few lines to my beloved Don Bernardo. Do not think that you are idle while you find yourself there at Rovereto relieved of the care of the college; for you are doing very much - indeed you are doing everything that matters in this world - as long as you are doing the most loveable and holy will of God. It is certain that divine wisdom always has its reasons for whatever it does or allows. Sometimes we are unable to see those reasons, because of our defective sight; but God’s reasoning is in reality both brilliant light and life-giving pure fire. So be happy! Keep up a holy cheerfulness, and give thanks without ceasing. Remember our dear Don Giulio [Todeschi], ever with ‘Deo Gratias’ [Thanks be to God] on his lips. Our beloved and faithful Don Angeli has gone before us to his heavenly dwelling; he will pray for us, and we for him. It may be that before long we shall meet, since the Verona foundation will call me there. The imperial decree for it has come. I commend this work to your prayers and those of Don Antonio Gasperini - whom I ask you to greet for me. I wish you both every blessing in this New Year. Your affectionate servant and friend, A. ROSMINI p. 2. To Don Pietro Bertetti atTortona Stresa, 2 January 1847 My dear brother in Christ, I approve of your idea of waiting until the coming holidays, and then detaching yourself from everything.

Prokop SAKRY I SUKCESJA świĘceń BISKUPICH PASTERZY DIECEZJI mińSKIEJ, PińSKIEJ I DROHIczyńSKIEJ W opublikowanym w roku 2006 przez piszącego te słowa książkowym zbiorze życiorysów biskupów Mińska, Pińska oraz Drohiczyna nie poświę- cono z osobna uwagi problematyce sakr i sukcesji apostolskiej tychże hie- rarchów, jakkolwiek w każdym spośród szkiców biograficznych zamiesz- czono informacje na temat konsekracji danego członka katolickiego epi- skopatu, zaś w aneksie na końcu książki znalazły się stosowne schematy sukcesji1.

Tak też w pierwszej kolejności dokonamy poniżej zebrania podstawo- wych informacji odnośnie do sakry każdego spośród interesujących nas hierarchów (data, miejsce, główny konsekrator, współkonsekratorzy), by następnie przyporządkować wszystkich tych biskupów do wyróżnianych w literaturze przedmiotu linii („rodzin”) sukcesji święceń. Całość wywo- dów zaopatrzona zostanie w zawarte w przypisach stosowne wskazania bi- bliograficzne, informujące o podstawie źródłowej tudzież o istniejących opracowaniach, w których mowa jest o danym fakcie, czego we wspo- minanej publikacji z roku 2006 zasadniczo brakowało (znalazły się tam 1 K.R.

You have in›uenced my diligence by your expressions of praise, both in your own name and in the names of your most learned friends (whom you also have in very large number). As a result, I feel that I am much more eager to pursue the investigation set forth on this subject; I would already have completed it had the abundance of waters from heaven not shown itself opposed to my own watery task. But you should not think that I have been completely idle: indeed, although I was not able to approach for a second time the sources of the Marcia and Claudia, at some distance from me, and not able therefore to follow up my ideas by surer rea- soning, not uselessly, perhaps, will I show you that I have been engaged in the more immediate neighborhood of that aqueduct introduced by Pope Sixtus and called the Acqua Felice from his own name before his ponti‹- 19 Aqueduct Hunting in the Seventeenth Century: Raffaele Fabretti's De aquis et aquaeductibus veteris Romae Harry B.

  • The Irish Catholic Episcopal Corps, 1657 – 1829: a Prosopographical Analysis
    THE IRISH CATHOLIC EPISCOPAL CORPS, 1657 – 1829: A PROSOPOGRAPHICAL ANALYSIS VOLUME 1 OF 2 BY ERIC A. DERR THESIS FOR THE DEGREE OF PHD DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY NATIONAL UNIVERISTY OF IRELAND MAYNOOTH SUPERVISOR OF RESEARCH: DR. THOMAS O’CONNOR NOVEMBER 2013 Abstract This study explores, reconstructs and evaluates the social, political, educational and economic worlds of the Irish Catholic episcopal corps appointed between 1657 and 1829 by creating a prosopographical profile of this episcopal cohort. The central aim of this study is to reconstruct the profile of this episcopate to serve as a context to evaluate the ‘achievements’ of the four episcopal generations that emerged: 1657-1684; 1685- 1766; 1767-1800 and 1801-1829. The first generation of Irish bishops were largely influenced by the complex political and religious situation of Ireland following the Cromwellian wars and Interregnum. This episcopal cohort sought greater engagement with the restored Stuart Court while at the same time solidified their links with continental agencies. With the accession of James II (1685), a new generation of bishops emerged characterised by their loyalty to the Stuart Court and, following his exile and the enactment of new penal legislation, their ability to endure political and economic marginalisation. Through the creation of a prosopographical database, this study has nuanced and reconstructed the historical profile of the Jacobite episcopal corps and has shown that the Irish episcopate under the penal regime was not only relatively well-organised but was well-engaged in reforming the Irish church, albeit with limited resources. By the mid-eighteenth century, the post-Jacobite generation (1767-1800) emerged and were characterised by their re-organisation of the Irish Church, most notably the establishment of a domestic seminary system and the setting up and manning of a national parochial system.

  • LABOUREUR, Francesco by Federico Trastulli - Biographical Dictionary of Italians - Volume 62 (2004)
    LABOUREUR, Francesco by Federico Trastulli - Biographical Dictionary of Italians - Volume 62 (2004) The son of Massimiliano, a sculptor originally from Brussels, and of Paola Salomoni, the Laboureur was born in Rome on 11 November. 1767. He was baptized in the parish of S. Lorenzo in Lucina with the names of Francesco, Filippo and Simone (Rome, Arch., Historian of the Vicariate, S. Lorenzo in Lucina, Liber baptizatorum, 32, c 127v); the fact that the Laboureur was better known as Francesco Massimiliano, or "Cavalier Massimiliano" after the conferral of the knighthood of the papal order of the Golden Spur, has generated confusion regarding the news concerning the biography and the works referable to him, to his father and son Alessandro Massimiliano. The Laboureur devoted himself early to sculpture, learning the rudiments in the family; he attended the courses of the Accademia di S. Luca, obtaining the second place at the Clementino Prize of 1783. His fortune in the Roman environment was linked to the figure of the French F. Cacault, minister plenipotentiary in Rome as well as great patron, who already in a letter of 1801 signaled to the Minister for Foreign Affairs, Ch.-M. de Talleyrand, the excellent workmanship of a marble bust of Napoleon who commissioned the sculptor, part of a larger group of works he collected, now at the Musée des beaux-arts in Nantes. There is news about the working of a second bust of Bonaparte in another letter from Cacault, announcing how he had in mind to make the Laboureur also a colossal statue of Napoleon, at the time the first consul.

  • Il Cardinale Pietro Gasparri Segretario Di Stato (1914–1930)
    Lorenzo Botrugno Gasparri ed i rapporti con il Regno Unito nel pontificato di Pio XI Spunti per la ricerca a partire dalle sessioni della Congregazione degli Affari Ecclesiastici Straordinari Abstract Through unpublished documentary sources – the minutes of the meetings of the Sacred Congregation of Extraordinary Ecclesiastical Affairs – the essay aims to illustrate Pietro Gasparri’s privileged perspective over anglo-vatican relations. While mainly focused on his period as Cardinal Secretary of State of Pius XI (1922–1930), some hints will also be given to his tenure of office during the pontificate of Benedict XV, as well as to Consalvi’s and Rampolla’s influence on his way of perceiving British matters. Gasparri’s role and at­ titude will be analysed with particular reference to the negotiations on the appointments of Apostolic Delegates in the British Empire (1926) and the conflict between Church and State in Malta (1928–1932). 1 Introduzione Nel giudizio storiografico la persona e l’opera del Gasparri sono state associate, da sempre, a quella corrente della diplomazia pontificia che si richiama al realismo ed alla flessibilità nella ricerca di intese con gli Stati 1: è dal 1932 che Ernesto Vercesi ne percepì la figura allineata a quella di due suoi predecessori al vertice della Segreteria di Stato, i cardinali Ercole Consalvi e Mariano Rampolla del Tindaro, ognuno dei quali rappresentava natu­ 1 Tale fu, ad esempio, la percezione di Giovanni Spadolini: “Gasparri era, e restava in ogni atto della sua vita, il grand commis della Chiesa, il grande diplomatico spregiudicato e scettico, armato con tutti i ferri del mestiere ma capace di tutte le duttilità e di tutte le astuzie, pur di servire un fine che egli giudicava essenziale”.
