Pierluigi Vito "Nel cuore del figlio"Edizioni Città Nuovawww.edizionicittanuova.itSi dice che non esista una parola per indicare la condizione del genitore che perde un figlio. Rolando Ferroni quella parola l'ha trovata e la sconta sulla propria pelle.Lui, uomo ricco e soddisfatto della propria vita, maestro nel creare società off-shore per portare i soldi degli altri in paradisi fiscali, non ha mai coltivato scrupoli morali nel lavoro; tuttavia è sempre stato capace di attenzioni e tenerezze verso le persone a cui è più affezionato: il fratello minore Roberto, la moglie Giulia e il figlio Riccardo, a cui ha trasmesso la passione per il tennis. Ma proprio durante la finale di un torneo giovanile Riccardo si accascia a terra e muore.A sette anni di distanza dal tragico evento inizia un'altra storia, un viaggio che metterà Rolando sulle tracce di quel che resta di suo figlio: gli organi che danno vita ad altri ragazzi.Incontrerà Aisha, diciottenne di fede musulmana che vuole scappare di casa; Mattia, che a diciannove anni sembra aver tagliato i ponti col mondo; Daniela, che spingerà Rolando a rivelare un penoso segreto.Meta del viaggio è Parigi, dove lo attende un ulti- mo momento da dedicare alla memoria di Riccardo: l'incontro con una leggenda del tennis. Ma una volta giunti nella capitale francese, il destino li farà precipitare nel gorgo di un drammatico imprevisto.Pierluigi Vito è nato a Viterbo nel 1974.

TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜ https://www.bastabugie.it/8364IL SACRO CHIODO DI COLLE VAL D'ELSA di Don Stefano Bimbi I Sacri Chiodi o Santi Chiodi sono quelli usati nella crocifissione di Gesù. Sono reliquie molto venerate dalla Cristianità, insieme alla Vera Croce e al Titulus Crucis.Fu Sant'Elena, madre dell'imperatore Costantino, a ritrovare le reliquie della Passione durante il suo pellegrinaggio in Terra Santa tra il 327 e il 328. Il primo riferimento scritto a queste reliquie risale al 395 in un'orazione pronunciata da Sant'Ambrogio che le menziona nel discorso funebre per l'imperatore Teodosio.Nel VI secolo, a Costantinopoli, esistevano tracce della venerazione di più Sacri Chiodi. Tradizionalmente, i Sacri Chiodi sono ritenuti quattro, poiché si pensa che, durante la crocifissione, a ciascun piede fosse infisso un chiodo separato. Il metodo di crocifissione praticato al tempo di Gesù, infatti, seguiva l'uso riservato agli schiavi sia presso i Greci che presso i Romani fin dall'epoca precristiana. Tale tecnica prevedeva l'affiancamento dei piedi, anziché la loro sovrapposizione (come invece sembrerebbe suggerito dalla Sacra Sindone), rendendo necessario l'impiego di quattro chiodi in totale. Il commediografo latino T. Maccio Plauto, nel III sec., in Mostellaria, chiariva: «affinché siano inchiodati alla croce due volte i piedi, due volte le braccia». Anche san Cipriano nel Sermo de Passione Domini, sempre nel III secolo affermava: «con i chiodi che trapassarono i santi piedi».Nonostante in Europa siano una trentina le reliquie venerate come Sacri Chiodi, i quattro principali sono considerati quello conservato nella Basilica di Santa Croce in Gerusalemme, quello nella corona ferrea a Monza, quello sospeso sopra l'altare maggiore del Duomo di Milano e infine quello del duomo di Colle di Val d'Elsa in provincia di Siena. Questo vuol dire che gli altri sono falsi? Assolutamente no. Non deve sorprendere il fatto che i Sacri Chiodi venerati siano molteplici. In un'epoca di profonda fede come il Medioevo, si sentì la necessità di moltiplicare queste reliquie per rispondere al desiderio ardente dei cristiani di possedere un segno tangibile della Passione di Cristo. È documentato infatti che, utilizzando limature o frammenti dei Sacri Chiodi autentici, vennero forgiati altri chiodi per essere distribuiti alla devozione dei fedeli. Altro modo di moltiplicare le reliquie era per contatto. Bastava prendere un chiodo e metterlo a contatto con un Sacro Chiodo. Ad esempio San Carlo Borromeo donò parecchi chiodi che erano stati a contatto con il Sacro Chiodo di Milano. A Colle di Val d'Elsa l'uso di creare nuove reliquie per contatto si diffuse a tal punto che nel 1683 le autorità proibirono che qualunque oggetto toccasse il Sacro Chiodo. Va tenuto conto che si possono considerare comunque degni di venerazione sia queste reliquie "prodotte" a partire dai Sacri Chiodi originali, sia altri chiodi che, sebbene non abbiano sostenuto il corpo di Gesù, siano però serviti comunque per la crocifissione, ad esempio quelli con cui vennero connesse le parti della Croce o quello con cui fu affissa la tavoletta col Titulus Crucis.COLLE DI VAL D'ELSATornando ai quattro Sacri Chiodi principali, essi sono dunque conservati a Roma, Milano, Monza e Colle di Val d'Elsa. Visto che in quest'ultima città sono nato e che la mia famiglia vi abita almeno dal 1400, vorrei narrarne più approfonditamente la storia.Colle di Val d'Elsa è il comune della Toscana sulla strada tra Firenze e Siena che ha dato i natali ad Arnolfo di Cambio, famoso scultore e architetto. Il Sacro Chiodo che vi si venera è un chiodo di ferro di circa ventidue centimetri di lunghezza, munito ad un'estremità della capocchia ed all'altra ancora appuntito, intaccato e piegato in prossimità della punta. Nelle descrizioni di questa reliquia riportate nei documenti ufficiali sempre si parla di Unus ex Clavis quo crucifixus est Dominus Noster Jesus Christus. Cosi nelle bolle dei papi Eugenio IV, Callisto III, Sisto V, Urbano VIII, Clemente X. Molto probabilmente si tratta del chiodo che trafisse il piede sinistro di Gesù.La preziosa reliquia giunse in Val d'Elsa nel IX secolo grazie a un vescovo franco che la ricevette dalle mani di un pontefice negli anni successivi alla morte di Carlo Magno. Durante il viaggio di ritorno il vescovo morì a Viterbo affidando il prezioso chiodo a un sacerdote originario del contado colligiano. L'insigne reliquia ebbe subito un grande culto. Tra i devoti spicca l'arciprete Sant'Alberto da Chiatina che resse il clero di Colle dal 1177 al 1202, quando morì "crocifisso" da lunghe sofferenze corporali sopportate con esemplare pazienza tanto da essere definito il Giobbe della Valdelsa, il cui corpo si trova nel duomo dove è conservato il Sacro Chiodo. In alcuni documenti dell'epoca il Sacro Chiodo è stato detto "Chiodo del Beato Alberto".La preziosa reliquia si trova ancora oggi custodita in un semplice bucciolo di canna, lo stesso che l'avvolgeva quel lontano giorno in cui il Sacro Chiodo passò dalle mani del vescovo franco a quelle del sacerdote colligiano. Sembra che questo contenitore fosse una parte della canna usata per porgere l'aceto a Gesù sulla croce. Quel che è certo è che quando i canonici provarono a mettere la reliquia in un contenitore diverso, cioè un reliquiario d'argento, il Sacro Chiodo fu ritrovato miracolosamente nel vecchio bucciolo di canna. Oggi la reliquia è conservata dentro di esso e posta all'interno di un pregevole forziere d'argento, raffinata opera di oreficeria fiorentina datata 1628. Al suo interno si trovano anche, perfettamente conservati, gli antichissimi guanti di lana indossati nel XII secolo da Sant'Alberto e utilizzati da tutti i suoi successori fino ad oggi per maneggiare la sacra reliquia. Il forziere è custodito in un apposito tabernacolo ed è protetto da cinque chiavi. In passato due di esse erano conservate dal Comune, una dal vescovo e le rimanenti dai canonici. Nel 1868 il Comune, in pieno clima risorgimentale, rinunciò a tale diritto in nome della separazione tra Stato e Chiesa e come segno di disprezzo della devozione popolare.FATTI STRAORDINARINumerosi sono i fatti straordinari e le grazie attribuite nel corso dei secoli alla venerazione del Sacro Chiodo, molti dei quali documentati con cura. L'insigne reliquia veniva solennemente invocata nei momenti più drammatici della storia cittadina. Emblematico è l'episodio della peste che colpì Colle nel 1527. Ogni giorno si contavano tra i trenta e i quaranta morti. La gente era stremata e impaurita, ma in quel momento venne presa una decisione coraggiosa e carica di fede: portare in processione per tutta la città la sacra reliquia. C'erano tutti: uomini, donne, l'intero clero. E tutti camminavano scalzi, in segno di penitenza e devozione profonda. Non c'erano a quell'epoca autorità sanitarie e decreti governativi a bloccare il popolo che si riuniva per pregare. Ogni passo era un atto di speranza lanciato contro la malattia che mieteva vittime senza sosta. E il miracolo avvenne, la peste si fermò. Non un altro morto. Non un nuovo contagio. Testimoni oculari lasciarono racconti scritti a futura memoria.Con questa stessa devozione furono affrontate guerre come durante l'assedio degli Aragonesi nel 1479, la carestia del 1540 ed ogni sorta di calamità naturali come siccità o, al contrario, piogge troppo abbondanti. Si contano inoltre tante e frequenti guarigioni, incluse liberazioni dalle insidie dei demòni che innanzi al Sacro Chiodo si contorcono e fuggono poiché, secondo l'affermazione di S. Ambrogio tale è la «virtù infusa da Dio in tutti i Chiodi della Crocifissione».Un episodio singolare accadde durante l'episcopato di monsignor Niccolò Sciarelli. Il vescovo, di chiare idee gianseniste, si mostrava contrario non solo al culto del Sacro Chiodo, ma in generale a quello di tutte le reliquie. Per questo disprezzava la festa del Sacro Chiodo, così amata dal popolo. Accadde però che nel 1796 proprio durante la celebrazione liturgica della solennità dell'Esaltazione della Santa Croce, in cui tradizionalmente si venerava il Sacro Chiodo, fu colpito da paralisi e fu costretto ad abbandonare il governo della diocesi.LA TRADIZIONEAncora oggi a Colle di Val d'Elsa la seconda (o la terza) domenica di settembre si celebra la festa del Sacro Chiodo che inizia con un triduo di preparazione con Messe e catechesi appropriate. La domenica c'è poi la festa vera e propria con i vespri presso la concattedrale di Colle di Val d'Elsa a cui segue la Santa Messa solenne concelebrata dai sacerdoti del paese e presieduta da un vescovo o un cardinale. Segue la processione organizzata dalla Centuria del Sacro Chiodo fondata nel 1645. Sovrastata da un baldacchino, in mano al celebrante, la sacra reliquia viene portata per le vie della città. Arrivati al baluardo che sovrasta il resto dell'abitato si procede con la benedizione dei quattro angoli della città con il Sacro Chiodo. Poi si torna in duomo e il popolo canta l'inno sacro che inizia così: "Su, cantiamo, cantiamo fratelli, l'inno sacro all'amata Reliquia". Mentre il ritornello invoca: "O dolcissimo pegno d'amor, rendi a Colle propizio il Signor". Nel mentre il Sacro Chiodo viene inserito in un reliquiario di vetro e i fedeli si accostano con devozione baciando la sacra reliquia in segno di venerazione. Ai soli sacerdoti è concesso il privilegio di baciare direttamente il Sacro Chiodo senza il reliquiario di vetro.La Festa del Sacro Chiodo è un'opportunità per i devoti di immergersi in un'atmosfera di contemplazione, mentre si onora una reliquia sac

La notte su Gaza ha il suono sordo dei palazzi che crollano e delle sirene spente: nuovi raid su grattacieli e scuole-rifugio, con almeno 17 morti a Gaza City secondo Al Jazeera; cinque persone, tra cui bambini, sono morte di fame nelle ultime 24 ore, portando il totale a 387. Anche la rete vacilla: tagli ai cavi nel Mar Rosso hanno interrotto l'accesso a internet in parte del Medio Oriente. La Global Sumud Flotilla ripete ciò che dovrebbe essere ovvio nel diritto e nell'umanità: un corridoio umanitario immediato, la protezione integrale di una missione civile e nonviolenta, la fine dell'uso della fame come arma, il riconoscimento dell'illegittimità dell'occupazione. «La nostra è un'iniziativa legale e, in quanto tale, non può essere attaccata né fermata», si legge nella dichiarazione sottoscritta da rappresentanti eletti di 25 Paesi. La Flotilla chiarisce che i training sono selettivi: la lista dei partecipanti sarà definita solo a conclusione della formazione. Fuori dalle carte, c'è la pressione delle piazze. Ieri Roma è scesa di nuovo in strada: l'Ordine dei giornalisti del Lazio ha ricordato i reporter uccisi e chi rischia ogni giorno per raccontare. E non solo Roma: La Spezia ha sfilato per chiedere la pace, Viterbo ha manifestato a sostegno della Flotilla. È la «ciurma di terra» che protegge i naviganti, smonta i calunniatori e costringe i governi a uscire dall'ambiguità. La cronaca del genocidio continua ad aggiornarsi a colpi di cifre e di macerie. La rotta resta semplice: in mare si naviga, a terra si tiene il punto. Non è retorica: è un promemoria per chi ha responsabilità pubbliche e crede di poter temporeggiare. #LaSveglia per La NotiziaDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/la-sveglia-di-giulio-cavalli--3269492/support.

Arturo BernavaIl Viandate EdizioniChiaredizioni"Caro lettore, ti vengo incontro"Se il Lettore non va dall'Editore, l'Editore si mette in viaggio e va dal Lettore.Arturo Bernava e Maria Emery editori dei marchi Il Viandante e Chiaredizioni, hanno ideato un caravan – con la sapiente progettazione dell'interior designer Ruggero Regini e la realizzazione di un artigiano d'eccezione, Manuel Argalia di Fabriano – per raggiungere le diverse piazze italiane, anche le meno privilegiate, andando così incontro ai vecchi e ai nuovi lettori., sosteneva Marcel Proust. Ed è vero!Come è vero che sempre più, nella sovrabbondanza dell'offerta e l'insufficiente capienza anche delle librerie di catena, i lettori giocheranno un ruolo decisivo nel successo di questo titolo o di quel marchio. Quei lettori meno pigri o sprovveduti che sanno quel che vogliono, che non si accontentano della prima risposta, che cercano quel titolo e non un altro.La voglia di andare in contro tendenza ha spinto Arturo Bernava a fare cose diverse dal solito: .Pur avendo affidato i suoi marchi al più potente distributore italiano, ovvero Messaggerie, Bernava non era soddisfatto; nel corso di questi anni ha notato che i gruppi editoriali più forti in Italia hanno anche una propria rete distributiva. .Com'è strutturato il furgone lo spiega Maria Emery che ha seguito le fasi della realizzazione: .Il caravan ospiterà circa un migliaio di titoli. Inizialmente saranno tutti titoli de Il Viandante, Chiaredizioni e Quid (altro marchio del Gruppo), ma gli editori non escludono di ospitare in futuro anche altri marchi. La casa editrice Il Viandante – diretta da Arturo Bernava - nasce nel dicembre del 2015 a cui si affianca, nel 2017, Chiaredizioni, specializzata in editoria per ragazzi. Il gruppo pubblica circa 70 titoli l'anno. Ai due marchi storici si aggiunge da poco anche quello della Quid edizioni, diretto da Maria Emery, già socia del gruppo editoriale Il Viandante – Chiaredizioni, che si sta specializzando in romance e poesia. Il gruppo si avvale della Direzione artistica di Mauro Ortolani, già docente all'Accademia di belle arti di Viterbo.

Full Text of ReadingsWednesday of the Third Week of Easter Lectionary: 275The Saint of the day is Saint Rose VeneriniSaint Rose Venerini's Story Rose was born at Viterbo in Italy, the daughter of a doctor. Following the death of her fiancé she entered a convent, but soon returned home to care for her newly widowed mother. Meanwhile, Rose invited the women of the neighborhood to recite the rosary in her home, forming a sort of sodality with them. As she looked to her future under the spiritual guidance of a Jesuit priest, Rose became convinced that she was called to become a teacher in the world rather than a contemplative nun in a convent. Clearly, she made the right choice: She was a born teacher, and the free school for girls she opened in 1685 was well received. Soon the cardinal invited her to oversee the training of teachers and the administration of schools in his diocese of Montefiascone. As Rose's reputation grew, she was called upon to organize schools in many parts of Italy, including Rome. Her disposition was right for the task as well, for Rose often met considerable opposition but was never deterred. She died in Rome in 1728, where a number of miracles were attributed to her. She was beatified in 1952 and canonized in 2006. The sodality, or group of women she had invited to prayer, was ultimately given the rank of a religious congregation. Today, the so-called Venerini Sisters can be found in the United States and elsewhere, working among Italian immigrants. Reflection Whatever state of life God calls us to, we bring with us an assortment of experiences, interests and gifts—however small they seem to us. Rose's life stands as a reminder that all we are is meant to be put to service wherever we find ourselves. Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Full Text of ReadingsWednesday of the Third Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 319The Saint of the day is Servant of God Brother JuniperServant of God Brother Juniper's Story “Would to God, my brothers, I had a whole forest of such Junipers,” said Francis of this holy friar. We don't know much about Juniper before he joined the friars in 1210. Francis sent him to establish “places” for the friars in Gualdo Tadino and Viterbo. When Saint Clare was dying, Juniper consoled her. He was devoted to the passion of Jesus and was known for his simplicity. Several stories about Juniper in the Little Flowers of St. Francis illustrate his exasperating generosity. Once Juniper was taking care of a sick man who had a craving to eat pig's feet. This helpful friar went to a nearby field, captured a pig and cut off one foot, and then served this meal to the sick man. The owner of the pig was furious and immediately went to Juniper's superior. When Juniper saw his mistake, he apologized profusely. He also ended up talking this angry man into donating the rest of the pig to the friars! Another time Juniper had been commanded to quit giving part of his clothing to the half-naked people he met on the road. Desiring to obey his superior, Juniper once told a man in need that he couldn't give the man his tunic, but he wouldn't prevent the man from taking it either. In time, the friars learned not to leave anything lying around, for Juniper would probably give it away. He died in 1258 and is buried at Ara Coeli Church in Rome. Reflection What can we make of Juniper? He certainly seems to be the first of many Franciscan “characters.” No doubt some of the stories about him have improved considerably in the retelling. Although the stories about Juniper may seem a little quaint, his virtues were not. He was humble because he knew the truth about God, himself, and others. He was patient because he was willing to suffer in his following of Jesus. Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Full Text of ReadingsMemorial of Saint Thomas Aquinas, Priest and Doctor of the Church Lectionary: 318The Saint of the day is Saint Thomas AquinasSaint Thomas Aquinas' Story By universal consent, Thomas Aquinas is the preeminent spokesman of the Catholic tradition of reason and of divine revelation. He is one of the great teachers of the medieval Catholic Church, honored with the titles Doctor of the Church and Angelic Doctor. At five he was given to the Benedictine monastery at Monte Cassino in his parents' hopes that he would choose that way of life and eventually became abbot. In 1239, he was sent to Naples to complete his studies. It was here that he was first attracted to Aristotle's philosophy. By 1243, Thomas abandoned his family's plans for him and joined the Dominicans, much to his mother's dismay. On her order, Thomas was captured by his brother and kept at home for over a year. Once free, he went to Paris and then to Cologne, where he finished his studies with Albert the Great. He held two professorships at Paris, lived at the court of Pope Urban IV, directed the Dominican schools at Rome and Viterbo, combated adversaries of the mendicants, as well as the Averroists, and argued with some Franciscans about Aristotelianism. His greatest contribution to the Catholic Church is his writings. The unity, harmony, and continuity of faith and reason, of revealed and natural human knowledge, pervades his writings. One might expect Thomas, as a man of the gospel, to be an ardent defender of revealed truth. But he was broad enough, deep enough, to see the whole natural order as coming from God the Creator, and to see reason as a divine gift to be highly cherished. The Summa Theologiae, his last and, unfortunately, uncompleted work, deals with the whole of Catholic theology. He stopped work on it after celebrating Mass on December 6, 1273. When asked why he stopped writing, he replied, “I cannot go on…. All that I have written seems to me like so much straw compared to what I have seen and what has been revealed to me.” He died March 7, 1274. Reflection We can look to Thomas Aquinas as a towering example of Catholicism in the sense of broadness, universality, and inclusiveness. We should be determined anew to exercise the divine gift of reason in us, our power to know, learn, and understand. At the same time we should thank God for the gift of his revelation, especially in Jesus Christ.

Angelo Deiana"Storia della signora Cimice e del gatto Giustino"Scatole Parlantiwww.scatoleparlanti.itGiunta agli ultimi giorni della sua lunga vita, un'anziana cimice finisce in una casa dove vive una ragazza, prossima a partorire la sua prima figlia, insieme agli adorati gatti Mumma e Sebastiano. La convivenza dell'insetto con i due felini all'inizio non è affatto facile, anzi: non c'è giorno che non cerchino di ucciderla. Ma la nascita della bambina e un terribile evento occorso al signor Giustino, il re dei gatti del quartiere, cambieranno presto tutto. In un incontro continuo, divertente ed emozionante tra specie diverse, questa favola racconta alcune facce dell'amore, l'importanza dell'altro e quel vuoto che spesso attraversa i più giovani, restituendo importanti spunti di riflessione.Angelo Deiana è nato nel 1991 e vive a Viterbo. Laureato in Filologia moderna, è insegnante di ruolo in materie letterarie alle scuole superiori. È responsabile del programma e moderatore dell'Emporio Letterario di Pienza e degli eventi Caffeina.

Pietro Cecchetti"L'abbraccio delle parole"Dialoghi tra un adulto e un bambinoScatole Parlantiwww.scatoleparlanti.itL'abbraccio delle parole è un libro costruito attorno a una serie di ipotetici dialoghi tra adulti e bambini che vuole sia offrire ai lettori spunti concreti di psicologia e educazione, sia proporre riflessioni e approfondimenti di più ampio respiro sulla relazione tra mondo adulto e mondo bambino. Le tematiche trattate nel testo spaziano su temi rilevanti per l'età evolutiva, dall'autonomia alla sicurezza emotiva, dallo sviluppo dell'identità alle relazioni familiari e vengono affrontate attraverso un approccio originale con l'obiettivo di espandere gli orizzonti dell'adulto e consentirgli di parlare in modo libero e personale con il bambino. I bambini, come il libro intende mettere in luce, hanno bisogno di adulti che siano disposti a dialogare con loro.“Pietro Cecchetti, in questi suoi dialoghi, è come se cercasse sempre di mostrare quanto le parole dei bambini molte volte ci pungano, ci spiazzino, ci facciano inciampare e, proprio per questo, possiedano la capacità di illuminare di luce nuova e trasversale il nostro pensiero e il nostro quotidiano. Le tante bambine e bambini che vengono evocati nei diversi capitoli, anche se ‘inventati' dall'autore, sono qui a ricordarci che la comprensione di noi stessi è enormemente impoverita se non allenata da un contatto profondo e continuo con l'infanzia”. (dalla prefazione di Franco Lorenzoni)Pietro Cecchetti è nato e vive a Viterbo. Psicologo e psicoterapeuta, dedica da anni il suo lavoro al benessere psicologico di adulti, bambini, coppie e famiglie. Oltre alla clinica si occupa di formazione con un'attenzione particolare alla prima infanzia. Nel 2021 ha pubblicato il libro Una certa idea di bambino, un testo di psicologia dello sviluppo rivolto agli adulti e dedicato alla fascia 0-6 anni, costruito a partire da piccoli momenti di vita quotidiana e illustrato da Elisa Ansuini.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

The main goal of the Society of Saint Pius X is to preserve the Catholic Faith in its fullness and purity, to teach its truths, and to diffuse its virtues, especially through the Roman Catholic priesthood. Authentic spiritual life, the sacraments, and the traditional liturgy are its primary means of bringing this life of grace to souls.

Full Text of ReadingsWednesday of the Twenty-second Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 433The Saint of the day is Saint Rose of ViterboSaint Rose of Viterbo’s Story Even as a child, Rose had a great desire to pray and to aid the poor. While still very young, she began a life of penance in her parents' house. She was as generous to the poor as she was strict with herself. At the age of 10, she became a Secular Franciscan and soon began preaching in the streets about sin and the sufferings of Jesus. Viterbo, her native city, was then in revolt against the pope. When Rose took the pope's side against the emperor, she and her family were exiled from the city. When the pope's side won in Viterbo, Rose was allowed to return. Her attempt at age 15 to found a religious community failed, and she returned to a life of prayer and penance in her father's home, where she died in 1251. Rose was canonized in 1457. Reflection The list of Franciscan saints seems to have quite a few men and women who accomplished nothing very extraordinary. Rose is one of them. She did not influence popes and kings, did not multiply bread for the hungry, and never established the religious order of her dreams. But she made a place in her life for God's grace, and like Saint Francis before her, saw death as the gateway to new life.

Questa settimana, siamo onorate di avere con noi Aurora, attivista transfemminista, per un episodio di grande importanza. Affronteremo il grave problema della transfobia in Italia, sia online che offline. Discuteremo dell'onda di odio scatenata dopo le dichiarazioni contro la pugile algerina Imane Khelif e dell'orrendo attacco recente a Viterbo, dove due ragazze transgender sono state picchiate da dieci persone. Questo tragico evento è una drammatica dimostrazione della violenza e della transfobia che permeano la nostra società. Aurora condividerà senza filtri la sua esperienza, offrendo una panoramica cruda sulla transfobia e sulla morbosa curiosità dei media italiani verso le vite private e i corpi delle atlete olimpiche. Un enorme grazie ad Aurora per essersi aperta con noi e per il suo coraggio nel trattare questi temi così delicati.

When the draft majority decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health was leaked, the media, public officials, and scholars focused on the overturning of Roe v. Wade. They noted Justice Alito's strident tone and radical use of originalism to eliminate constitutional protection for reproductive rights. My guest today has written a book that asks us to also notice over 140 footnotes in the majority opinion and dissent. Are these notes part of the law? In his new book, The Supreme Court Footnote: A Surprising History (NYU Press, 2024), Dr. Peter Charles Hoffer insists that these notes are significant. The footnotes reveal the justices' beliefs about the Constitution's essence, highlight their controversial reasoning, and expose “vastly different interpretations of the role of Supreme Court Justice.” Using a comprehensive qualitative analysis, The Supreme Court Footnote, offers a history of the evolution of footnotes in US Supreme Court opinions and a thoughtful set of case studies to reveal the particular ways that the footnote has affected Supreme Court decisions. Hoffer argues that justices alter the course of history through their decisions and the footnote is the way in which they push their own understanding of the Constitution. Eight case studies show how the footnote has evolved over time. He begins with Chisholm v. Georgia in 1792 and ends with Dobbs v. Jackson case in 2022. Using Dred Scott, Viterbo v. Friedlander, Muller v. Oregon, United States v. Carolene Products, Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, and District of Columbia v. Heller, Hoffer demonstrates how the footnotes reflect the changing role of the Supreme Court justice and the manner in which they interpret the Constitution. Dr. Hoffer looks back in order to look forward. He offers a study of the footnote that is relevant to contemporary debates over the Supreme Court, methods of interpretation, and politics. Dr. Peter Charles Hoffer is Distinguished Research Professor of History at the University of Georgia. Hoffer went to University of Rochester and Harvard and has taught at Ohio State, Notre Dame, and UGA (since 1978). He has written books on the Supreme Court, the Federal Court System, infanticide, impeachment, abortion, early American history, slave rebellions, and historical methods. During the podcast, we mentioned: Anthony Grafton's The Footnote: A Curious History (Harvard, 1999) My NBN conversation with Laura F. Edward's on her book (The People and their Peace), originalism and domestic violence The University of Kansas's Landmark Law Series Peter's book Reading Law Forward: The Making of a Democratic Jurisprudence from John Marshall to Stephen G. Breyer (University of Kansas, 2023) The June 2024 recording of Justices Roberts and Alito on godliness Susan's “Sensitive Places?: How Gender Unmasks the Myth of Originalism in District of Columbia v.

Send us a Text Message.Embark with Maggie Workman and me on a voyage through time as we trace our Italian lineages from the cobblestone streets of Onano, Viterbo to the bustling avenues of America. Our conversation meanders through generational tales that piece together a mosaic of our Italian-American identities, blending personal experiences with the broader narrative of Italian migration. The echoes of our ancestors' footsteps resonate in this episode, as Maggie delves into her genealogical discoveries and I share my Neapolitan legacy, which extend beyond the well-trodden paths of New York to the often-forgotten Italian enclaves of Ohio.Ever wondered what it takes to plan a wedding amidst the rustic charm of Italy, or how to reclaim a piece of your heritage through citizenship? The adventure doesn't stop at historical recounts; we also navigate the present-day pursuit of roots – from celebrating love in ancestral towns to untangling the bureaucratic labyrinth for official records. The heartwarming assistance from local Italian mayors, the spontaneous kinship with townsfolk, and the pride in preserving our lineage, all culminate in a narrative that speaks to the romantic and the realist alike.The episode closes on a poignant note, with an account of Maggie's serendipitous meeting with a woman dedicated to chronicling emigrant family sagas. It's a testament to the universal longing to understand where we come from and the importance of safeguarding these legacies. As Maggie and I ponder over the value of such stories, we extend an olive branch to anyone keen on exploring their own histories, emphasizing the profound impact these journeys can have on our sense of self and community. Join us for a heartfelt tribute to Italian roots that not only define our past but continue to shape our present.Support the Show.Purchase my book "Farmers and Nobles" here or at Amazon.
Thursday of the Seventh Week in Ordinary Time Saint of the Day: St. Crispin of Viterbo,1668-1750; studied at the Jesuit college, and became a shoemaker; joined the Franciscan Capuchins at age 25, where he served as gardener and cook, calling himself "the little beast of burden of the Capuchins"; through his intercession, there were many miraculous cures during a pandemic; he was also venerated for his prophecies and spiritual wisdom Office of Readings and Morning Prayer for 5/23/24 Gospel: Mark 9:41-50
Full Text of ReadingsTuesday of the Sixth Week of Easter Lectionary: 292The Saint of the day is Saint Rose VeneriniSaint Rose Venerini's Story Rose was born at Viterbo in Italy, the daughter of a doctor. Following the death of her fiancé she entered a convent, but soon returned home to care for her newly widowed mother. Meanwhile, Rose invited the women of the neighborhood to recite the rosary in her home, forming a sort of sodality with them. As she looked to her future under the spiritual guidance of a Jesuit priest, Rose became convinced that she was called to become a teacher in the world rather than a contemplative nun in a convent. Clearly, she made the right choice: She was a born teacher, and the free school for girls she opened in 1685 was well received. Soon the cardinal invited her to oversee the training of teachers and the administration of schools in his diocese of Montefiascone. As Rose's reputation grew, she was called upon to organize schools in many parts of Italy, including Rome. Her disposition was right for the task as well, for Rose often met considerable opposition but was never deterred. She died in Rome in 1728, where a number of miracles were attributed to her. She was beatified in 1952 and canonized in 2006. The sodality, or group of women she had invited to prayer, was ultimately given the rank of a religious congregation. Today, the so-called Venerini Sisters can be found in the United States and elsewhere, working among Italian immigrants. Reflection Whatever state of life God calls us to, we bring with us an assortment of experiences, interests and gifts—however small they seem to us. Rose's life stands as a reminder that all we are is meant to be put to service wherever we find ourselves. Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Full Text of ReadingsMonday of the Fourth Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 323The Saint of the day is Servant of God Brother JuniperServant of God Brother Juniper's Story “Would to God, my brothers, I had a whole forest of such Junipers,” said Francis of this holy friar. We don't know much about Juniper before he joined the friars in 1210. Francis sent him to establish “places” for the friars in Gualdo Tadino and Viterbo. When Saint Clare was dying, Juniper consoled her. He was devoted to the passion of Jesus and was known for his simplicity. Several stories about Juniper in the Little Flowers of St. Francis illustrate his exasperating generosity. Once Juniper was taking care of a sick man who had a craving to eat pig's feet. This helpful friar went to a nearby field, captured a pig and cut off one foot, and then served this meal to the sick man. The owner of the pig was furious and immediately went to Juniper's superior. When Juniper saw his mistake, he apologized profusely. He also ended up talking this angry man into donating the rest of the pig to the friars! Another time Juniper had been commanded to quit giving part of his clothing to the half-naked people he met on the road. Desiring to obey his superior, Juniper once told a man in need that he couldn't give the man his tunic, but he wouldn't prevent the man from taking it either. In time, the friars learned not to leave anything lying around, for Juniper would probably give it away. He died in 1258 and is buried at Ara Coeli Church in Rome. Reflection What can we make of Juniper? He certainly seems to be the first of many Franciscan “characters.” No doubt some of the stories about him have improved considerably in the retelling. Although the stories about Juniper may seem a little quaint, his virtues were not. He was humble because he knew the truth about God, himself, and others. He was patient because he was willing to suffer in his following of Jesus. Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media
Full Text of ReadingsFourth Sunday in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 71The Saint of the day is Saint Thomas AquinasSaint Thomas Aquinas' Story By universal consent, Thomas Aquinas is the preeminent spokesman of the Catholic tradition of reason and of divine revelation. He is one of the great teachers of the medieval Catholic Church, honored with the titles Doctor of the Church and Angelic Doctor. At five he was given to the Benedictine monastery at Monte Cassino in his parents' hopes that he would choose that way of life and eventually became abbot. In 1239, he was sent to Naples to complete his studies. It was here that he was first attracted to Aristotle's philosophy. By 1243, Thomas abandoned his family's plans for him and joined the Dominicans, much to his mother's dismay. On her order, Thomas was captured by his brother and kept at home for over a year. Once free, he went to Paris and then to Cologne, where he finished his studies with Albert the Great. He held two professorships at Paris, lived at the court of Pope Urban IV, directed the Dominican schools at Rome and Viterbo, combated adversaries of the mendicants, as well as the Averroists, and argued with some Franciscans about Aristotelianism. His greatest contribution to the Catholic Church is his writings. The unity, harmony, and continuity of faith and reason, of revealed and natural human knowledge, pervades his writings. One might expect Thomas, as a man of the gospel, to be an ardent defender of revealed truth. But he was broad enough, deep enough, to see the whole natural order as coming from God the Creator, and to see reason as a divine gift to be highly cherished. The Summa Theologiae, his last and, unfortunately, uncompleted work, deals with the whole of Catholic theology. He stopped work on it after celebrating Mass on December 6, 1273. When asked why he stopped writing, he replied, “I cannot go on…. All that I have written seems to me like so much straw compared to what I have seen and what has been revealed to me.” He died March 7, 1274. Reflection We can look to Thomas Aquinas as a towering example of Catholicism in the sense of broadness, universality, and inclusiveness. We should be determined anew to exercise the divine gift of reason in us, our power to know, learn, and understand. At the same time we should thank God for the gift of his revelation, especially in Jesus Christ.
