Download or read book Religion Italian Style written by Franco Garelli and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Italy’s traditional subcultures - Communist, Socialist, Liberal, Republican, Right-wing - have largely dissolved and yet Catholics have retained their vitality and solidity. How can the vast majority of Italians continue to maintain some connection with Catholicism? How much is the Italian situation influenced by the closeness of the Vatican? Examining the religious condition of contemporary Italy, Religion Italian Style argues that the relationship between religion and society in Italy has unique characteristics when compared with what is happening in other European Catholic Countries. Exploring key topics and religious trends which question how the population feel - from the laity and the role of religions in the public sphere, to moral debates, forms of religious pluralism, and new spiritualities - this book questions how these affect religious life, and how intricately religion is interwoven with the nation’s fabric and the dynamics of the whole society.

Little by little, English and German works on modern religious views were translated and put on sale in the chief book-stores of Rome. While great care has been observed that heretical literature be kept from the reach of the priests, ideas and views once set in motion cannot be completely smothered. The results of modern Biblical criticism have found their way into the hands of not only the cultured laity but also the cultured prelates. One of the evident results of Protestantism in Italy has been the publication of the Gospels and the Book of Acts in the Italian language by the Society of St. Gerolamo, which was organized for that special purpose within the Roman Church itself. Several popes prior to 1889 had declared it to be a sin for the laity to read the Bible. As late as 1869, persons were arrested within the papal states for presuming to read the Bible, even in family worship. Travelers were searched as they entered Rome, and if they possessed Bibles, the books were confiscated. Both Pope Pius ix and Leo xiii declared ex cathedra that it was unlawful for Catholics to read the Bible. But in 1898 Leo xiii sanctioned the establishment of the Society of San Gerolamo, for the above-mentioned purpose, and in the preface of that publication each Catholic is promised one hundred days' indulgence if he reads the gospel each day. What brought about the change in attitude? It certainly was not the conviction that the Gospels are an indispensable help to the religious life. The change was caused by the Protestant propaganda, the preaching in season and out of season that the preachers were not proclaiming their own thoughts but the word of God. With time this had its impression. Faithful Romanists insisted on having the...

Download or read book The Catholic School written by Edoardo Albinati and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2019-08-13 with total page 1356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A semiautobiographical coming-of-age story, framed by the harrowing 1975 Circeo massacre Edoardo Albinati’s The Catholic School, the winner of Italy’s most prestigious award, The Strega Prize, is a powerful investigation of the heart and soul of contemporary Italy. Three well-off young men—former students at Rome’s prestigious all-boys Catholic high school San Leone Magno—brutally tortured, raped, and murdered two young women in 1975. The event, which came to be known as the Circeo massacre, shocked and captivated the country, exposing the violence and dark underbelly of the upper middle class at a moment when the traditional structures of family and religion were seen as under threat. It is this environment, the halls of San Leone Magno in the late 1960s and the 1970s, that Edoardo Albinati takes as his subject. His experience at the school, reflections on his adolescence, and thoughts on the forces that produced contemporary Italy are painstakingly and thoughtfully rendered, producing a remarkable blend of memoir, coming-of-age novel, and true-crime story. Along with indelible portraits of his teachers and fellow classmates—the charming Arbus, the literature teacher Cosmos, and his only Fascist friend, Max—Albinati also gives us his nuanced reflections on the legacy of abuse, the Italian bourgeoisie, and the relationship between sex, violence, and masculinity.
