Pietro Ricaldone – “Circa la prossima Canonizzazione del Beato Don Bosco – Strenna per il 1934” in “Atti del Capitolo Superiore”

Belle, indimenticabili giornate furono il 19 novembre e il 3 dicembre in cui venivano letti i due Decreti. Nel primo la Suprema Autorità Apostolica riconosceva, autenticava e proclamava la voce dei miracoli, attestante da parte di Dio la santità del nostro Beato Padre; con l’altro poi dalla medesima Autorità si apriva definitivamente la via alla solenne Canonizzazione.  Continue reading “Pietro Ricaldone – “Circa la prossima Canonizzazione del Beato Don Bosco – Strenna per il 1934” in “Atti del Capitolo Superiore””

Si coglie pure l’opera decisiva di don Bosco che vede finalmente realizzato il suo progetto di contribuire ad educare cristianamente le ragazze del popolo.

Carlo Loots – “Being a guide and companion for young people today” in “Journal of salesian studies”

The article addresses the challenge of updating Don Bosco’s preventive system, centred on the accompaniment of the young, to make it congruent with the present day.

Wim Collin – “My beloved son…Accompaniment by Don Bosco in the letters to some young people” in “Journal of salesian studies”

Don Bosco’s correspondence is difficult to categorise because of the varied nature of the letters. Many were written by Don Bosco or his secretaries, with the latter often signing on his behalf. The considerable amount of incoming letters, combined with Don Bosco’s declining health in recent years, led to this practice. Continue reading “Wim Collin – “My beloved son…Accompaniment by Don Bosco in the letters to some young people” in “Journal of salesian studies””

Guglielmo Malizia – “Don Bosco’s Peace Culture a theory-based study of his response to conflicts” in “Journal of salesian studies”

The text reflects on the recent war situation in Europe, which followed the Russian invasion of Ukraine on 23 February. The war, which seemed impossible to occur after 70 years of peace, has shattered this illusion, threatening to bring back massacres, destruction and forced exoduses. The lack of signs of imminent peace is worrying, especially considering the 2016 UN Declaration on the Right to Peace. Continue reading “Guglielmo Malizia – “Don Bosco’s Peace Culture a theory-based study of his response to conflicts” in “Journal of salesian studies””
