Questo secondo libro presenta una tale densità di soggetti che richiederebbe una lunga spiegazione introduttiva; gli autori invece propongono una soluzione diversa: mettere insieme le note dell’apparato storico e tutte le spiegazioni che servono a inquadrare il testo nel suo tempo e nei suoi luoghi così da rendere il testo molto più comprensibile e facilitare il compito del lettore.

Due fatti hanno dato origine al presente studio: l’apertura alla consultazione degli studiosi della documentazione sul Pontificato di Leone XIII, che si trova nell’archivio della Sacra Congregazione per gli Affari Straordinari della Chiesa, e la donazione ai salesiani delle lettere di Matias Alonso Criado a Lasagna, fatta dalla famiglia di quel console del Paraguay in Montevideo.

Subito all’inizio del viaggio in America, una tremenda burrasca si era abbattuta sull’Atlantico Nord. Passati quei giorni di sofferenza e di timore, D. Lasagna promise di cuore al Signore: «Tutta la nostra vita, forze, fatiche, ingegno, cuore, tutto d’ora innanti sarà per Lui, e per Lui solo». E non furono soltanto parole. Lo zelo con cui il novello Direttore si lanciò al lavoro nel collegio Pio di Villa Colón fu tale che lo stesso Ispettore, D. Francesco Bodrato, dovette intervenire per moderarne l’entusiasmo.

Jaques Gadille – “Missions salésiennes et inculturation” in “Ricerche storiche salesiane”

L’attuale importante espansione missionaria della congregazione salesiana offre un campo privilegiato per verificare l’ipotesi presentata da Guy Avanzini di una “diffusione sempre più ampia” dei modelli educativi “pre-testati” a Torino da parte di Giovanni Bosco, e di apprezzarne le più o meno flessibilità di adattamento nei più diversi contesti culturali. Questa analisi inizierà necessariamente da un ricordo molto sommario della vocazione missionaria della congregazione, voluta dal suo fondatore.

Nel 1876, D. Giovanni Cagliero accettava di aprire il Collegio Pio a Villa Colon, nei pressi di Montevideo. A dirigere questo collegio don Bosco inviava il giovane sacerdote Luigi Lasagna, uomo di grandi vedute, intraprendente e che sapeva unire l’obbedienza cosciente e sofferta all’originalità delle idee e alla costanza nel battere sentieri nuovi.

Michael Chang – “A concise history of the salesian corean missions” in “The beginning of the Salesian presence in east Asia”.

Don Bosco was a man who dreamed dreams. His dreams became reality and are still becoming reality. A lot of people think that he had a dream that is connected with the Korean province. The dream concerns the evangelization of Northeast Asia. If we look at the historical records that we have in our possession, the first Salesian confrere to set foot on Korean soil was the “Don Bosco of the East”, the Eastern Interpretation of Don Bosco’s Preventive System, the Venerable, Fr. Vincenzo Cimatti. ln 1934, he went to Manchuria to give a concert. At the same time he visited Korea, giving a concert in four cities. After that Fr. Cimatti himself as Provincial began to form missionaries in Japan to send to Korea. The first Salesians to enter Korea were the fruits of these endeavors.

The aim of the Seminar is to present the beginnings of the Salesian Presence in East Asia and Oceania. The Philippines, as part of this Salesian Region, has also its beginnings and origins from the first Salesian Presence in East Asia: China. For in the two times that the Salesians started to root themselves in the Philippines, they came from China to negotiate and to concretise what they negotiated.

Up to the present day, officially the Salesians of Vietnam has had a history of over 52 years. A history that is long, as well as epic and fruitful enough to draw admiration from many, as well as attention of those who are interested in Salesian history, as we are here in these days. Unluckily, because of the social and political turmoil of the country, most of the documents had been destroyed or lost, which certainly renders the writing down this history become a very challenging task. it is my task to present to you a short historical account of the first period of this glorious history. The beginning of the Salesian Work in Vetnam, of which, in using biblical expression, I would dare to give a subtitle: The Patriarchal story and the Exodus. The account that my presentation is dealing with covers a time-span of about 25 years, roughly from 1930 to 1955.

Amador Anjos – “The first salesians in east Timor: 1927-1929” in “The beginning of the Salesian presence in east Asia”.

The purpose of this work is to show the process of the first presence of the Salesians in East Timor, between 1927 and 1929. It is a meteoric presence for it did not last two whole years and it is also intriguing due to questions that rose. In fact, how is it possible that the Salesians decided to abandon the Island shortly after a year and a half, when the Salesians had accepted the administration of a school of arts and crafts existing already in Dili (capital of the territory) – after having celebrated a contract with the Bishop of Macau, Josè da Costa Nunes, for a sexennium – what important reasons led the Major Superiors to take such a decision before the bilateral contract celebrated in January 1927 come to an end?

In the years 1924-25, the Salesian Congregation was preparing to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Salesian missions and to this purpose some qualified confreres were giving talks on Salesian Missions, in parishes, schools, to cooperators and alumni to animate them about the missionary work and to get their support. On the 25h of February 1924,Msgr. Dante Munerati, the Salesian Procurator in Rome, wrote a letter to inform the Superiors in Turin that he had received an unofficial note from His Excellency Cardinal Van Rossum, Prefect of the Congregation of Propaganda Fide, saying that he would like to entrust a new mission in the Kingdom of Siam to the Salesians.

It deals specially with the mail correspondence. The originals are found according to the container, or in the Vatican Archives, or in the Central Salesian Archives of Rome (ASC) or in the archive of the China Province in Hong Kong or in the said Cimatti Museum.
