El presente trabajo comprende el estudio de la labor salesiana en el Ecuador durante el periodo histórico desde 1888, fecha de la llegada de los salesianos en el pais, hasta 1938, fecha en que los salesianos empiezan un nuevo periodo de consolidación. A este primer periodo lo podriamos llamar de fundación o iniciación de la obra. Este periodo de la obra salesiana coincide con el periodo histórico del pais, llamado el del liberalismo y comprende cincuenta anos.

Albert Druart – “Les origines des oeuvres salésiennes en Belgique (1891-1914)” in “Salesianum”

Le 15 mai 1891, Leon XIII publiait l ’encyclique Rerum Novarum, premier document fondamental de l ’Eglise sur la condition ouvrière. Quelques mois plus tard, le 8 décembre 1891, à la demande de l’évèque de Liège, V.-J. Doutreloux, les Salésiens de Don Bosco ouvraient leur première maison en Belgique. Il y a plus qu’une coincidence entre ces deux événements.

La Famiglia Salesiana della città di San Severo, guidata dalle Figlie di Maria Ausiliatrice, ha voluto celebrare la presenza educativa salesiana nella provincia di Foggia, prendendo spunto da un ideale centenario dell’opera della congregazione salesiana in San Severo, che ha avuto inizio nel 1905, ma che in realtà si è conclusa nel 1969.

As in the earlier article, so also in the present one, besides transcribing and translating pertinent archival documents (chiefly letters), I will try to provide an essential historical framework designed to make the sequence intelligible.

Recently the Central Salesian Archives released the files of the Rua rectorate on some 1,750 microfiches. This boon has made archival research in that rectorate possible even for students residing away from the Central Archives.

Over one hundred years ago, on November 28, 1898, three Salesians arrived in New York to initiate a Salesian apostolate among the Italian immigrants of that metropolis. In March of the previous year four of their confreres had undertaken a similar mission in San Francisco.

Rachele Lanfranchi – “I convitti per operaie affidati alle Figlie di Maria Ausiliatrice da «semplice albergo» a «case di educazione»” in “L’educazione salesiana dal 1880 al 1922. Istanze ed attuazioni in diversi contesti”

I convitti per giovani operaie diretti dalle FMA, tra altre religiose, sono stati risposta ad un’esigenza fondamentalmente educativa tra la fine dell’800 e la prima metà del ’900. Superiori e Superiore hanno avvertito l’urgenza di questa opera, proprio perché rivolta a giovani del ceto popolare, anche minorenni, indifese e per di più lontane dalle famiglie, con un’istruzione minima, la necessità di lavorare in condizioni disagiate.

Paul Formosa – “Historical sketch of the oratory of Don Bosco in Malta” in “Journal of Salesian Studies”

In this article, I will attempt to trace how Don Bosco’s original experience was translated in such a way that his work could be established in Malta – an island country in the Mediterranean with a distinct tradition and culture from that in which the Salesian story first began and developed in Turin, Italy. I will place special emphasis on the Salesian Oratory, Sliema.

Sono diverse le ragioni per le quali un progetto educativo si traduce in un insuccesso. A volte sono le aspettative disattese che ne determinano la chiusura; oppure, come nel caso del Collegio salesiano S. Rocco di Sondrio, viene deciso, seppur in modo sofferto, di optare per un indirizzo educativo differente.

Thomas Koshy – “The relevance of Don Bosco’s preventive system of education in the context of the young at risk in India” in “Con Don Bosco educatori dei giovani del nostro tempo”



click to download pdf

On 25th January 2015, Don Bosco Navajeevan (A home for street children/Young at Risk) in Hyderabad received 230 young boys. They were rescued by the police who raided bangle-making units in the Old City in Hyderabad. The children, aged between 8 and 18, had been held as bonded labour. This is only the proverbial tip of the iceberg. Mr. Satyarthi, the Nobel Prize laureate, says that the Indian cities have a lot more hidden child labourers working under near-slavery conditions. What is worse, the children did not quite appreciate their release from “child labour” and being sent to their home states: Bihar and West Bengal; many of them said that they would return to the same work later.

Morand Wirth – Don Bosco et les salésiens: cent cinquante ans d’histoire



click to download pdf

Francis Desramaut dans la “Préface” du livre, exprime le besoin d’un ouvrage facile d’accès mais solide en contenu, car bien que de nombreuses histoires sur le fondateur des Salésiens existent, celles concernant son œuvre font défaut. Il mentionne un recueil documenté en italien mais jugé trop long et incomplet. L’auteur s’inspire d’une brochure française précédente pour créer un livre complet et agréable à lire, couvrant l’histoire des Salésiens depuis la naissance de Jean Bosco en 1815 jusqu’au chapitre général de 1965.

Francis Desramaut – Don Bosco and the spiritual life



click to download pdf

Don Bosco (1815-1888) was the acrobat-saint, priest, journalist, and apostle of poor and abandoned youth. But was he also a man of the spiritual life, and did he leave a
spiritual heritage? Yes, says Father Francis Desramaut. And in some ways it is a heritage very like that of our own age, stirred and renewed by the Second Vatican Council. This book, one of the first to deal with Don Bosco’s spirituality, is drawn from sources which were largely unknown or ignored by earlier authors. It presents a Don Bosco free of fanfare, rooted in the tradition o f the great spiritual masters, creative in view of his own times.
