Si tratta di una biografia ben documentata, costruita in grande parte sulle deposizioni del processo di beatificazione e canonizzazione. In qualità di biografo e vice postulatore della causa di beatificazione di Maria Domenica Mazzarello Ferdinando Maccono ebbe l’opportunità di accostare quasi tutte le fonti relative ad essa. Dal 1910 in poi don Maccono aveva consultato molti parenti, coetanei, ex-allieve del laboratorio e dell’oratorio e quasi tutte le FMA che convissero con MM a Mornese e a Nizza Monferrato, comprese le missionarie delle prime tre spedizioni missionarie. Per la qualità del lavoro e della documentazione riportata, tale biografia può essere qualificata a tutti gli effetti come biografia-fonte per la conoscenza della vita e spiritualità di santa Maria Domenica Mazzarello.

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?

clicca per scaricare il pdf

Nel 1906 le Superiore delle Figlie di Maria Ausiliatrice affidarono a Giovanni Battista Francesia   l’incarico di scrivere una biografia su Maria Domenica Mazzarello. Lo scopo che l’Autore si prefisse fu quello di presentare alle suore che non ebbero la fortuna di conoscere la loro prima Superiora facendola emergere come modello di vera Figlia di Maria Ausiliatrice. Le fonti utilizzate dall’Autore sono le testimonianze di quanti conobbero Maria Domenica, (soprattutto delle suore, di Giovanni Cagliero e di Giacomo Costamagna), i ricordi personali (egli infatti aveva avuto due incontri con sr. Maria Domenica Mazzarello: a Mornese nell’ottobre 1864 e a Genova il 13 novembre 1878), la cronaca generale dell’Istituto delle FMA, alcune lettere della Santa e alle pubblicazioni di Giovanni Battista Lemoyne.
