    Vatican II, Hörbuch, Digital, 289min
    Join celebrated Church historian John O'Malley in exploring the biggest meeting in the history of the world. The Second Vatican Council concluded 50 years ago, but it is a livelier topic today than it has been for decades. Basic questions are being asked. What did the Council do? Was it properly implemented? Are its decisions being systematically "rolled back"? Good questions, but to answer them good information is needed. Such information is precisely what these 12 insightful lectures provide. You will discover the story of the Council from its convocation by Pope John XXIII in 1959 to its conclusion in 1965. They reveal a dramatic clash between a large majority (85% to 90%) and a small but determined minority. Why did these two groups take their positions so passionately, who were their protagonists, and how did Pope John XXIII and Pope Paul VI respond? Explore the issues that rocked the Council. How should the Church deal with non-Christian religions, such as Islam? What is the true nature of the liturgy? How is the Church to deal with the "new churches" emerging in Africa and Asia? Is freedom to choose one's religion compatible with Catholicism? Is there any limit to the authority of the Roman Curia? Why did Pope Paul VI remove certain topics from the agenda? These lectures will give you the orientation you need to understand one of the most important events of the 20th century, to appreciate the problems it faced, and to grapple with the questions being asked about it (and the Catholic Church) today.

    Merchants in the Temple: Inside Pope Francis's Secret Battle Against Corruption in the Vatican , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 488min
    From a best-selling author with unprecedented access to Pope Francis, an investigative look at the recent financial scandals at the highest levels of the Vatican. A veritable war is waging in the church: On one side there is Pope Francis' strong message for one church of the poor and all; on the other there is the old Curia, with its endless enemies, and the old and new lobbies struggling to preserve their not-so-Christian privileges. The old guard do not back down; they are ready to use all means necessary to stay in control and continue the immoral way they conduct their business. They resist reforms sought by Pope Francis and seek to delegitimize their opponents, to isolate those who want to eliminate corruption. It's a war that will determine the future of the church. And if he loses the battle against secular interests and blackmail, Pope Francis could resign, much like his predecessor. Based on confidential information - including top-secret documents from inside the Vatican and actual transcripts of Pope Francis' admonishments to the papal court about the lack of financial oversight and responsibility - Merchants in the Temple illustrates all the undercover work conducted by the Pope since his election and shows the listener who his real enemies are. It reveals the instruments Francis is using to reform the Vatican and rid it, once and for all, of the overwhelming corruption traditionally encrusted in the Roman Catholic Church. Merchants in the Temple is a startling book that will shock every listener. It's a story worthy of a Dan Brown novel, with its electrifying details of the trickery and scheming against the papacy - except that it is real. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: P. J. Ochlan.

    Scritti su Avvenire (eBook, ePUB)
    A un anno dall'improvvisa scomparsa del Professor Giuseppe Dalla Torre, non pochi hanno ripercorso i suoi prestigiosi incarichi nell'Università, nella comunità accademica italiana e internazionale, nella Curia romana e nello Stato della Città del Vaticano, e ne hanno ricordato le qualità intellettuali e umane nonché la sterminata produzione scientifica. C'è tuttavia un profilo della sua versatile personalità che forse è rimasto in ombra: quello legato alla sua attività giornalistica, invero assai protratta e fertilissima. Probabilmente a causa del pregiudizio per il quale scrivere sui giornali o interfacciarsi con i mass media, per l'approccio più semplice e divulgativo con cui le materie vengono affrontate, rientri in una sorta di dimessa 'arte minore' cui i docenti si dedicano a tempo perso: quasi un leggero diversivo rispetto alla più scrupolosa e severa stesura di testi rigorosamente scientifici. Per converso Giuseppe Dalla Torre, sin dalla giovinezza, mai ha disdegnato di applicarsi all'elaborazione di articoli giornalistici, in particolare per il quotidiano Avvenire: scendendo dalla cattedra universitaria e rivolgendosi con immediatezza al lettore della testata di ispirazione cattolica, per illustrare, con linearità logica e chiarezza concettuale, l'autentica sostanza dei problemi trattati in tutti i loro risvolti, specie giuridici, più controversi. Attraverso la lettura di questi articoli su argomenti quanto mai eterogenei - sintetici e quasi lapidari, come postulato dal genere letterario - emerge l'avvincente itinerario ultratrentennale della vivace militanza, nella compagine ecclesiale e nella società civile, di un giurista cattolico che non ha mai, anche nelle condizioni di più aspro scontro su differenti fronti, abdicato al suo munus - diremmo canonisticamente - genuinamente laicale di animazione cristiana delle realtà temporali, secondo il magistero più vivido del Vaticano II. Il volume, riproponendo molti di tali interventi e corredandoli di brevi analisi di suoi allievi, diretti e indiretti, auspica di dar conto di questo aspetto sinora poco indagato, e invece così pregnante, della sua opera.
