      Spiritualità e Bibbia

      by Gianfranco Ravasi

      An essay to approach the Bible as a source for an authentic spiritual life; a book that gives a biblical backing to the present revival of spirituality, avoiding any deviations or partiality.The author follows here two paths: first, he examines the Old and the New Testaments, focusing especially on the prophets, the psalms, Job, the Song of Songs, and the beatitudes. With the second path, card. Ravasi outlines a concise map of spirituality in the Scriptures, thus composing a unitary message.The final outcome is not only a guide to mysticism, but also an essential synthesis of biblical theology.

      Maschilità in questione

      Sguardi sulla figura di san Giuseppe

      by Antonio Autiero, Marinella Perroni

      Joseph occupies a marginal place inside the theological discourse, unlike Mary. Yet, he also reflects important issues of our time, linked to the debate on identity, relationships and functions of being in the world as men and women, and in terms of living in a church made up of men and women. Freed from hagiographic stereotypes and strictly apologetic purposes, Joseph becomes the emblem of a masculinity that is now more than ever in question: what does it mean for a male to feel himself as a subject, as a person? What does it mean to share a journey of substantial relationships and to generate life together? What does it mean to take care of the world, in the plurality of its possible expressions (politics, profession, civil commitment)? This book starts an original path, expression of the fruitful intertwining that theology intends to establish with other cultural approaches. It discloses a set of “looks” – historical, biblical, sociological, theological, pastoral ... – aimed at Saint Joseph, a figure of a masculinity that questions us. Moreover, it proposes an ideal dialogue between scholars who have accepted Pope’s invitation: Ite ad Ioseph, «Go to Joseph». Their answers can be surprising. CONTRIBUTORS: Daniele Bouchard, Arianna De Simone, Elizabeth E.
