PRESENTATION OF FIRST TWO BOOKS IN ITALIAN BY POPE FRANCIS
Vatican City, 25 March 2013 (VIS) - "Guarire dalla corruzione" (Recovering
from Corruption) and "Umilta, la strada verso Dio" (Humility: The Road towards
God) are the titles of the first two books by the new Pope to be published
in Italian. Tomorrow, 26 March, they will be presented to the press at the
Curci Hall of the offices of the Jesuit periodical "La Civilta Cattolica".
Written when he was Archbishop of Buenos Aires, both texts draw upon the
spirituality expressed by St. Ignatius of Loyola in his "Spiritual Exercises"
to describe the profound mechanism of corruption in society-including the
Church-and to note solutions, among which is the need for an ecclesial life
characterized by fraternal charity.
"Guarire dalla corruzione" (orig. "Corrupcion y pecado") is a text on
morality. Based on an analysis of the spread of corruption in Argentine
society and around the world, it locates the root of this evil within the
heart. The
text makes a novel distinction between the phenomena of corruption and sin.
The afterword is written by Judge Pietro Grasso, president of the Italian
Senate and former head of Italy's national anti-mafia prosecutor's agency.
"Umilta, la strada verso Dio" (orig. "Sobre la acusacion de si mismo") has a
strongly spiritual character. It introduces a text-widely cited in the book-by
Dorotheus of Gaza, a 6th century Church Father, on humility.
The book includes an appendix written by the prior of the ecumenical Monastic
Community of Bose, Enzo Bianchi, who updates Dorotheus' message through the
reading offered by Pope Francis.

OPENING OF SQUARE GARDEN AT VATICAN MUSEUMS
Vatican City, 25 March 2013 (VIS) - The Square Garden ("Giardino Quadrato"),
ordered by Pope Paul III Farnese who also commissioned Michelangelo to paint
"The Last Judgment" in 1534, will be open to visitors of the Vatican
Museums beginning today.
Created by the architect Jacopo Meleghino, it is a classical Italian garden
with four lawns bordered by hedges and covers nearly a hectare of ground. It
has now been furnished with benches, upon which visitors can take a break from
their tour of the
museums. From the garden you can see the dome of St. Peter, the grove that
covers the Vatican hill, and the walls of the museums' Pinacotheca, which
houses works by Raphael, da Vinci, and Caravaggio.
Visiting hours for the Square Garden will be the same as those of the Vatican
Museums.
