Rough Google Translation: Apostolic Letter MOTU PROPRIO "Latin" The Pontifical Academy of Latin specimen 1. Latin by the Catholic Church and Roman Pontiffs until the highly valued, since the language is their own, and to spread the knowledge of the person who constantly strove, in the whole world with the Gospel message and to transmit force, as in the Apostolic Constitution of Ancient Wisdom predecessor Blessed John 23 has rightly stated . Indeed, all of the languages spoken by the Pentecost church and prayed. However, plenty of the Christian communities of the early Greek and Latin language, usurped the places where they were staying with them would be the universal means of communication, of which with the help of the Word of Christ went to meet the newness of the inheritance of the Hellenistic and the Roman worship. Died, the Roman empire by the west, went to the Church of Rome, not only to make use of the Latin language, but also in a certain way and the keeper of the PROTECTRESS was of the same, whether in the theology and liturgy, whether in the institution and of the knowledge of the transmission to the Province. 2. In our time the knowledge of the Latin tongue, and the service is extremely necessary in order to investigate the sources from which they draw a number of other accounts of discipline, for example Theology, Liturgy, and the Right of the Canonical patrology, just as the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council teaches 2 (cf. Decree on the training of priests, which is desired of the whole, 13) . In addition to the language, to the universal nature of the church is open, the typical form of writing is the liturgical books of the Roman Rite, as well as important documents solemn pontifical Magisterium official Journal of the Roman Pontiffs. 3. Yet in today's culture, literature rarefication human studies, there is a lesser risk of Latin knowledge in the course of philosophical theologicisque future presbyters also noticed. On the contrary, in our own world, in which knowledge and technology hold the place of the principal, was renewed the study of culture and the Latin language is to be found, not only to them, which their own cultural roots of the continents in the patrimony of the Greek and Roman have. It is careful to note that not only the province of the universities and institutions involved, but also to young inquisitoresque concerns that arise from the different countries and traditions. 4. Hence the need to press it to his knowledge of Latin and higher utilization consistently supported care, whether in the Church or in the wider field of culture. To this effort, and even its appreciation, is entirely consistent with the use of teaching methods appropriate to the new conditions and to promote relations between the University and also the institutions and researchers, as a large and multiform Latin culture heritage transport. To the attainment of these objectives, treading the paths of our predecessors, today the Pontifical Academy of Latin has been given to these by the apostolic letter we store the Motu Proprio, which shall be subject to the Pontifical Council for Culture. It was ruled by the President, the Secretary, and it helps those of us that are named, while the Council of the Academy of assistance to them. The work is based on the Latin, that Paul VI. 6 a written language of the Romans on 30 June 1976 is set out. Of this Apostolic Letter given as Motu Proprio We decree, by which joined to the whole, for an experiment in the five-year statute of completely approved of, by the edition of the registers, in the proceedings of "L'Osservatore Romano" even its. Given in Rome, at Saint Peter's, on 10 day of the month of November, in the memory of Pope Saint Leo the Great, in the year 2012, the eighth of our pontificate. |

P.S. The words above give away a mindset where the only church ever to have existed is the Roman one, no inclination of an Orthodox one, never mind an Antioch one. Gerry |

Including Pope Peter?
How come the medical profession manage to share their knowledge, world wide? I doubt whether many doctors of medicine also have degrees in Latin. Why can it be detrimental? Who will pay for the "wider society" to have use of the new Academy? |

How will the Acadamy help spread the Faith ,help the return of the lapsed, help the return of Schismatic Churches, even affect the Catholic Oriental Rites? Sometime ago an Oriental Bishop had to demand simultaneous translation becaue he didn't understand Latin. To me, it is an utter waste of effort, time and money which could be used more effectively elsewhere! Edited by Derekap, Sunday, 11. November 2012, 12:41.

Good to see Rome is getting right to the heart of the matter at last. This move has electrified the laity. They are talking of little else in the clubs and pubs of Caerphilly. This will have them flocking back to the pews. Well done John |

A grave slur on the birthplace of the inimitable Tommy Cooper. |

Hi Carlo hope you are well. Your gibe at Caerphilly has a great deal of truth in it which is why it stings a bit! Bernard gives one redeeming feature and I would add a truly remarkable castle at the centre of town and surrounding scenery which redeems the admitted drabness of the town centre. But most of all-- and to return to theme-- I think the vibrant, thriving parish with lovely church, a hall which is at the centre of town life, busy Masses with regular christenings, organised pilgrimages and a general feel good factor are more important than some distant ivory tower pontifical whatever. I feel these people in the Vatican should get out more and realise what the Church is all about these days John |

Hi John and I am well thanks if a little over busy with the usual this and that! All tongue in cheek about Caerphilly and it's good to hear that your parish (like mine) is flourishing. However the Vatican's actions here are most welcome to those who care about such things and successful parishes are in no way linked to a sense of contempt for tradition, Latin or those Catholics who take an interest in such matters. I know you appreciate that really! Oremus CARLO

Parden the pun: despite the flourishing parish in Caerphilly, the Catholics may be cheesed=off with the Vatican. How many are: "those"? We may strongly disagree with your views but certainly don't hold the views nor the persons who hold them in contempt. |
