Monaster bazylianów w Wechracie w świetle dokumentów sporządzonych przed jego kasatą w 1808 roku
2019
W roku 1808 zostały sporządzone inwentarze, m.in. „Realności klasztoru bazyliańskiego werchrackiego”, dzięki którym można w przybliżeniu ocenić jego sytuację materialną. Dokumenty te są obecnie częścią zasobu Centralnego Państwowego Archiwum Historycznego Ukrainy we Lwowie. Klasztor należał wówczas do diecezji przemyskiej, dekanatu potylickiego i cyrkułu żółkiewskiego. Przyczyną podjęcia pracy nad inwentarzem była planowana konfiskata mienia werchrackich bazylianów. Okazało się jednak, że z powodu zaniedbania kasata została odsunięta w czasie, a dostępne dzisiaj regestry nie były pierwszą próbą dokonania spisu dóbr należących do bazylianów w tym trudnym okresie. Konfiskatę dóbr ruchomych i …

La ricostruzione dell'abside in alcuni esempi della seconda metà del XVI secolo a Palermo
2015
Il contributo ha l’obiettivo di studiare alcuni casi di ricostruzione dell’abside eseguiti in edifici chiesastici palermitani nella seconda metà del XVI secolo. Si tratta delle chiese di San Sebastiano, San Francesco d’Assisi e San Martino delle Scale (all’interno dell’omonima abbazia), in cui, nella seconda metà del Cinquecento, per motivi liturgici, l’abside originaria viene “trasformata”, in un’abside “piatta”, al fine di potervi inserire il Coro ligneo. Il nuovo posizionamento del Coro, in conseguenza della Riforma tridentina - problematica centrale nell’Europa di età moderna – suscita, anche in questi casi palermitani, dibattiti e controversie. Il cambiamento della forma dell’abside de…

2020
As a conseąuence of the nineteenth-century dissolution of religious orders, no małe Benedictine monastery survived in Poland.

Left without help, he did not realize his plans there. His prior, Father Arnośt Vykoukal, offered help, but he did not have the re…
La fondazione del monastero di Santa Chiara di Piazza Armerina (1320-1340): un vuoto documentario
2017
ITALIANO: Il numero degli insediamenti francescani femminili in Sicilia nel XIII e XIV secolo è ridotto e la ricostruzione della storia dei pochi monasteri esistenti è resa più complessa dalla mancanza di documenti che accomuna buona parte di essi. È il caso del monastero di Santa Chiara di Piazza Armerina la cui storia trecentesca, a partire dalla fondazione, sembra essere avvolta nell’oblio. Il saggio si propone, sulla scorta dei pochi documenti rinvenuti, di chiarire alcuni elementi legati alla sua fondazione ad opera di Guglielmo Caldarera barone di Bifara e di Favarotta. / ENGLISH: The number of female franciscan settlements in Sicily in the 13th and 14th centuries is limited and the r…

The collection of church art of the Valamo monastery belongs to worthy rarities. Due to the evacuation from Karelia to Finland, collection survived almost complete. Despite the fact that the collection is well known to specialists in Finland and Russia, the research processes is just beginning.

Almost nothing is known about the number of them, neither origins nor something about the painters of them. Many icons of the 18th century from the Valamo’s collection decorated the monastery churches. For this reason, the focus of this dissertation is the decoration of the main interiors of the Cathedral…

In the Norman hunting park dominating the Conca d'Oro, in the second half of the XII century the monumental complex of Monreale began as a rational unitary body, consisting of the royal palace, the Duomo and the Benedictine convent which, from 1176, housed hundred Cluniac monks of Cava de 'Tirreni, called here by King William II; a wall, originally equipped with twelve towers, protected the religious community from possible external attacks. The goal of the founder was the creation of a strong instrument for the Christianization of western Sicily - still predominantly Muslim -, and at the same time of a prestigious dynastic mausoleum, in the explicit intent to rival all previous sacred impe…
