| Summary: | Until 1986, St. Francis Anthony Fasani was known only as a great orator, with a following of many devotees both in Lucera and in the regions of Daunia (both places are in the province of Foggia). However, his stature as a Franciscan writer was unknown. Thanks to the commendable and hard work of Fr. Bonaventura Danza OFMConv from Puglia, the manuscripts of the Maestro, Fasani, almost all in Latin, documented by typewriter, are now more accessible to scholars, who immediately had the pleasant surprise of being confronted by a writer worthy of the name. The appreciative discovery dates back to 1986, the year of the canonization of the Saint Francis Anthony Fasani. At that time Fr. Eugenio Galignano, then Minister Provincial of Puglia, invited a team of professors of Saint Bonaventure's College (Seraphicum), to collaborate and these responded enthusiastically to the appeal. In 1986, professors from the Theological Faculty of the Order edited the first Rosary of Fasani for the numerous editions of Messenger of St. Anthony of Padua, and Fasani's seven Marian novenas were published with various examinations by the same professors. Again, through the Faculty and the editions of the Messenger of St. Anthony, a large volume appeared on Fasani in 1989 between apostolic history and doctrine. In 1997, the Committee for the Cultural Promotion of Fasani was established. This committee, in the years 1997 - 2000, edited the following new works by Fasani: A short commentary on the Our Father, a second Rosary, a Second Commentary on the Our Father. A new work by Fasani entitled "God probes the heart" was published in 2018 in Lucera, with a corresponding Italian translation by Fr. Eugenio Galignano, a great promotor of the cultural movement of Fasani. (English) |
