| Summary: | After a brief introduction based on the title, the author distinguishes the work in three points: 1) The friary of the Friars Minor Conventual in Gela. 2) The Conventual Friar Minor. 3) The Franciscan Cardinal. The first point illustrates the town of Gela, formerly Terranova di Sicilia, which at the time of Panebianco was a village of about 9,000 inhabitants, but thanks to its commercial port and tourism, today it has over 70,000 inhabitants. The friary of St. Francis, founded in the countryside around 1265, was given to the Capuchins in 1574, when the Conventuals moved to the coast. There are many prominent Gelesi Conventuals. The second point is dedicated to the life of Antonio Panebianco. Born in Gela in 1808, he trained in Catania before being counted among the students of the College of St. Bonaventure in Rome (1834). All documentation of the sacred ordinations of the Panebianco were found in the Archbishop's Archives in Catania. Unfortunately, the date of his priestly ordination is missing. From other documents, however, it is certain that he was ordained a priest in 1832. He held many positions in his Province of Sicily, which he also governed as Minister Provincial. He was Assistant General and he missed out by a few votes on being elected Minister General. The third point, the Franciscan Cardinal, begins with the appointment of Panebianco as Consultor of the Holy Office, a prelude to elevation to Cardinal of the Congregation for Indulgences and Sacred Relics [S.R.C.] (1861), to the return of the Delegation to Transylvania led by the Nuncio in Vienna Antonio De Luca on mixed marriages, concluded to the satisfaction of the Holy See and the Emperor of Austria. As Cardinal his title church in Rome was St. Girolamo degli Schiavoni, instantly changed to that of The Basilica of the Twelve Holy Apostles. As Prefect of the Sacred Congregation of Indulgences and Relics, he was a member of almost all the Roman congregations. He participated in the First Vatican Council (1870). He was very close to the Holy Father Pius IX and shared his ambition for the fall of the Papal State (1870). He was among the papabile in the conclave of 1878 in which Leo XIII was elected. He died on November 21, 1885 at SS. Apostoli, where he remained in community as a cardinal. He is buried at Campo Verano. (English) |
