Giubileo 2025: la speranza nelle sfide del presente
Se la bellezza salverà il mondo, chi salverà la bellezza?
talk with Father Mauro-Giuseppe Lepori
Abbot General of the Cistercian Order
The Jubilee is celebrated every twenty-five years as a means of renewal and transformation through the reconciliation and forgiveness made possible by the coming of Christ into the world. But what meaning can the Jubilee have today, in the midst of the devastation caused by recurring conflicts, acts of violence and abuse, the loss of old certainties, a sense of helplessness and fear for our survival and the survival of the planet? We have asked this question to three prominent figures in the Catholic Church, who will contribute from different perspectives: beauty, based on Dostoyevsky’s famous quote; a focus on truth and essence; and mercy, based on a reinterpretation of Manzoni’s The Betrothed.
