Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Globe, Vol. 1: A New Review of World-Literature, Society, Religion, Art and Politics Statue unveiled to Giordano Bruno, Rome, June 10th, 1889. - Papal Allocution, Leo XIII, September, 1889. - Pastoral Letter, Archbishop Ryan, Philadelphia, September, 1889. "On the 10th of June, 1889, the statue of Giordano Bruno was unveiled in Rome with imposing ceremonies. Thirty thousand persons, including students from the Italian universities, as well as deputations from the various seats of European learning, marched in solemn procession through the city streets, to honor the memory of the man who three centuries before had been burned at the stake on that very spot, by the orders of the Inquisition, which demanded his life as the penalty for his teachings." The above is simply a newspaper report of a fact that has already led and may still lead to most important and momentous consequences. According to the martyr´s own prediction his soul seems still to be ascending "upon the smoke to Paradise," or elsewhere. Ever since the 10th of June, 1889, the Pope of Rome - more correctly speaking, the Pope, or spiritual father of all Roman Catholic Christians throughout the world - appears to have been in a chronic state of real or feigned indignation on account of the honors paid to the memory of Bruno, June 10th, 1889.
