The British ambassador to the Holy See, Sally Axworthy, has hosted an official launch for the English edition of the prestigious Jesuit journal ‘La Civiltà Cattolica’. Founded in 1850 and originally available only in Italian, the magazine will now be published monthly in English, French, Spanish and Korean as well.
Fr Spadaro explained that ‘La Civiltà Cattolica‘ started out in an international context in 1850, before the unification of Italy, but became an Italian national publication in 1861. “Now we felt a push to spread our content in different contexts”, he said, “because the Pope asked us to be bridges.”
