austraLasia #2664 Seventh and final Lenti volume released
ROME: 22 June 2010 -- On Thursday, 17 June 2010, the LAS
University Press of the Salesian Pontifical University in Rome released
the seventh and final volume in the series authored by Salesian scholar
Arthur J. Lenti: Don Bosco, History and Spirit. This volume,
entitled Don Bosco's Golden Years, includes a general index for
the entire series and numerous historical photographs. The volume
completes what can be called an epic series that is the fruit of 29
years of study, research and teaching on the part of Fr Lenti,
principally at the Institute of Salesian Spirituality in Berkeley.
Fr Aldo Giraudo, professor of Salesian Studies and
director of the 'Centro Studi Don Bosco' at the UPS has been the person
in Rome chiefly behind the efforts for bring Fr Lenti's opus into
print. Fr Giraudo secured a grant from the Salesian Mission Office in
Turin for the publication of the series, and worked with the author to
edit the series into a publishable form. Fr Giraudo also oversaw the
use of graphics and ordered the indexes that complete the entire series
as they appear at the conclusion of this seventh volume.
Copies of this and earlier volumes are available
through the LAS in Rome, the Institute of Salesian Spirituality in
Berkeley, and Salesiana at SRM Distribution Services in Paramus (New
Jersey). _________________ AustraLasia is an
