Subiaco Cassinese Congregation
Соглашение Subiaco Cassinese - это Международный союз бенедиктинских домов (аббатские и приоры) в рамках бенедиктинской конфедерации . It developed from the Subiaco Congregation , which was formed in 1867 through the initiative of Dom Pietro Casaretto , OSB, as a reform of the way of life of monasteries of the Cassinese Congregation , formed in 1408, toward a stricter contemplative observance, and received final Одобрение в 1872 году Папой Пием IX . After discussions between the two congregations at the start of the 21st century, approval was given by Pope Benedict XVI in 2013 for the incorporation of the Cassinese Congregation into its offshoot, the Subiaco Congregation. Расширенное собрание было дано это новое имя. [ 1 ]

Отец Касаретто (1810–1878) в возрасте семнадцати лет был монахом аббатства Санта -Мария -дель -Монте , который был членом древней Кассинской общины бенедиктинских монастырей. Из -за его плохого состояния здоровья позже, после его рукоположения в качестве священника , ему было рекомендовано искать экспрессию (временный отпуск на проницательность). Вместо этого он принял задание в приход, который был поручен пастырской заботе об собрании, но только при условии сопровождения нескольких его брата монахов. Кроме того, его условием заключалось в том, что им разрешено следовать точному соблюдению монашеской жизни, изложенной в правлении Святого Бенедикта . практика постоянного от празднования утсец и Быть возрожденным в этом была мяса воздержания Полем Его видение было выполнено с созданием небольшого монашеского сообщества в 1843 году.
Новый фонд получил одобрение в рамках общины в 1846 году с визитом аббата их материнской общины. В том же году он также обнаружил поддержку со стороны Ватикана с одобрением 18 статей, которые Касаретто подал в качестве формирования характера фонда. Кроме того, он основал небольшую семинарию поблизости, чтобы подготовить монахов для обслуживания за рубежом. Это было в шаге от чисто европейского фокуса Кассинской общины.
В течение следующих нескольких лет три других кассинских монастыря присоединились к эксперименту Касаретто. At this point, the Cassinese Congregation formed these communities into a new Province of Subiaco , granting these communities a degree of autonomy. К 1867 году монастыри в Бельгии, Англия и Франции также присоединились к этой новой провинции. Это был год, когда Касаретто решил, что условия в общине матери были таковы, что лучше всего будет полным расколом. For this he convened an extraordinary Diet , which declared such a break, and established the monasteries of the Province as the Cassinese Congregation of the Primitive Observance . One new feature of this congregation, breaking with monastic tradition, was the establishment of a single abbot for the congregation, titled the Abbot General, with the Superior of each monastery being titled simply a prior , who was to be elected triennially , rather than for жизнь.
Этот шаг вызвал критику чрезмерной централизации монашеской жизни, но новая община процветала и получила окончательное папала одобрение в 1872 году, всего через пять лет после ее инаугурации. И все же видение Касаретто не должно было выжить в целости. В течение нескольких лет после его смерти комитет кардиналов необычайную общую главу в 1880 году назвал . Каждый монастырь и практика пообещающей стабильности монаха в одном сообществе.
Following decades saw the consolidation and expansion of the Congregation. Growing hostility by the governments of Italy and France saw temporary suppression of various abbeys. This led them to establish new foundations in Bengal, New Zealand and the Philippines by the end of the 19th century. The congregation was flourishing however, at the start of the 20th century, with the number of monks growing from about 1,000 in 1920 to over 1,400 by 1937. New foundations were taking place, but this growth also came through the affiliation of the formerly Anglican monastery of Prinknash Abbey which chose to affiliate itself with this Congregation, after its conversion to the Catholic Church.
The Spanish Civil War, followed soon after by World War II, saw a change in fortunes of the Congregation. Widespread destruction and dispersal of religious communities did not spare the monks. The entire community of "El Pueyo" was murdered during this conflict. Growth was able to resume after these conflicts, especially in the French province, which made new foundations in Asia and Africa. In 1959, the General Chapter of the Congregation chose to re-take its original name of Subiaco.[2]
Current status
[edit]As of 2021[update], the Congregation consists of 64 monasteries, with another 45 women's houses affiliated or "aggregated". There are 1,250 members located in 24 countries.[3]
The congregation was formed with the aim of rediscovering the ancient simplicity of the monastic life, which had become obscured over the centuries. As such, its houses tend to be focused more on an enclosed contemplative life rather than pastoral involvement with the larger community through the operations of schools or parishes. Compared to the other member congregations of the Benedictine Confederation (apart from the Ottilien Congregation), the Subiaco Confederation is one of the most internationally diverse, due to the widespread missionary activity of its abbeys.
The residence of the Abbot President of the congregation is at the Abbey of St. Ambrose (Italian: Sant'Ambrogio della Massima) in Rome. It was founded by the sister of St. Ambrose in the 4th century as a monastery of nuns.[4]
On Thursday, September 22, 2016, capitulars of the General Chapter meeting in Rome, elected as the new Abbot President, Abbot Guillermo Arboleda Tamayo. He is the first Abbot President of the Congregation from the Americas. He was born in 1956, ordained priest in 1980, and professed as a monk of Santa María de la Epifanía (Guatapé) in 1986. He previously served as Abbot of the Abbey of Santa Maria de la Asunción (Envigado) and Administrator of Santa María de la Epifanía (Guatapé).
