In his Memoirs Cardinal Antonio Bacci, one of the greatest Latinists of the recent past, outlines convincingly the importance of the use of the Latin language for the maintenance and the flourishing of a true culture in a time when humanity is sinking into the chaos of arbitrary subjectivism and inhuman technocracy. Cardinal Bacci warned clear-sightedly especially against the dangers of the loss of the use of Latin in the sacred Liturgy and in sacred doctrine, as then the Catholic faithful and clergy and the theologians from all nations of the world will be deprived of a sure and proven instrument and expression of Catholic unity in prayer and in faith. May the witness of his life and work bear fruits for the true renewal of the Church. - Athanasius Schneider, Auxiliary Bishop of the archdiocese of Saint Mary in Astana About the Translator Anthony Lo Bello is Professor of Mathematics at Allegheny College, Meadville, Pennsylvania.
