Catechismo e dintorni III

From "Against the Catechism of the Catholic Church"

A minimum of history

In the early centuries of the Christian churches, the mission of evangelization took place in three stages: preaching, catechesis, baptism. The almost universal illiteracy of those centuries delayed the implementation di catechismi scritti. Se ne attribuisce uno in lingua latina ad Alcuino, il principale intellettuale della corte di Carlo Magno, attorno al 780. Secondo Alcuino, compito del predicatore era trovare le parole più adatte per farsi comprendere dalle popolazioni pagane, evitando minacce e costrizione. Curioso è che già in quell’antico testo vi fosse una polemica contro il culto delle reliquie: “ è meglio imitare gli esempi dei santi che portare le loro ossa”. Mentre il Compendio (del 2005 dopo Cristo) al punto 353, sottolinea l’importanza della venerazione delle reliquie, definendola “ forma autentica di pietà popolare” .

to 789 is the Benedictine Weissenburg catechism, written in Latin and German, is broader than that of Alcuin, but also focuses on the ethical implications of faith.

In those centuries, the greatest effort of evangelization was supported by the Anglo-Saxon monks, who clashed with the persistence of pockets of paganism: liturgical feasts were often the only chance of singing, dancing, eating and drinking .

With ecclesiastical reform of Gregory VII in 1070, the Church clericalized is increasingly playing an increasingly public and hence the space of the laity tends to disappear.

But the real turning point came in the early sixteenth century, when Luther launches what will be the Protestant Reformation, inspired by the belief that it was enough to circulate among the people the word of God, making it accessible and understandable . From literacy of the masses, Luther was expecting a lot, maybe everything: the radical renewal of conscience, the church and of 'society as a whole. In this context, enter the Lutheran German translation of the Bible, his vast literary output and, in 1528, the Large Catechism , followed in 1529 's Enchiridion, said Small Catechism (in 1562 it is an Italian translation)

Since then, thanks to the invention of Gutenberg and the increasing spread of printing, the catechisms and summary Flake: in particular, the Catholic Church meets in 1566 with the Catechismus romanus to parochos .

accelerated the rate of this mini-reconstruction in 1912 released Catechism of Christian Doctrine, four questions and answers, reduced to 150 for elementary schools.

In recent decades, leaves the Catholic Catechism in Germany in 1955, the Dutch in 1962 which caused much controversy, Supplement outdated by 1969.

In 1970 the Catholic Church started a large project catechetical Italian, which gave its first fruit in 1981 with Lord, to whom shall we go?

's October 11, 1992, John Paul II promulgated the Catechism of the Catholic Church .

In 2005 he released Compendium (a kind summary), report it in some very interesting statements . And from now will define C, to distinguish it from the 1992 version which I will call CC.

The edition that I have before me is the economic one (206 pages, 9.50 €, Sao Paulo-Libreria Editrice Vaticana), different but equal to the format for the text to the most luxurious.
