This essay aims to reconstruct Alberto Manzi's idea of Christian religion. Through his contact with South America, and with priests close to what would become Theology of Liberation, Manzi developed a unique vision of the role of religion in his life and, by extension, in human history. A Christianity that can be defined as humanist, in that it places man, seen as alter Christus, at the centre of its reflection: a perspective that, on the one hand, led Manzi to live his educational activity in Peru and Bolivia with missionary zeal and, on the other, contributed to strengthening in him a sense of social justice and redemption of the peripheries of the world, in South America as in Italy
Il saggio si propone di ricostruire l’idea del cristianesimo secondo Alberto Manzi. A contatto specialmente con il Sudamerica, e con i sacerdoti vicini a quella che sarà la teologia della liberazione, Manzi maturerà una visione peculiare del ruolo della religione nella sua vita e, di riflesso, nella storia umana. Un cristianesimo che può essere definito umanista, nel momento in cui pone al centro della riflessione l’uomo, visto come alter Christus: una prospettiva che se da un lato porterà Manzi a vivere con afflato missionario la sua attività educativa in Perù e Bolivia, dall’altro contribuirà a rafforzare in lui un sentimento di giustizia sociale e di riscatto delle periferie del mondo, in Sudamerica come in Italia

Abstract
This essay aims to reconstruct Alberto Manzi's idea of Christian religion. Through his contact with South America, and with priests close to what would become Theology of Liberation, Manzi developed a unique vision of the role of religion in his life and, by extension, in human history. A Christianity that can be defined as humanist, in that it places man, seen as alter Christus, at the centre of its reflection: a perspective that, on the one hand, led Manzi to live his educational activity in Peru and Bolivia with missionary zeal and, on the other, contributed to strengthening in him a sense of social justice and redemption of the peripheries of the world, in South America as in Italy| File | Dimensione del file | Formato | |
