Internet e la Madonna. The Cult of Religious Visions on the Web

2002

Apolito Paolo

Italia

Internet and the changing face of Catholic visionary mysticism In his introduction to this fascinating new analysis, cultural anthropologist Paolo Apolito writes that " … in a decidedly greater measure with respect to other technological resources, the Web threatens to radically transform religious visionary culture and, consequently, Catholicism itself." The claims of Marian apparitions in the town of Medjugorje, Bosnia starting in 1981, and the diffusion of subsequent claims of visions there with advent of the Internet in the following two decades form the structural base of this important new analytical study. Does the democratic nature of access to digital technologies constitute a possible return to an archaic form of Catholicism that predates the modernizing reforms of the Second Vatican Council ? Or does the self-referential essence of the Internet preclude the dialectical dynamics inherent in traditional Marian visionary mysticism ? These are just some of the questions posed in this engaging and exciting new book. Brilliantly researched, and elegantly written, Apolito explores the cultural and philosophical implications of rapidly changing technologies, and the potential effects of those technologies on the relationship of the Catholic Church and its followers.

L’avvento dell’era digitale, effetto dello sviluppo delle tecnologie informatiche, comporta una crescita costante del numero di persone che utilizzano internet quale strumento oltre che per apprendere informazioni, anche incontrare amicizie, intrecciare amori, scambiare emozioni. In pratica internet sta diventando sempre più uno strumento attraverso il quale si stabilisce, con particolari caratteri, una vita di relazione. Anche le tematiche religiose hanno trovato il loro posto in questo uso della Rete, al punto che è possibile affermare che la religione, dopo il sesso e l’informatica sia, dal punto di vista dei singoli utenti (con esclusione, quindi, degli scambi tra istituti e organizzazioni), il terzo più diffuso tema attorno cui si concentrano gli interessi degli internauti (Hadden&Cowan 2000).
