  • MY SCHOOL - ITALY

    Istituto magistrale statale`Francesco Angeloni'

    `F.Angeloni' Institute is located in a town of small dimension, with a long historical past. The urban area occupies the southern part of Umbria and has represented, during the period of industrial revolution, a national pole of the great steel and chemical industry. Unfortunately, nowadays because of the problems of the steel industry in the context of the international globalization, Terni is crossed by a crisis that makes all the area exposed to phenomena of occupational decrement. Engaged in the search of an alternative economic development, the town lives a crisis of identity looking for a new model of development. The town now is a depressed area and it receives incentives, typical of the industrial areas in crisis, addressed towards tourism, and movie production ( La vita bella, Oscar movie by Roberto Benigni ,was in fact produced in Terni ). Also in the technical literature, the Terni case is a metaphor of a social-economic-cultural situation, typical of the crisis and the search for a new anthropological identity. The Magistrale Institute, in the Italian school system, is a type of school mainly focused on teachers education. Because of the development of the Italian Educational System, Angeloni Institute evolved from the formation of the future teacher to the direction of Courses like : Music Liceum, Linguistic Liceum, Human Sciences Liceum, Dance Liceum maturing a long European experience, with the `mission' focused on the Comenius partnership, careful to the teachers training process. F.Angeloni is also a DEURE centre strongly engaged in the planning of the European projects.

    Dear Friend!

    My name is Marta. Im thirteen years old and Im from Poland.

    When I look at the world around I can see many people arguing and warring.

    Sometimes I wonder how to stop this and then I think there is no hope for a change,

    because so far no one has ever done anything about it. It seems wars will never end. But is

    the situation really hopeless? I remember one film about a boy who decided to do

    something special. He came up with the project called Pay it forward. He wanted to help

    three people, and those three people were to help some other three people. Thats how the

    chain was created. In the end, he made many people happier. And I think this is the key.

    Maybe we cannot save the world, but we can make some small changes first. Lets start with

    ourselves. Lets just be nice and kind to everyone, beginning with the members of our

    family. Lets try to get to know our neighbors better. If we can, lets help people around us

    even if it was only the matter of carrying some shopping bags for an elderly lady. Lets stop

    our anger and annoyance, whenever possible. And what is most important, lets take care

    of our friends and make some new ones as often as we can. This may be our small, but in

    the end, a very big role in peace making!

    Greetings from Poland!

  • MAN OF PEACE - BULGARIA Nikola Yonkov Vaptsarov ( 1909 -1942)

    Nikola Yonkov Vaptsarov ( 1909 -1942) was a Bulgarian poet and revolutionary. Working

    most of his life as a machinist, he only wrote in his spare time. Despite the fact that he

    ever published only one poetry book, he is considered one of the biggest Bulgarian poets.

    Trained as a machine engineer at the Naval Machinery School in Varna, which was later

    named after him, his first service was on the famous Drazki torpedo boat.

    Later he went to work in a factory - at first as a stoker and eventually as a mechanic. He

    was elected Chairman of the Association protecting worker rights in the factory. He

    successfully led a strike of about 300 workers in 1936 to reinstate workers after a lock-

    out.

    In early 1941 Nazi forces were allowed to enter Bulgaria and take control of the country as a prelude to the attack on the

    USSR. Vaptsarov joined the armed resistance movement and was active in the military centre. His training as an engineer

    and mechanic proved useful at this juncture. This was an extremely tiring and hazardous task and Vaptsarov found little

    time to write poems. Yet he was urged by his comrades to keep writing as one of them put it, Though at the moment the

    fate of the world is being decided by arms, a stirring contemporary poem is no less important than arms.

    Vaptsarov was arrested in 1942 and subjected to inhuman torture and finally executed on 23rd July, 1942. He continued to

    write till the very end, and indeed his last verse addressed to his wife is one of the most moving and inspiring.

    His only released book of poetry is Motoring Verses (1940).

    In 1952, he received posthumously the International Peace Award.

    His poetry has been translated in 98 languages throughout the world.

    History

    History, will you mention us

    In your faded scroll?

    We worked in factories, offices

    Our names were not well known.

    We worked in fields, smelled strongly

    Of onion and sour bread.

    Through thick moustaches angrily

    We cursed the life we led.

    For life, showing no mercy,

    With heavy brutish paw

    Battered our hungry faces.

    Thats why our tongue is raw.

    Thats why the poems Im writing

    In hours I steal from sleep

    Have not the grace of perfume,

    But brief and scowling beat.

    For the hardship and affliction

    We do not seek rewards,

    Nor do we want our pictures

    In the calendar of years.

    Just tell our story simply

    To those we shall not see,

    Tell those who will replace us

    We fought courageously.

  • SAN FRANCESCO A MAN OF PEACE ITALY

    The Canticle of the CreaturesSan Francesco d'Assisi

    Most high, all powerful, all good Lord All praise is yours, all glory, all honor and all blessing. To you alone, Most High, do they belong and no human being is worthy to pronounce your name. Praised be You, my Lord, through all that you have made, and first my lord brother Sun, who brings the day and light you give us through him; How beautiful is he, how radiant in all his splendour: of you, Most High, he bears the likeness.

    Praised be You, my Lord, hrough our sister mother Earth, who sustains and governs us, producing varied fruits with coloured flowers and herbs. Praised be You, my Lord, through those who grant pardon for love of You, and bear sickness and trial; blessed are those who endure in peace, by You, most High, they will be crowned. Praised be You, my Lord, through our corporal sister Death, from whom no mortal can escape: woe to those who die in mortal sin; blessed are they she finds doing your will, no second death can do them harm. Praise and bless my Lord, and give him thanks and serve him with great humility.

    Francis was born in Assisi in 1181. Son of a cloth merchant, he wanted to become a member of the lesser nobles in his town: He took part in the war against Perugia and, while he was travelling to Puglia to participate in the Crusade, he heard a voice which invited him to rebuild his Church. Francis obeyed and left his family and friends to lead a poor, solitary and penitential life for several years. In 1209 he started to preach the Gospel in various towns and, together with his followers, he went to Rome to gain the Popes approval of his choice of life. From 1210 to 1224 he wandered in the streets and the squares of the Italian towns gathering crowds and crowds of people and followers called by him friars. He welcomed Clare who started the second Franciscan order and next he founded a third order for those who wished to live a life as penitents with rules suitable for laical people. He died during the night between the third and the fourth of October in 1228. Francis is one of the leading figures in the human history and still speaks to every generation. His charm comes from his great love for Jesus from whom he received the stigmata.

    Assisi "World Heritage of HumanityIt is a Holy City loved by God,

    gate of the Paradise for the salvation of many, called to return to the splendour of

    Saint Francis s times, the most beloved Saint of the world, who, before dying

    blessed Assisi with this prayer:

    Lord, I believe that this city was in ancient times shelter and home of evil wicked men, infamous in all these regions. But for your abundant

    mercy, in the time that pleased you, I see that you have shown the overabundance of your goodness, so that the city has become refuge and

    stay of those who know you and give glory to your name and spread scent of holy life, direct doctrine and good reputation among all the Christian people. I pray you therefore, O Lord Jesus Christ, Father of

    mercy, not to look at our ingratitude, but to remember only the abundance of your goodness, that you have shown. This city may always be land and home of those who know you and glorify your name, blessed

    and glorious in the centuries of the centuries. Amen.

    World Day of Prayer for Peace summoned at Assisi by John Paul II on October 27th, 1986.
