Il 12 novembre 2022 avrà luogo presso il convento di Santa Maria in Traspontina (Roma) una giornata di studi sul beato Angelo Paoli (1642-1720), carmelitano dell’antica osservanza, che fu attivo presso l’Ospedale di San Giovanni in Laterano e fondò, nelle sue vicinanze, un convalescenziario destinato all’accoglienza dei poveri appena dimessi dall’Ospedale. Per il suo impegno Angelo Paoli appare ancora oggi come uno dei grandi della carità nella Roma barocca, distinguendosi per l’impegno sociale nei confronti di indigenti e malati.

Il convegno, promosso dall’Archivio Generale e dalla Postulazione Generale dei Carmelitani, metterà in evidenza alcuni aspetti ancora poco conosciuti della vita e dell’opera socio-assistenziale del Paoli, dando spazio alle ultime ricerche archivistiche condotte intorno alla sua figura.

We look forward to seeing many of you there!
