We are delighted to inform you that the Fourth edition of the Research Grant in memory of Fr Emanuele Boaga has been awarded to Flavia Di Giampaolo, a Doctor of Research in Textual Sciences and a palaeographer archivist graduated from the APD School of the State Archives of Rome. She will be working on a project entitled: The travel diary of Giovanni Antonio Filippini, prior general: critical edition and historical contextualisation.

The manuscript under investigation is characterised by its very small dimensions, like a pocket diary, and was compiled during the journey undertaken by General Filippini in the years 1651-1653 through the Carmelite provinces of Central Europe, which were at that time involved in a reform movement. The critical study of this text will have the merit of shedding light on the work of a poorly studied but highly significant figure for the history of the Carmelite Order.
