Biography

Giuseppe Alberigo received a graduate degree in law, studying under the German historian Hubert Jedin , under Delio Cantimori in Florence . and under the diocesan vicar and monk Giuseppe Dossetti who was one of the most influential progressives at the Second Vatican Council . [1]
Alberigo's most important work was the direction of the editorial initiative Storia del Concilio Vaticano II, [2] but its progressive character did not have unanimous acceptance among Catholics, with critical reviews appearing in L'Osservatore Romano . The work of Giuseppe Alberigo and the " School of Bologna " is criticized because it supports the hermeneutics of discontinuity, an interpretation of the Second Vatican Council which considers it a crucial event that marks a turning point in the history of the Catholic Church. [3]
Following the presentation of the bill on the " Rights and duties of people living together " (DiCo) presented by the ministers Rosy Bindi and Barbara Pollastrini and the criticisms coming from the ecclesiastical hierarchy, on 13 February 2007 Alberigo promoted a public appeal in which he invited the Episcopal Conference of Italy to not intervene in a proposal for an official vote among Italian Catholic politicians. The bill has never been approved. [4]
On 20 April 2007, after his admission to the hospital Policlinico Sant'Orsola-Malpighi , Alberigo's relatives were informed by the Bologna Prefect Vincenzo Grimaldi that the President of the Republic Giorgio Napolitano had conferred on him the honor of a Knight of the Grand Cross of the Italian Republic , [5] saying that his was "an authoritative voice emphasizing with critical awareness the importance of the contribution of Catholic culture in the debate on ideas in our country.
