Talk:Dionigi Tettamanzi

Untitled
I'm going to park the original text of this article here while I rewrite what is presented on the main page:


 * Ordained a priest in 1957 in Milan by its then Archbishop, the future Pope Paul VI, he held various pastoral and teaching assignments until he was named Archbishop of Ancona in 1989 and was consecrated a bishop. Only two years later he resigned from this archdiocese on being chosen as secretary-general of the Italian Episcopal Conference. In 1995 he became Archbishop of Genoa and the Conference's Vice President and was elevated to Cardinal in the consistory of 1998.


 * The book Passing the Keys: Modern Cardinals, Conclaves, and the Election of the Next Pope (ISBN 1568331304) by Francis A. Burkle-Young identified Tettamanzi as one of a handful of Papabile cardinals, possible successors to Pope John Paul II. Developments following the book's 1999 publication, including the death of one of the other candidates and the retirement of others, led Young to regard Tettamanzi as the likeliest choice. Others have also speculated on his papal chances, though this did not prevent new Cardinal Keith O'Brien of Scotland from jokingly referring to Tettamanzi in 2003 as a "wee fat guy", being amused by the prospect of Tettamanzi as Pope. In 2005 after the death of John Paul II his name was still being quoted by some bookmakers as a favourite to be the next Pope.

The information above will be returned after I am finished. --Gerald Farinas 14:02, 13 Apr 2005 (UTC)

 * It not correct to say that on the 20 March 2008 Tettamanzi announced that the Holy See had approved an innovative new Ambrosian Lectionary.... The Archbishop of Milan is the Head of the Ambrosian Rite: so the steps of the New Lectionary have been: Tettamanzi approved the texts, the Holy See confirmed them (latin: recognitio), and the 20 March Tettamanzi issued the Lectionary. This is extremely clear from the official decree of issue (available in Italian on the official site of the Milan Dioceses). And we cannot say this Lectionary to be innovative, because it is based on the traditional Ambrosian Lectionary, that has been abolished after the Council Vatican II to use the Roman Lectionary.
 * I suggest: On the 20 March 2008 Tettamanzi issued the New Ambrosian Lectionary, previously confirmed by the Holy See, that supersedes the 1976 experimental edition. A ntv (talk) 21:01, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
