Third Order of Saint Francis

Фолиньо

The Third Order of Saint Francis, is a third order in the Franciscan order. The preaching of Francis of Assisi, as well as his example, exercised such an attraction on people that many married men and women wanted to join the First Order or the Second Order , but this being incompatible with their state of life, Francis found a middle way and in 1221 gave them a rule according to the Franciscan charism. Those following this rule became members of the Franciscan Third Order, sometimes called tertiaries. It includes religious congregations of men and women, known as Third Order Regulars; and fraternities of men and women, Third Order Seculars. The latter do not wear a religious habit, take vows, or live in community. However, they do gather together in community on a regular basis. "They make profession to live out the Gospel life and commit themselves to that living out the Gospel according to the example of Francis."In 1978, the Third Order of Saint Francis was reorganised and given a new Rule of Life by Pope Paul VI. With the new rule, the name used by the Third Order Secular was changed to the Secular Franciscan Order.

Набережная Дзаттере

Венеция

Набережная Дзаттере , в прошлом набережная Неисцелимых — набережная венецианского квартала Дорсодуро, самая южная в городе. Проложена вдоль канала Джудекка параллельно острову Джудекка. Протяженность — почти 2 км. Главная достопримечательность — собор Санта-Мария-делла-Салюте. Изначально — пристань для перевалки древесины, ныне — признанный туристический центр. Во времена эпидемии чумы на этой набережной располагался госпиталь для неизлечимо больных, отсюда название «набережная Неисцелимых». После избавления от эпидемии воздвигнут собор Санта-Мария-делла-Салюте. Позднее улице было присвоено более оптимистичное название, но и сегодня на домах висят таблички: «Дзаттере, бывшая Неизлечимых» . В России набережная известна по эссе Иосифа Бродского «Набережная неисцелимых» . Поэт писал о Венеции: «Это город для глаз; остальные чувства играют еле слышную вторую скрипку». Статья вышла впервые на итальянском языке. В 2009 на набережной появилась памятная доска Иосифу Бродскому работы Георгия Франгуляна.
