| description | This official correspondence, dated 21 October 1926, originates from the Secretariat of State of His Holiness at the Vatican and is addressed to His Excellency Augusto de Castro, Minister of Portugal to the Holy See. The document, classified under reference number 57145 and marked for citation in reply, serves as a formal invitation to a significant ecclesiastical event. It announces that on Thursday, 28 October 1926, at 8 a.m., Pope Pius XI will confer episcopal consecration upon six Chinese bishops in the Vatican Basilica. The undersigned, Cardinal Pietro Gasparri, Cardinal Secretary of State, extends the invitation to the Portuguese Minister and the entire staff of his Legation, noting that members of the Most Eminent Diplomatic Corps will be granted access through the Porta di Santa Marta. This primary source reflects the diplomatic protocols of the Holy See during the early 20th century and highlights the internationalisation of the Catholic Church’s hierarchy, particularly in relation to China. As a formal state communication within Vatican diplomatic channels, the document provides evidence of Sino-Vatican ecclesiastical relations and the integration of non-European clergy into the episcopate during the interwar period. It is a valuable resource for researchers examining religious diplomacy, colonial-era ecclesiastical policy, and the globalisation of Catholicism in the 1920s. Doc.95 |
