  13.   Excuse the intrusion, but I thought that since we were exchanging
  14. bibliographies in religious and theological history a particular request
  15. might be allowed.  --  Two Saturdays ago, in a meeting that included ates a
  16. prelates and television cameras, the Pope read a declaration *absolving*
  17. Galileo and, according to the Italian press, the Inquisition.  The event
  18. was little and incompetently covered in the American press; the Italian press
  19. press gave more but incomplete coverage.  --  Two documents are important:
  20. 1. the final report of the Papal Commission, headed by Card. Paul Poupard,
  21. which has been investigating the case for the last 13 years; and 2. the
  22. text of the Pope's own declatation.  Has anyone seen full, printed
  23. versions of these documents?  Perhaps some of our Italian colleagues?  I
  24. would very much appreciate citations.
