Schmidt S.). HEBDOMADA SANCTA, three volumes, (Herder, 1956, 1957).

S. Pio XII sull'uso degli armamenti bellici moderni Abstract: Le norme del diritto internazionale vietano in modo generale l'uso di armi, proiettili o materie inutilmente dolorose o atte a causare mali e danni superflui. L'interpretazlone di questa norma di diritto internazionale ha suscitato numerosissime discussioni, specialmente in questi ultimi tempi, per quanto riguarda alcuni nuovi mezzi di guerra, quali sono le armi atomiche e nucleari, biologiche e chimiche, sviluppate durante e dopo il secondo conflitto mondiale. 1958-01-01T00:00:00Z https://www.um.edu.mt/library/oar/handle/123456789/24686 Title: Casus moralis : de partu sine dolore et de usu narcoticorum Abstract: Lucia, quotiescumque ad parturiendum pervenit, maximos atque diuturnos dolores patitur. Medicus, tamquam minus malum, Luciae suadet ut deinceps rem male cum viro suo habeat eique analgesim administret, quod idem saepe facit cum moribundis et cum aegrotis in periculo mortis, ut dolores naturales supprimat. Cajus, infirmorum confessarius, innixus textu S. Scripturae 'fu dolore paries filios', medicum, ob suum modum agendi cum Lucia suaviter reprehendit et usum narcoticorum oronino ei prohibet, quia ita' aegroci saepius inconscii moriuntur et aliquando eorum vita abbreviarur. Coeterum et Christus agonizans in cruce vinum. felle mixtum respuit ne dolores ejus minuerentur. 1958-01-01T00:00:00Z https://www.um.edu.mt/library/oar/handle/123456789/24685 Title: Catholic Pentateuchal studies (1906-56) Abstract: It was at a very indecisive stage of Catholic Pentateuchal studies that the Pontifical Commission for Biblical Studies issued a Decree on the authenticity of the Pentateuch in 1906. This decree was fundamentally a disciplinary.measure, and in no way did it solve the question; its gist was that the documentary theory as a whole, as proposed and defended by the independent critics, was not yet apolitically proved as to command unreserved assent. Neither did the decree condemn those Catholics who adopted critical methods as such in their Biblical studies; on the contrary the Commission, in admitting the possibility of later additions and even of scribes in collaboration with Moses, encouraged such lines of investigation. 1958-01-01T00:00:00Z
