| Abstract: | Dan l-artiklu jitkellem dwar l-ewwel referenza għad-devozzjoni lejn Santa Venera f’Malta. L-awtur jispjega kif sab informazzjoni dwar Santa Venera f’dizzjunarju reliġjuż ippubblikat għall-ewwel darba fl-1644 minn Monsinjur Magri, li kien wieħed mill-ewwel awturi Maltin magħrufa. Fil-kitba tiegħu, Magri jsemmi li Santa Venera kienet verġni u martri meqjuma kemm f’Malta kif ukoll fi Sqallija, speċjalment qrib Catania. L-artiklu juri li d-devozzjoni lejn il-qaddisa kienet diġà antika u mifruxa fis-seklu sbatax, u jsemmi wkoll kif xi nies kienu jħawdu lil Santa Venera ma’ Sant’Anna minħabba li l-festi tagħhom kienu jiġu ċċelebrati fl-istess żmien. Din ir-riċerka tagħti importanza storika kbira għax tippreżenta l-eqdem referenza stampata magħrufa dwar Santa Venera f’Malta. |
