Abstract: Wiehed mill-mumenti decizivi ta' dan il-millenju fl-istorja taghna l-Mostin u ta' Malta kien il-bini tar-Rotunda. Kienet ghadma iebsa fil-bidu, matul u wara l-bini taghha. Bejn id-dibattitu fejn kellha tinbena, in-nuqqas ta' mezzi u xxetticizmu ta' xi Maltin l-impriza ga kienet difficli. Ghamlu tajjeb il-fehma tal-kotra u d-dehen tal-mexxejja sekulari u religjuzi, fosthom Gorg Grognet. Nistghu nghidu li dan l-arkitett inginier twieled u ghex biss ghar-Rotunda. B'turija u b' konferma baqa' nieqes minn dak li suppost messu u ghex f'faqar u cahda tal-wahx. Ghalih nistghu tabilhaqq nghidu li ftaqar. Kieku ried Grognet kien jghix hajja komda ghax bil-privatijiet li seta' jaghti u b'xi xoghol iehor li ghalih kien imfittexkien jigbor dhul tajjeb.
