Saint Aloysius Gonzaga:Patron Of Youth Saint Aloysius Gonzaga was born in Castiglione della Stiviere on the 9th of March 1568 in the region of Mantua in Northern Italy Aloysius took this to mean he could go, he with speed of movement swiftly left and took refuge in a nearby religious house until he could continue his journey to the Jesuits. As a saint who fasted, scourged himself, sought solitude and prayer and did not look on the faces of women, Aloysius seems an unlikely patron of youth in a society where asceticism is confined to training camps of football teams and boxers, and sexual permissiveness has little left to permit. www.freerepublic.com /focus/religion/703948/posts   (327 words)

G.R. No. L-34418 She further testified that accused-appellant Estelito Arias was a tenant of Javier Gonzaga and even had a house within the coconut plantation. When her husband was shot, they were no longer tenants of Javier Gonzaga, as they were ejected from the land by him in 1969, and her common-law husband intended to file a case against Javier Gonzaga in the Court of Agrarian Relations. The appealed decision is set aside insofar as the now-deceased Javier Gonzaga was likewise found guilty of the same offense, his death occurring during the pendency of this appeal. www.lawphil.net /judjuris/juri1977/may1977/gr_34418_1977.html   (575 words)

THE SURVIVAL OF THE JUS HONORUM AND THE [4] It is also useful to remember that Monferrato was a feudal state of the Roman Holy Empire, and that the Houses of Gonzaga and Savoy were legitimately invested by the Roman Emperors. Monferrato then passed to Federico Gonzaga, husband of Margherita, nephew and heir of Giovan Giorgio, who was invested by the Emperor Charles V with the Marquessate of Monferrato in 1536, which was then annexed to Mantova, both being elevated some time later into a Duchy (14 Jan 1574). For this reason the Head of the Royal House of Savoy also used the title of Duke of Monferrato (the title was used a subsidiary title of the House of Savoy, being granted for the last time to Prince Oddone, son of Victor Emmanuel II, who died in 1866 without heirs). www.chivalricorders.org /royalty/fantasy/vigo.htm   (6079 words)

Monferrini in America The Treaty of Cherasco (1631) assigned parts of Montferrat to the house of Savoy, and the rest (including Casale) followed the fortunes of the duchy of Mantua and passed to the Nevers (French) branch of the Gonzaga family. With the extinction of the Paleologo line, Emperor Charles V gave (1536) Montferrat to the Gonzaga family of Mantua, despite the claims of the house of Savoy. After Francesco Gonzaga's death in 1612, Savoy renewed its claims on Montferrat and invaded (1613) the region. www.monferrini.com /storia.html   (6079 words)

THE SURVIVAL OF THE JUS HONORUM AND THE The new Marquis was Giovanni II Paleologo but the House of Savoy did not renounce its claim and all the member of this family from that time always used the quarter of pretension to Monferrato in their coat of arms. For this reason the Head of the Royal House of Savoy also used the title of Duke of Monferrato (the title was used a subsidiary title of the House of Savoy, being granted for the last time to Prince Oddone, son of Victor Emmanuel II, who died in 1866 without heirs). Indeed when members of the Bourbon Two Sicilies House came to Italy for the marriage of a Bourbon Princess to a Savoy Prince earlier this century, in their passports, court protocol, and official acts, they were accorded and treated with all the titles and attributes they legitimately possessed. www.chivalricorders.org /royalty/fantasy/vigo.htm   (6079 words)

CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Mantua From 1466 to 1584, the See of Mantua was occupied by bishops of the House of Gonzaga: Cardinals Francesco, Ludovico, Sigismondo, Ercole, Federigo, Francesco II, Marco Fedele; only in 1566 was this series interrupted, by the Dominican Gregorio Boldrino. After Alessandro Andreasi (1584-87), who founded a house for Jewish converts and a hospital for sick pilgrims, the diocese was once more governed by a Gonzaga, Cardinal Franceso III (1587-1620), a Franciscan whose secular name was Annibale. Mention should be made also of Mgr Pietro Rota (1871-79), who was the object of much persecution at the hands of the government, and of Guiseppe Sarto (1884-95), now Pius X. www.newadvent.org /cathen/09611b.htm   (1374 words)
