Page five of eleven The Vatican is the smallest sovereign state in the world, measuring only about 109 acres (44 hectares). It is ringed with centuries-old walls and entirely surrounded by the city of Rome. But it is a separate nation, formed in 1929 in a treaty with the Italian government.
This independence is the Vatican's most important secular feature because it protects the pope from outside interference. Dominated by St. Peter's Basilica and its embracing colonnade, Vatican city covers 108.7 acres on a site known to ancient Romans as Mons Vaticanus. Popes lost political power over Rome and the surrounding papal states with the unification of Italy (1861-70) but remained in residence as self-styled "prisoners of the Vatican." Mussolini's government recognized Vatican City as an independent state in the 1929 Lateran Treaty.

Page seven of eleven World leaders are drawn to the Vatican not because of its emerging economy or potential trade benefits. They come because they want to make personal contact with Pope John Paul II, the spiritual leader of more than one billion Catholics worldwide.
His undeniably influential role in the fall of communism and his tireless efforts for peace, give him great stature on the world stage. But his stands on issues like birth control and abortion, Third World debt, and religious freedom have made him controversial as well. U.S. President George W. Bush presents Pope John Paul II with a gift following their meeting at the pope's country retreat, Castel Gandolfo, July 23, 2001.

There are few experiences, even for a world leader, as daunting as being escorted through the elaborate halls of the Apostolic Palace. Along the way, thousands of years of history and power make their impression before the leader even lays his eyes on the pope.

The Swiss Guard Current profile While much of the work of the present day guards is ceremonial, they are responsible for the security at the Apostolic Palace, the papal apartment and the four main entrances to the Vatican. They are also in charge of the pontiff's physical safety when he travels outside the city state. The Swiss Guard, the world's smallest and perhaps most colorful army, has been the chief protectors of the pontiff. Clad in Renaissance helmets and blue, red and yellow tunics (the colors of the Medici family) that are said to have been designed by Michelangelo. For routine work, the guards wear blue uniforms and berets. The Swiss Guard currently consists of a total of 100 men: 4 officials, 1 chaplain, 23 noncommissioned officers, 70 halbardiers, and 2 drummers. The halbard is the traditional weapon carried by Swiss Guards. The members of the Swiss Guard reside in a barrack in Vatican City. They serve for two years, with the possibility of extending the period to a maximum of 25 years. During this period they receive training in self-defence, attend shooting practice, take course in Italian and study the organizational structure of the Vatican. At the end of the first year they must take a very thorough exam. Guard recruits must be Roman Catholic men of Swiss nationality who are single, under 30 years old and stand at least 5-feet, 8-inches tall. Guards need to have completed their initial military training in the Swiss Armed Forces, and obtained a certificate of good conduct from an ecclesiastical and a civil authority.

culture zoo Even the most jaded can't help being floored by Rome. Rome can seem almost unreal, something from a book of legends we had as kids. If your curiosity isn't piqued, even a little, to go romp around the ruins, and if the high point of centuries of art just leaves you blank, head cocked to one side saying, "Huh? I don't get it," well, at least you can tell them back home that you tried. Pantheon (Piazza della Rotonda; tel. 06/68-30-02-30; Bus 70, 81, 119, 170; 9am-6pm Mon-Sat; Free admission): Built in 27 b.c., this is one of the undisputed architectural wonders of the world (That dome! That use of space! Those 20-ton doors!) Simply put, it is beautiful, perfect, and peaceful. If you can, go when it's raining but kind of bright; it's especially great when the rain pours in through the hole in the dome onto the stone floor. Santa Cecilia in Trastevere (Piazza di Santa Cecilia; tel. 06/589-92-89; Bus 44, 75; Church and frescoes free, L2,000 admission to excavations; 10am-noon/4-6pm daily, frescoes 10-11:30am Tue, Thur): Get thee to a nunnery! No, really, this is a cool, random place to visitI mean women actually cloister themselves here, renouncing the pleasures of the flesh and all. Sadly, you can't really ogle the nuns, although they are milling about in the background, collecting your suggested donationjust check out the church and artwork.

Architects, painters, and sculptors of the highest caliber, men of letters, theologians, and humanists have come here to contribute their works. stufetta (a sort of Turkish bath) painted in 1516 by Raphael for Cardinal Bibbiena. A 15th-century defense tower built by Pope Nicholas V houses a very 20th-century bank. Contemporary art, too, has an important place in the Vatican, and includes spiritual works by Auguste Rodin, Wassily Kandinsky, Salvador Dali, and Edvard Munch. One of the most striking pieces is the big bronze sphere by Italian sculptor Arnaldo Pomodoro, created specifically for one of the Vatican's courtyards.

    Celebrating the Book in the Vatican City of Southern Letters
    During the third annual Conference for the Book, held March 31-April 2 on the University of Mississippi campus, noted author Pat Conroy pronounced Oxford the Vatican City of Southern Letters. In recent years Oxford has received acclaim for its growing literary culture. This spring, Oxford and the conference brought together book lovers from all over to celebrate the written word to honor its past and prepare for its future. The conference was once again a collaborative effort between the Center and Square Books. This year s conference leaves me wondering how on earth we can have a conference as interesting and entertaining next year, commented Richard Howorth, Square Books proprietor, who was the conference moderator. Early comers to the conference attended the Thursday night champagne-gala opening of the stage version of Oxford author Larry Brown s novel Dirty Work at the Hoka Theatre. Written by Brown and Richard Corley, the stage version originally played at the Arena Stage in Washington in 1994. The Oxford production was directed by Scott McCoy, professor of Theatre Arts at the University. McCoy conducted a nationwide search to bring together some of the finest young acting talent from such places as Dallas, Chicago, and New Albany, Mississippi, for the Oxford production. Friday morning, Barry Hannah, writer in residence at the University, instructed a packed room of aspiring writers on such topics as working with an editor and submitting a manuscript. For this popular event, Hannah was joined by publishers Nan A. Talese of Doubleday and David R. Godine of David R. Godine, Publisher, and writers Jennifer Allen, Andrei Codrescu, Mark Richard, and Geoffrey Wolff.

    ARCHAEOLOGY
    Between 1450 and 1600 ancient Rome began to emerge from beneath the shapeless pastures and deserted hills of the ancient city. Renaissance scholars identified major sites and buildings. They began the great effort of copying the ancient inscriptions that made the city itself a vast, if fragmentary, textbook about Roman history and life.
    Learning to Read Rome's Ruins
    The Origins of Archaeology: Scholars Read the City
    By the fourteenth century, Italian intellectuals were becoming fascinated by the physical as well as the literary relics of the ancient world. Rome, of course, had the grandest of all ruins, at which medieval pilgrims had long marvelled. The Roman in the street was happy to provide misinformation about sites and statues, but in the Renaissance, scholars began to measure, excavate, and identify the statues and buildings that had long amazed travellers. True, much was lost forever. When Poggio Bracciolini and a friend climbed the Capitoline Hill in 1430, the vast view that opened out before them was a desert; the ancient forum was populated only by pigs, deer, and vegetables. But by the end of the fifteenth century, Roman scholars had identified the sites of many lost buildings, compiled notebooks bulging with information, and begun to recreate the ancient city.

    INTRODUCTION
    The Vatican Library
    by Father Leonard Eugene Boyle, O.P.
    Ad decorem of 1475, then in practice between 1475 and 1481, when the redoubtable Bartolomeo Platina was his librarian. Does it really matter which pope gets the credit for founding the Vatican Library? It could be argued that it does, not least because the spirit and ideals of a founder are not without some importance when assessing the genius of a library. But there is also the plain fact that for all the beauty and decor of its physical location and the splendor of its organization, a library is not a library without books. For all that Sixtus IV is known to have contributed some of his own books to the library in his lifetime, and to have acquired others, there is also the inescapable fact that Sixtus did not have to begin from scratch. He had in fact inherited from Nicholas a large library of some 1,100 codices in Nicholas's Latin and Greek libraries, not to speak of the unrecorded contents of the Bibliotheca secreta or papal library proper. More importantly, he had inherited a library that was not simply a haphazard accumulation from the papal past, but a library whose purpose was already set.
