    The-Man-in-the-Iron-Mask (eBook, ePUB)
    The Iron Mask was an individual whose identity has never really been ascertained and which of the historical records say he was a prisoner during the reign of Louis XIV of France. Among the authors who took an interest in his case were Voltaire above all and Alexandre Dumas father, who made him a character in the novel The Viscount of Bragelonne. Numerous films were inspired by that episode of Dumas' novel, with varying degrees of fidelity. Casanova also mentions the Iron Mask in his biographical work History of my life, in Chapter XXIV, where he affirms that his French teacher, Crébillion, the old man who had been Royal Censor, received from King Louis XIV the confidence that he was not no iron mask ever existed and that it was a legend. It is also said that it was a minister of the Duke of Mantua, named Mattioli, who was simultaneously in the service of Louis XIV and would have betrayed him.

    Jesus of Nazareth: The Heart of Catechesis, Hörbuch, Digital, 69min
    Fr. Virgilio Elizondo makes clear that the catechetical core of the Church is knowing, living, remembering, proclaiming, and celebrating Jesus of Nazareth, who becomes alive in each one of us as our Savior. Elizondo mentions that Church teaching in the past encouraged many beautiful and legitimate devotions, but none replaces a personal encounter with Jesus. Elizondo integrates his talk about Jesus with two basic tenets of faith: In all creation only man and woman are created in the image of God; and all of us need to contend with the mystery of evil. This presentation was recorded before an audience at the 1996 Los Angeles Religious Education Congress. Language: English. Narrator: Virgilio Elizondo.
