Carlo Papini

07/02/2020

The Council and the teaching staff of the Waldensian Faculty of Theology participate in the mourning of the family, the Union of Methodist and Waldensian Churches and the Claudiana Publishing House for the death of Carlo Papini. 
During the long decades in which he directed the Claudiana, Carlo was an invaluable support for the theological task of the Faculty, which in 2002 awarded him an honorary degree in theology. His work as an editor was a vocation for him, in the highly articulated sense that Protestant tradition attributes to this term; he was also characterized by a great passion and extreme precision: whoever collaborated with him knew that he could count on editorial work of the highest level. It is worth mentioning Carlo Papini's particular passion for history, a field in which he made important contributions not only as a publisher, but also as an author. 
The Faculty remembers with gratitude what he received from him.
