Divino Amore. An Outline of the History of Sanctuary and Anthropological Commentary

Summary/Abstract: The article contributes to the review of small, peripheral, forgotten European sanctuaries. The subject of the presentation is the Sanctuary of Divino Amore in the Italian Castel di Leva located on the outskirts of Rome. Authors present its etiological legend, the source of the folk pilgrimage movement, the complex history and contemporary existence of this place, combining in their narrative the perspectives of a historian, ethnographer, theologian and a keen observer of acts of religiousness. In many church and pilgrim stories about the sanctuary the authors recognize in anthropological commentary topoi well known from the history of holy places, as well as new ones.
