The schedule for this year’s other appointments.

Lectio Petri – Cantico dei Cantici is a series of events organized by the Cortile dei Gentili Foundation and the Fratelli tutti Foundation to explore—with an eye toward the present—the Cantico dei Cantici.

Prominent figures from the worlds of culture, entertainment, media, and institutions will engage in dialogue with Cardinal Ravasi and offer their secular perspectives in light of the themes that emerge from the readings.

The evening will be enriched by moments of musical meditation.

We remind you that the second edition of this initiative gave rise to a podcast series available in multiple episodes. Listen to them
