| 现在罗马仅有三万人居住，而在帝国时期这一数字是一百万。这座曾经统领着全世界的城市成了诗人彼特拉克笔下所描绘的——“历史的垃圾堆”。然而罗马却将以一种出人意料的方式得到救赎。将拯救罗马命运的这一位女人，神庙遗址圣母堂(The church of Santa Maria sopra Minerva) 是她最后的长眠之地。她的名字是卡特里纳·贝宁卡萨，她另一个名号“锡耶纳的圣凯瑟琳”则更为人熟知。她一生之中很长时间里都处在一种极度喜悦的状态，一种长时的深度冥想中。而且据说她是一位极虔诚的教徒。公元1370年，凯瑟琳23岁。她对罗马的衰败深感痛心。她认为，教皇既已抛下他的城市，那么他就已经背叛了基督教本身。对信徒们来说，教皇毋庸置疑是第一任罗马主教圣彼得的自然继承人。而教皇要行使他的权利，必须立足于神圣之城进而统治（整个基督教界）。 |
