The Pontifical Academy for Latin () is the eleventh and newest pontifical academy. Headquartered in the Vatican City, it was established for the promotion and appreciation of the Latin language and culture. The Academy replaces the Latinitas Foundation and is linked to the Pontifical Council for Culture on which it depends. It was founded on 10 November 2012 by Pope Benedict XVI with the motu proprio ''Latina Lingua'',〔Benedict XVI, Motu Proprio (''Latina Lingua'' ) in English; accessed 6-11-2013〕 with a view to preserve and spread knowledge of the different versions of modern and ancient Latin, including and emphasizing, but by no means limited to, ecclesiastical Latin (Church Latin) as used in the liturgies and Masses of the current Roman Missal of the 2011 Mass of Pope Paul VI (the current one, which is usually said in the vernacular language, or local people's language), as well as the Mass of Pope John XXIII (the most recent version of the pre-Vatican II Tridentine Mass, or Latin Mass, the earlier and alternative form; some groups, such as the Society of Saint Pius X, use an even earlier form of the Tridentine Mass, the Mass of Pope Pius XII). Professor Ivano Dionigi and Reverend Father Roberto Spataro were on 10 November 2012 named respectively the inaugural president and secretary of the academy.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.microsofttranslator.com/BV.aspx?ref=IE8Activity&a=http%3A%2F%2Fpress.catholica.va%2Fnews_services%2Fbulletin%2Fnews%2F30003.php%3Findex%3D30003%26lang%3Den )〕 ==Aims== * to encourage the knowledge and study of Latin — language and literature, classical and patristic, Medieval and humanistic — in particular at the Catholic institutions for formation at which both seminarians and priests are trained and taught; *to promote the use of Latin in various contexts, both as a written and as a spoken language. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pontifical Academy for Latin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
