Collegamento pro Sindone






This page was originally designed as the Gateway page to English translations of selected articles originally published in Italian in the excellent publication by Emanuela Marinelli (and many other noted Shroud scholars), Collegamento pro Sindone. Now, in June 2021, Emanuela has agreed to allow us to begin reprinting and publishing the complete archive of the printed issues of this important Italian language publication here on Shroud.com. You will now find links to those earlier printed issues in the Archive of Printed Issues section below, and we will continue to add issues until the entire archive is complete. To find out more about the Collegamento pro Sindone organization and the individuals who produce this publication, click on the Italian Flag in the upper right corner of this page. To review the Collegamento pro Sindone Index or to select an article to read in English, just click on the appropriate link in the English Language Translations of Select Articles section below.

Also, you can click here to visit the Collegamento pro Sindone Website. Presented in Italian and English, this beautiful website includes many scientific, theologic and historical articles as well as photographs of the Cathedral and Chapel, a map of geographical areas related to the Shroud, an illustrated Shroud history, an annotated photographic map of the Shroud, links to other Shroud websites and much more. Created and maintained by Maurizio Marinelli, it has grown into one of the most important Shroud websites on the Internet.

The site includes a link to the Marinelli Collection's massive listing of Scientific Articles on the Collegamento's website. This list contains hundreds of entries and is an excellent resource for Shroud researchers when used in conjunction with the "Shroud Booklist" on this website and other information found on the Internet. I am also proud to report that there is now an Italian Translation of the article I presented at the June 1998 Turin Symposium, "The Role of the Internet In The Future of Shroud Research," as well as an English Version on the Collegamento's site.
