phrase
Quo vadis?
Surely the name of this sculpture is reminiscent of the famous movie Mervyn Le Roy (1951) entitled "QUO VADIS ? "And starring Robert Taylor and Deborah Kerr (who so often have been on TV in the period of Holy Week), logradísima film adaptation of the novel by Polish writer Henryk Sienkiewicz (1846-1916) ), who, thanks to her, received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1905. Sienkiewicz wrote this historical novel and n 1895 picking an extraordinary and immediate success, being translated into over 30 languages \u200b\u200band adapted cinematically first in 1912.
This aphorism popularized by the film of Le Roy refers to a famous passage occurred in the life of San Pedro , first Popes and successor of Jesus Christ at the head of the Christian Church during the reign of Nero, when, advised by his many disciples, was preparing to leave Rome before his impending arrest. While walking along the Via Appia, on the outskirts of the city, you see Christ, walking with the Cross. San Pedro, moved asks: "Quo vadis, Domine?", "Where you, Lord? "what Christ says," I'm going to Rome to be crucified again. "This response, which announces the forthcoming crucifixion of Peter in Rome, the apostle decides to return to the city and face value its destination.
reproduce here an excerpt from the legend that had originated in the third century, in times of San Lino, second successor of Peter and Christian Pope .
"And on the first night, once they entered religious acts, took leave of the brethren, and leaving them in God's hands, left alone. And as we walk felt his knees fell and bands worn by the shackles. But when he reached the gates of the city to get away, saw him step out to Christ. Peter fell to his knees in a gesture of adoration before the Lord, and said, 'Lord, Quo vadis, where are you going? "Saith Christ:" I come to Rome to be crucified again. " And Peter said to him: 'How Lord! Will you be crucified again? "Then said the Lord:" So, again I have to be put on cross. " Peter said to him "I will go back and I follow."
After these words the Lord ascended into heaven. Long time Peter followed him with his eyes and the sweetest eyes filled with tears. And recollecting itself, she realized that what the Lord had said, referring to his own death, by which the Lord would again suffer the Passion. "
