In 1597, the Franciscan Observant friar Angelo Galioto, Master of Theology and Philosophy, published a pro-Catholic text entitled Relatione dello scisma anglicano, e del glorioso martirio del b.p.f. Giovanni Foresta francescano osservante: e di altri santi martiri d’Inghilterra nella persecutione d’Enrico Ottavo (Palermo, Giovanni Antonio De Franceschi). The work was dedicated to Ludovico Foresta, a relative of Blessed Giovanni, who had been the confessor of the Queen of England Catherine of Aragon and had suffered detention and martyrdom (1538) for having disapproved of the sovereign in his plan for divorce. The work had a clear apologetic purpose, as it was not limited to describing the different stages of the schism but clearly advocated the Catholic revenge of Princess Mary against Elizabeth of England. The author also took the opportunity to celebrate an illustrious victim of the persecuted Catholicism, thus spreading glory over the Franciscan Observant Order to which both he and the martyr belonged. Finally, it is very interesting to notice the existence of two different emissions for the same edition; in fact, the second version offers a more extensive and updated account of the Catholics’ persecutions in England during the last quarter of the 16th century.
En 1597, el fraile franciscano observante Angelo Galioto, maestro de teología y filosofía, publicó en Palermo un texto filocatólico titulado Relatione dello scisma anglicano, e del glorioso martirio del b.p.f. Giovanni Foresta francescano osservante: e di altri santi martiri d’Inghilterra nella persecutione d’Enrico Ottavo. La obra se dedicó a Ludovico Foresta, un familiar del beato Giovanni, que había sido el confesor de la Reina de Inglaterra Catalina de Aragón, y había sufrido la cárcel y el martirio (1538) por haber desaprobado al soberano en su designio de divorcio. La obra tenía un claro propósito apologético, ya que no se limitaba a una descripción de las diversas etapas del cisma, sino que apoyaba la venganza católica de la Princesa María contra Isabel de Inglaterra. El autor aprovechaba la ocasión para celebrar una víctima ilustre de la catolicidad perseguida, y así también lograba esparcir gloria sobre la Orden franciscana observante, a la que pertenecían tanto él como el mártir. Por último, es apropriado observar la presencia de dos emisiones diferentes de la misma edición; de hecho, la segunda presenta un relato más extenso y actualizado sobre las persecuciones de los católicos en Inglaterra en el último cuarto del siglo XVI.
