Vatican Radio

Radio, at least, did not present all these dangers. Of course, the Church recommended vigilance, but the medium was somehow considered intrinsically practicable. So the Vatican equipped itself with its own antenna, Vatican Radio, whose mission is still to make "the voice of the pope" heard.

His holiness was then called Pius XI. Ambrogio Achille Damiano Ratti, his baptismal name, knew how to gain respect. We owe him the papal appearance on the balcony of Saint Peter's. He was described as authoritarian, capable of irony, and above all able to face the new strongman in power, Benito Mussolini, an anticlerical whose ideology PIUS XI did not appreciate. After the Lateran Accords signed in 1929 precisely with the Duce, here he was at the head of the newly gambling data south africa created Vatican State. A State now able to have ITS radio. And in the context of the time, politically torn between fascism, Nazism and communism, and tormented by the media, confronted with the evils of image, this seemed highly necessary. This was all the more feasible since Italy counted among its citizens one of the great inventors of radio techniques, Guglielmo Marconi. And it is he who will be responsible for the implementation of the transmitter located within the very walls of the micro-state.



G. Marconi

On February 12, 1931, Catholics discovered the voice of their sovereign pontiff on the airwaves of Radio Vatican : "...Being the first to use from here the admirable work of Marconi, We address Ourselves for the first time to all men and to all things, telling them, now and hereafter, the words of Holy Scripture... Glory to God who in these days has given men such power that their accents reach to the ends of the world."

PIUS XI, “journalists are loudspeakers”



The installation of the Vatican transmitter

Universality, real time, force of influence, Pius XI was well aware of the powers and stakes that were his, like the other powerful people of the planet. Four days later, his encyclical Casti Connubii, took up the verdict of the Bishop of Vicenza. Cinema was described as "evil", in the same way as these "varieties", these shows that "adolescents of both sexes" went to see in theaters with a "disappointing assiduity".
