Pope Francis addresses a conference attended by prominent artists and directors including Martin Scorsese, a day after canceling his regular work schedule due to a fever
Returning to his duties on Saturday, Francis made a speech at the event at the Vatican, which was called “The Global Esthetics of the Catholic Imagination,” the Vatican News reported. Speaking of his love of literature, he said, according to the title: “The words of those authors helped me to understand myself, the world and my people, but also to understand more profoundly the human heart, my personal life of faith, and my pastoral work, even now in my present ministry.
On Thursday, the Vatican Secretary of State, Cardinal Pietro Parolin, said Francis was “tired” after a “very intense day,” according to Italian news agency ANSA. “The Pope was tired. Yesterday he had a very intense day and saw many people. There was the meeting with Scholas Occurrentes and he wanted to greet each person individually. At a certain point, one becomes less resistant,” Parolin said.
