Alfonso Maria de' Liguori, Latinized Alphons(us) Maria de Ligorio (* 1696 in Marianella near Naples; † 1787 in Pagani near Salerno; German Alfons von Liguori) was an Italian lawyer, moral theologian, bishop and founder of the order (Redemptorists) , who died in 1839 canonized and made a Doctor of the Church in 1871.
Liguori also made a name for himself as a composer of spiritual songs. The most famous Italian Christmas carol Tu scendi dalle stelle was written by him.
Above all, Liguori had an influence on Catholic moral theology that continues to this day. Spiritual aspects play a major role in his thinking, which is why he was opposed to moral rigorism. A central theme for him is the practice of confession. In the auricular confession procedure, the priest is responsible for the task of getting the person confessing to communicate very specific facts.
Worship in the Catholic Church:
In 1839 Alfons de' Liguori was canonized and, in addition to this already extraordinary ecclesiastical honor, was raised to a very special rank in 1871 when he was declared a Doctor of the Church (“Doctor ecclesiae”) . In 1950, the Pope also made “Saint Alfonso” the patron saint of confessors and moral theologians. In addition to Redemptorists, there are other communities that are based on Liguori’s pastoral goals and spirituality. These include the Missionary Sisters of the Most Holy Redeemer and the lay community of the Alfons Liguori Circle of Friends. Liguori's feast day is August 1st.
The Alfons von Liguori churches are dedicated to him. The St. Alfonso Catholic School in Berlin is named after him. The Liguori biographer Thédule Rey-Mermet (“Alfons von Liguori”, Freiburg 1987) calls him a “giant in the history of spirituality” and “saint of the Enlightenment”.
