Abstract
Acknowledgement: The author would like to thank the late Rev. Paul Caruana for his help in the translation of the original sources from Italian into English and Alessandra Bianco for her assistance in gathering historical photographic material related to Mosta Church.
This paper focuses on the Mosta Rotunda, the parish church of Mosta. Its construction started soon after the island became a colony. Its dome is an imposing architectural statement and a feat of building engineering structure in local masonry. Modelled on Hadrian’s Pantheon in Rome (118-128 AD), it has the third largest dome of any Christian church in Europe. It was designed in the Neoclassical idiom by the architect-engineer Giorgio Grognet de Vassé (1774-1862) who also supervised its construction. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the building science and professional ethics underlying the design and construction of this outstanding nineteenth-century church.

    L-istatwi u l-kwadri titulari ta' Santa Marija f'pajjizna

    Brincat, Duncan (Union Print Co., 2018-08-11)
    Il-kult Marjan f’Malta, partikolarment fil-festa ta’ Marija Assunta, hu wiehed antik. Il-festa popolari ta’ Santa Marija bdiet fi zmien il-Medju Evu u b’hekk m’ghandna l-ebda dokumentazzjoni dwar dan. F’Malta u Ghawdex insibu seba’ parrocci li jiccelebraw il-festa titulari taghhom ta’ Santa Marija nhar il-15 ta’ Awwissu: H’Attard, il-Mosta, il-Gudja, Hal Ghaxaq, l-Imqabba, il-Qrendi u r-Rabat Ghawdex. Tliet Parrocci ohra jiccelebraw din il-festa Hadd wara il-15 ta’ Awwissu: Had-Dingli, l-Imgarr u z-Zebbug Ghawdex.

    Ir-rabta taghna l-Maltin mat-twemmin Nisrani tmur lura sekli shah. Ic-celebrazzjonijiet f’gieh il-qaddisin protetturi tal-irhula taghna ma hallejniehomx fil-knejjes biss. Sehem kbir minnhom hrigniehom fl-imsierah, fil-pjazez u fi triqatna.
