'+Description+': As pointed out by Desramaut 100p-c, this term was in a sense 'formalised' in the Salesian Family when on 12 September 1884, Fr Sala was debating with Don Bosco the motto for the Salesian Coat of Arms and Don Bosco insisted that from the outset his motto had been Da mihi animas cetera tolle. The term fell out of favour in Christian spirituality generally, especially in the 20th Century, even described as such by Fr Vigaṇ ('antiquato' = archaic), however he went on to say that it emphasises the most important and significant features of the human being and his or her social context. (ACS 332 1989). Fr Michael Rua tells that that Don Bosco had 'no other thought than for souls', meaning spiritual beings to be preserved in God's grace and prepared for their encounter with God in eternity.

'+Context (examples of use)+': Truly the only concern of his heart was for souls. (Rua, quoted in C. 21)

(:zapend:) (:zapform key=Type:) '''Term type''' ('EntryTerm' ''if no other applies)'' (1) (2) [Initialisms like AGC are regarded as acronyms; a term like 'Bro.' is an abbreviation; an example of short form instead would be the main part of a very long book title (most of DB's book titles! 'Giovane Provveduto' is a short form). A loan term is not translated whereas a calque is. A blend is where two (or more) morphemes or 'word' parts have been combined to form a single term, as in the case of 'austraLasia'. Choose variant when there exists at least one other common form of the term. ] (:zapend:)

Deprecated indicates official disapproval or if not disapproval, official abandonment at least. A neologism is a term that has come into play relatively recently - say, since Vatican II, but the time frame can be flexible.] (:zapend:)
