MARIN-SOLA, FRANCESCO. - Dominican theologian, b. at Carcar (Spain) on 22 Nov. 1873, d. at Manila on 5 June 1932. Having landed in the Philippines (17 July 1897) and been ordained priest on the following 18 Sept., he went as a missionary to the north
of the Island of Luzon, where he remained a prisoner in the hands of the insurgents for 16 months. Having returned to Manila at the beginning of 1900, he began teaching at the College of S. Giovanni in Laterano. Because of his frail health he frequently changed residence; in 1906 he taught at Avila, shortly afterwards again in the Philippines (University of S. Tommaso), later in the United States, from 1918 to 1927 at Fribourg
(by courtesy of Fr. G. B. Tragella) MARINONI, GIUSEPPE - Portrait. (Switzerland), and from 1929 until his death once again in Manila, as dean of the faculty of theology.His principal work, which aroused both sympathy and vigorous opposition from the time it appeared in a long series of articles in La ciencia tomista (1911–23), was entitled La evolución homogénea del dogma católico (Madrid 1923). M. attempted to solve other long-standing Thomist problems, for example concerning physical causality and the reviviscence of the Sacraments, physical premotion. He contributed to the Philippine newspaper Liberty, of which he was also editor for a time, and to the Divus Thomas of Friburgo.
