  • Anthony Kohlmann SJ (born Anton; July 13, 1771 – April 11, 1836) was an Alsatian Catholic priest, missionary, theologian, and Jesuit educator. He played a decisive role in the early formation of the Diocese of New York, where he was the subject of a lawsuit that for the first time recognized the confessional privilege in the United States, and served as the president of Georgetown College from 1817 to 1820. Kohlmann joined the Society of the Sacred Heart and ministered throughout Europe before entering the Society of Jesus. He left for the United States in 1806, where he taught at Georgetown College and ministered to German-speaking congregations in the mid-Atlantic region. In 1808, he became the pastor of New York City's only Catholic church, and then was made the apostolic administrator and first vicar general of the newly created Diocese of New York. He established the diocese's first cathedral in 1809. Kohlmann also founded a school, the New York Literary Institution; established an orphanage; and invited the first Ursuline nuns to the United States. In 1813, the City of New York sought to compel Kohlmann to disclose the identity of a thief, which he learned during a confession. In a landmark decision, the state court ruled that he could not be compelled to violate the seal of the confessional, recognizing the confessional privilege for the first time in the United States. Kohlmann returned to Maryland in 1815 as superior of the Jesuits' Maryland Mission and president of Georgetown College. Three years later, he left Georgetown to establish the Washington Seminary, which became Gonzaga College High School. In 1824, Pope Leo XII named Kohlmann the chair of theology at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome. Kohlmann later became a consultor to the College of Cardinals and various curial congregations, and was then appointed Qualificator of the Inquisition. (en)

  • Anthony Kohlmann SJ (nascido Antoine Kohlmann; 13 de julho de 1771 — 11 de abril de 1836) foi um padre católico da Alsácia, missionário e educador jesuíta. Ele desempenhou um papel decisivo na formação da Diocese de Nova York, onde foi objeto de uma acção judicial que pela primeira vez reconheceu o privilégio confessional nos Estados Unidos, e serviu como presidente da Universidade de Georgetown de 1817 a 1820. Fugindo da perseguição aos católicos durante a Revolução Francesa, Kohlmann ingressou na Sociedade do Sagrado Coração e ministrou em toda a Europa. Depois, entrou na Companhia de Jesus e partiu para os Estados Unidos como missionário em 1806, onde ensinou no Colégio de Georgetown e ministrou a congregações de língua alemã na região do médio atlântico. Em 1808 tornou-se administrador apostólico e vigário-geral da recém-criada Diocese de Nova York, na ausência do seu primeiro bispo. Ele também foi pastor da única igreja católica da cidade e estabeleceu a primeira catedral da diocese em 1809. Ele também fundou a Instituição Literária de Nova York, que acabou por levar para a área rural da actual Catedral de São Patrício, estabeleceu um orfanato e introduziu as freiras ursulinas nos Estados Unidos. Em 1813 Kohlmann foi alvo de uma acção judicial para obrigá-lo a revelar a identidade de um ladrão cuja identidade ele descobriu durante uma confissão. DeWitt Clinton decidiu que o governo não poderia obrigá-lo a violar o selo do confessionário, estabelecendo o privilégio confessional pela primeira vez nos Estados Unidos. Kohlmann voltou a Maryland em 1815 como superior da Missão dos Jesuítas de Maryland e presidente da Universidade de Georgetown. Três anos depois deixou Georgetown para estabelecer o Seminário de Washington. Tomando conhecimento dos seus escritos sobre o unitarismo, o Papa Leão XII nomeou Kohlmann para a cadeira de teologia da Pontifícia Universidade Gregoriana de Roma em 1824. Ele ascendeu a consultor do Colégio dos Cardeais e de várias congregações da Cúria, culminando na sua nomeação como Qualificador da Inquisição. (pt)

  • It is essential to the free exercise of religion, that its ordinances should be administered—that its ceremonies as well as its essentials should be protected... Secrecy is the essence of penance. The sinner will not confess, nor will the priest receive his confession, if the veil of secrecy is removed. (en)
