Marian Apparitions on the Internet in the Late Twentieth Century

Voices, Visions, Apparitions
By Paolo Apolito
English

The episode of the visions and Marian apparitions in Medjugorje in ex-Yugoslavia seems to open a new era of the history of apparitions. Under the influence of America and the Internet clairvoyants have acquired an international dimension and their profile does no longer correspond to the classical one that prevailed until the 90s. They became emancipated and their visions are beyond the usual validation procedures. As a paradoxal effect of the Internet, the clairvoyant is now more anonymous and his “messages” are scattered among exchanges with invisible protagonists.
