Romano Amerio (1905-1997) who taught for decades at the Academy of Lugano in Switzerland, also attended the Second Vatican Council as a peritus. Professor Amerio noted the unceremonious treatment given Veterum Sapientia in his magnum opus Iota Unum: …(the document) which had been so loudly praised as useful and opportune, was completely wiped from memory and is not cited in any conciliar document. Some biographies of John XXIII do not mention it at all, just as if it did not exist, and never had; while the more arrogant accounts mention it simply as an error. There is not, in the whole history of the Church, another instance of a document’s being so solemnly emphasized, and then being so unceremoniously cast out so soon afterwards, like the corpse of an executed criminal.
