Reseña del editor
This volume collects and reproduces original bits of wisdom from all of the popes, enabling the reader to trace the evolution of papal views and opinions. Each chapter places an issue in its historical context, reveals the thought and experiences of the individual popes out of which their official pronouncements emerged, and explores the sometimes violent opposition that met papal statements and actions. The Church's position on human rights is traced through 2000 years up to its most complete expression in John XXIII's encyclical, "Pacem in Terris". There are plenty of surprises; the popes began speaking out against slavery in 1432; when sweat shops and child labor were the norm, Leo XIII condemned the exploitation of workers and defended the workers' right to unionize. And contrary to popular opinion, Pius XII was not only vocal in his denunciation of the Nazis, but he was also extremely active in rescuing Jews during World War II. This is a fascinating, relevant book that will give you immediate access to the wisdom and guidance of the popes, for both believers and the historically curious.

Hardcover. Condición: As New. First Edition, First Printing. pp. xiv, 235. Small 8vo. Publisher's red boards, gilt lettering to the spine. Bright, clean, and unmarked. Appears unread; as new and housed in fine dustjacket. "The Wisdom of the Popes by Thomas J. Craughwell is a kind of Bartlett's Familiar Quotations of the papacy--a collection of statements about various religious and social issues by popes going all the way back to St. Peter. Beginning with theological topics ("Who God Is," "Jesus Christ, True God and True Man," "The Holy Spirit"); Craughwell proceeds to consider papal wisdom regarding worship and ethics ("God rewards nothing but charity, for charity alone honors God," wrote Clement XI in 1713); and finally to papal pronouncements about such controversial matters as slavery, the Holocaust, and communism. Each of the book's 21 chapters is quite short, offering little analysis or historical context for its quotations. Nevertheless, The Wisdom of the Popes is a provocative resource for readers seeking to understand some of the Church's timeless teachings, and the book will surely compel many of those readers to dig more deeply into the questions it raises.".
