Publisher's Synopsis

""A Guide to the Encyclicals of the Roman Pontiffs from Leo XIII to the Present Day, 1878-1937"" by Claudia Carlen is a comprehensive reference book that provides a detailed analysis of the encyclicals issued by the Popes during the period from 1878 to 1937. The book is organized chronologically, and it covers the encyclicals issued by the Popes from Leo XIII to Pius XI. The book begins with an introduction that provides an overview of the encyclical as a genre and its significance in the Catholic Church. The author then proceeds to provide a detailed analysis of each encyclical, including its historical context, the theological and philosophical themes it addresses, and its impact on the Church and society. The book is divided into three parts. The first part covers the encyclicals issued by Leo XIII, who served as Pope from 1878 to 1903. The second part covers the encyclicals issued by Pius X, who served as Pope from 1903 to 1914. The third part covers the encyclicals issued by Pius XI, who served as Pope from 1922 to 1939. Throughout the book, the author provides insightful commentary on the encyclicals, highlighting their relevance to contemporary issues and debates within the Catholic Church and society at large. The book is an invaluable resource for scholars, students, and anyone interested in the history and theology of the Catholic Church.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
