Eugenio Pacelli - Pius XII (1876-1958)
One of the most prominent and controversial personalities in the 20th-century history of the church is revealed in this
collection of current research on Pope Pius XII, Eugenio Pacelli. The featured lectures complement the Papal Committee for Historical Scholarship’s biographical exhibit on
Pacelli, addressing topics surrounding the pope with regard to modernity, the Jewish people, Michael Cardinal Faulhaber, and the judgment of posterity.
The lectures are supplemented by the moderators’ statements, the presentations from the exhibition’s opening in Munich, and an article about sources on Eugenio Pacelli in Munich’s church archives. Eloquently contributing to the scholarly debate on the life and works of this
influential figure, this compilation features authors such as Archbishop Dr. Reinhard Marx, Dr. Walter Brandmüller, Dr. Karl-Joseph Hummel, Dr. Manfred Weitlauff, and more.
