Juan Pablo Ii

Sinopsis del libro

In this new Spanish language edition of Pope John Paul II: Reaching Out Across Borders, Reuters correspondents bring together fresh, unique, and firsthand insights about Pope John Paul II, a vivid portrait of him as a man–and a realistic, forward-looking assessment of his achievements, his legacy, and the Church he leaves to his successors. This book includes coverage of the Popes May 2003 visit to Spain. Readers meet the man who, before joining the priesthood, was an athlete, an actor, a soldier, a stonecutter, and a published poet–who changed history by taking on Communism in Poland, then later denounced the spiritual impoverishment of untrammeled capitalism–who transformed the Churchs tortured relationship with the Jewish community. Also meet the moral conservative and reformer who led the Church into its third millennium, watching him face storms of debate and scandal within his church, as he carries its message of faith to every corner of the world, and presides over its explosive growth throughout the developing world. This is the only book on Pope John Paul II to draw upon the extraordinary global resources of Reuters, the worlds leading news agency. Notable amongst those resources: Vatican correspondent Philip Pullella, a world-renowned expert on Pope John Paul II who organized Reuters highly successful exhibition of Reuters photographs of the Pope that has been traveled throughout Europe coinciding with the English language versions publication.
