The Church and the World: Gaudium et spes, Inter mirifica (Rediscovering the Vatican II) - Softcover
Synopsis
Gaudium et Spes was one of the key documents to come out of Vatican II. It created a new chapter in conciliar history because for the first time a general council sought to tackle a wide range of problems that affected the life of Catholics: human rights, society, marriage and the family, culture, politics, economics, international relations, and war and peace. This decree corresponded more closely than any other to Pope John XXIII's desire that Vatican II's approach be pastoral, and because of that it may be considered the "crown jewel" of the council.
In this book Norman Tanner, the foremost authority on the decree, traces its evolution from its beginnings to its eventual promulgation at the end of the council in December 1965. He reviews its reception by the Catholic Church and other Christian churches, and its possible future influence.
--Gives everyday Catholics a look at the inner workings of the council
--those who have heard about Vatican II, but never really known what its significance for them and their Church is will read this book with interest.
--for the first time tells the story of this decree both at the council and subsequently
--a useful teaching tool in colleges, seminaries, church circles, and for individuals
