The focus in this volume is the Second Vatican council’s interrelated teaching on revelation, the church, ecumenism, and education.
Sixty years after the close of the Second Vatican Council, its vision continues to shape—and to be shaped by—the global Catholic Church. This volume, the second in the Vatican II After Sixty Years series, returns to the conciliar debates and drafting processes through which that vision was forged, and asks how the Council’s foundational dynamic of aggiornamento might still illuminate the questions of our own time. The volume gathers leading scholars from Europe, North and South America, the Middle East, and Asia. Massimo Faggioli opens with a wide-ranging call for an aggiornamento of the historiography of Vatican II itself. Subsequent chapters by Karim Schelkens and Riccardo Burigana shed fresh light on the debates surrounding Dei Verbum; Gilles Routhier, Rodrigo Polanco, and Rolando Iberico Ruiz uncover the distinctive Canadian, Latin American, and Peruvian contributions to Lumen Gentium; Jose Maripurath Devassy, Archbishop Michel Jalakh, and Catherine E. Clifford reassess the Council’s engagement with the Eastern Catholic Churches and ecumenism; and Mathijs Lamberigts and Isaak Deman trace the intricate genesis of Gravissimum Educationis.Together, these essays integrate the “spirit” behind the “letter” of Vatican II, opening new horizons for its ongoing reception throughout a global Roman Catholic Church.
