About the author
Pope Francis
1,321 books1,001 followersPope Francis (Latin: Franciscus; Italian: Francesco; Spanish: Francisco; born Jorge Mario Bergoglio, 17 December 1936) was the 266th Pope of the Roman Catholic Church, a title he held ex officio as Bishop of Rome, and Sovereign of the Vatican City. He chose Francis as his papal name in honor of Saint Francis of Assisi. Francis was the first Jesuit pope, the first from the Americas, the first from the Southern Hemisphere and the first non-European pope since the Syrian Gregory III, who died in 741.
Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Bergoglio worked briefly as a chemical technologist and nightclub bouncer before beginning seminary studies. He was ordained a Catholic priest in 1969 and from 1973 to 1979 was Argentina's provincial superior of the Society of Jesus. He was accused of handing two priests to the National Reorganization Process during the Dirty War, but the lawsuit was ultimately dismissed. He became the Archbishop of Buenos Aires in 1998 and was created a cardinal in 2001 by Pope John Paul II. He led the Argentine Church during the December 2001 riots in Argentina, and the administrations of Néstor Kirchner and Cristina Fernández de Kirchner considered him a political rival. Following the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI on 28 February 2013, a papal conclave elected Bergoglio as his successor on 13 March.
Throughout his public life, Pope Francis had been noted for his humility, emphasis on God's mercy, concern for the poor, and commitment to interfaith dialogue. He was credited with having a humble, less formal approach to the papacy than his predecessors, for instance choosing to reside in the Domus Sanctae Marthae guesthouse rather than in the papal apartments of the Apostolic Palace used by his predecessors. In addition, due to both his Jesuit and Ignatian aesthetic, he was known for favoring simpler vestments void of ornamentation, including refusing the traditional papal mozzetta cape upon his election, choosing silver instead of gold for his piscatory ring, and keeping the same pectoral cross he had as Cardinal. He maintained that the church should be more open and welcoming. He did not support unbridled capitalism, Marxism, or Marxist versions of liberation theology. Francis maintained the traditional views of the church regarding abortion, euthanasia, contraception, homosexuality, ordination of women, and priestly celibacy. He opposed consumerism, irresponsible development, and supported taking action on climate change, a focus of his papacy with the promulgation of Laudato si'. In international diplomacy, he helped to restore full diplomatic relations between the U.S. and Cuba.

Ce livre est un merveilleux cadeau pour notre siècle bousculé par toutes sortes d'extrêmes mortifères. Empreint d'humanisme et d'une foi bien incarnée, le Pape démontre que nous valons plus et pouvons faire mieux que ce qui nous offert dans ce monde.

Li em português e o título é "Papa Francisco - O futuro da fé. Entrevistas com o sociólogo Dominique Wolton". Gostei da estrutura do livro: entrevistas organizadas em oito capítulos/temas e ao final de cada um há dois excertos de pronunciamentos do Papa em encontros públicos.
Eu estava interessada em conhecer um pouco mais do pensamento e da história do Papa Francisco. Nem sempre consegui acompanhar todas as referências, pois sou leiga em assuntos católicos. Nesse sentido, as notas de rodapé do livro foram bem explicativas e orientadoras. Quanto aos temas abordados achei um pouco repetitivo e com uma visão muito européia, que em muito diverge da nossa experiência e visão de mundo latinoamericana. Isso inclusive foi mobilizado pelo entrevistador, que destacou reiteradamente o fato do Papa ser do "outro lado do Atlântico". No entanto, pouco se falou na colonização, na violência da colonização. Ao contrário, muita ênfase na história da Europa, nas dores da guerra e nos dilemas atuais com as migrações. No geral, vale a pena ler.

Transcript of several conversations on various topics between the late Pope Francis and Dominique Wolton. It was interesting but I wasn't impressed. I'm surprised Dominique Wolton is not at least co-author, or even more realistically the main author.

Algumas passagens sensacionais, outras um pouco superficiais mas sem duvida um livro que vale a pena ler. Recomendo.
