This article offers observations on two problems. The first one examines the relationship between Vatican council ii and Pope Francis. What interpretation of the council has the current pope formed, and what significance does he attribute to it? The essay seeks furthermore to interrogate which of the legacies of Vatican ii has pope Jorge Mario Bergoglio chosen to make his own. This essay argues that the pope’s reception of the vision of a conciliar Church, operating within and amidst human history and its concrete problems has been accompanied by Francis’s emphasis on the path of mercy as the most significant legacy of Vatican council ii – and as the council’s most effective and evangelical proposition fielded to confront the anxieties of today’s men and women.
L’articolo offre alcune osservazioni intorno a due questioni. In primo luogo si esamina il rapporto tra il Concilio Vaticano II e papa Francesco: che interpretazione ne ha elaborato, quale significato gli ha attribuito? Inoltre l’articolo cerca di rilevare quale sia l’eredità del Vaticano II raccolta dal pontificato di Jorge Mario Bergoglio. In definitiva la ricezione conciliare di una chiesa che opera nella storia dell’umanità e che si misura con le sue concrete problematiche, appare avere spinto Francesco a indicare la via della misericordia come l’eredità del Vaticano II e la proposta più efficace, nella logica del Vangelo, di fronte alle inquietudini delle donne e degli uomini contemporanei.

Abstract
This article offers observations on two problems. The first one examines the relationship between Vatican council ii and Pope Francis. What interpretation of the council has the current pope formed, and what significance does he attribute to it? The essay seeks furthermore to interrogate which of the legacies of Vatican ii has pope Jorge Mario Bergoglio chosen to make his own. This essay argues that the pope’s reception of the vision of a conciliar Church, operating within and amidst human history and its concrete problems has been accompanied by Francis’s emphasis on the path of mercy as the most significant legacy of Vatican council ii – and as the council’s most effective and evangelical proposition fielded to confront the anxieties of today’s men and women.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
