<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>In his new encyclical "FRATELLI TUTTI", Pope Francis calls for a more fraternal society that does not just continue as before after the Corona crisis.</p><p><br></p><p>What are the great ideals and the concretely practicable ways for those who want to build a more just and fraternal world in daily relationships, in society, in politics, in institutions? This is the question that <em>"Fratelli tutti"</em> intends to answer: the Pope defines it as a "social encyclical" which takes its title from the 'Admonitions' of St. Francis of Assisi, who used those words "to address all the brothers and sisters and offer them a form of life with the flavor of the Gospel ". The Encyclical aims to promote a universal aspiration toward fraternity and social friendship. In the background of the Encyclical is the Covid-19 pandemic which, Francis reveals, "unexpectedly erupted" as he "was writing this letter". But the global health emergency has helped demonstrate that "no one can face life in isolation" and that the time has truly come to "dream, then, as a single human family" in which we are "brothers and sisters all".</p><p><br></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>''With the encyclical <em>"Fratelli tutti", </em> Pope Francis presents a significant text that is highly topical in many issues of our day and comes at exactly the right time to help shape the debates. I am very grateful that the Pope has raised his voice so clearly to demand and bring in the contribution of the Church, indeed of all religions, to the solution of the current crises that are shaking our world. "-<strong> CARDINAL REINHARD MARX, Archbishop of Munich and Freising</strong></p><p>"As the title of the teaching letter -" <em>Fratelli tutti.</em> On fraternity and social friendship "- makes clear, Pope Francis is less concerned with a systemic or institutional analysis and solution of the many current crises. Pope Francis wants to shake us up once more and make it clear to us that each and every one of us is jointly responsible for the fate of humanity and the planet. We sit idly by those developments that amount to ignoring, devaluing, degrading and littering fellow human beings with ridicule and hatred, to exploit unrestrainedly. We are currently in the process of disposing of respect and esteem for one another or counteracting those who practice it. The dream of a fraternal world may seem naive to some, but the opposite - a world marked by populism, nationalism, racism, xenophobia, violence and exploitation - is a nightmare that is unfortunately increasingly becoming a reality. Let us be inspired by the Pope's dream! "- <strong>LEOPOLD WIMMER, The President of the Catholic Action Austria (KAÖ)</strong>.</p><p>"The message of my brother Pope Francis <em>'Fratelli tutti'</em> is an extension of the document on human fraternity . It reveals a global reality whose positions and decisions are unstable. It is the vulnerable and marginalized people who pay the price. With his letter about brotherhood and social friendship, Pope Francis expressly addresses all "people of good will and a living conscience . He is thus giving humanity back its conscience. --<strong>AL-AZHAR-IMAM AL-TAYYEB, Grand imam of Cairo's Al-Azhar University</strong></p><p>''The new papal teaching letter <em>"Fratelli tutti"</em> offers a "vision for the moral renewal of politics and economy - from the local to the global level". The Pope's invitation put forward in the document was "powerful and urgent". The Pope calls for building a common future that really serves the good of the human person . The encyclical makes an important contribution to the social doctrine of the Church and challenges us to overcome the individualism of our culture and to serve our neighbors in love by seeing Jesus Christ in everyone and a society of justice and mercy, of compassion and seek mutual interest .''-- <strong>ARCHBISHOP JOSE H. GOMEZ, Chairman of the American Bishops' Conference</strong></p><p>''With <em>Fratelli tutti</em> the Pope "put his fingers deep in the wounds of our society. He shows how a social, political and economic rethinking can succeed after the Covid crisis .''--<strong> MICHAEL LANDAU, President Caritas.</strong></p><p><br></p><br>
