CV NEWS FEED // The Veritas Amoris Project has just published a never-before-seen text of Pope Benedict XVI addressing some of the fundamental crises of our day.

The newly published text, titled “The Christian Image of Man,” is the final part of a handwritten work that Pope Benedict asked to have published only after his death. The retired pontiff wrote it between Christmas and Epiphany 2019-2020, entrusting it to Fr. Livio Melina, former head of the Pontifical John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and Family. Fr. Melina and Fr. José Granados co-edited the third volume of the Italian journal for the Veritas Amoris Project, “La verità dell’amore, Tracce per un cammino.”

The Veritas Amoris Project was founded in 2019 by Frs. Melina and Granados, who were both professors of dogmatic and moral theology at the John Paul II Institute for Marriage and Family. The Institute was gutted in 2019, and scholars and theologians faithful to the vision of John Paul II on marriage, family, and the moral life were expelled.
