Rerum Novarum

Encyclical of Pope Leo XIII on Capital and Labor

De: Pope Leo XIII

Narrado por: Bruno Belmar

Rerum Novarum, the opening words and the title of the Encyclical issued by Leo XIII, May 15, 1891, on the "Condition of Labor". Although the Encyclical follows the lines of the traditional teaching concerning the rights and duties of property and the relations of employed and employee, it applies the old doctrines specifically to modern conditions.

Although it is a bit out of sync with the times, it is a very good platform for consideration of advancing political thought.

Nothing in particular. This was a good reflection on wise governing. I need 15 words.

Remarkable

If you are searching the meaning of daily work, read it.
From grand scale of God's purpose and small details of working hour, holifay and wages, Pope Leo XIII provided insightful knowledge.

More relevant than ever

Now that Pope Leo XIV has taken his name, the greatest encyclical of Pope Leo XIII is more timely than ever.

A perfect book

A really outstanding price of material that documents the standard protocol for a Christian today. I highly recommend this book.

Got to of Pope Leo

I had to read this book to wash the taste of "The Just" out of my brain

Life, Liberty, Property, Needed Fortune, and P/H

A profoundly excellent read on the dignity of workers! Very reflective. I highly recommend this!

Great Biblical Explanation of Need for Labor

Although the title is only 90 minutes, it's packed with great reasoning as to where Biblical support for Labor and unions can originate in Christianity. Leo's arguments for the need for respect and dignity for laborers and how this complements class structures and Christian theology is well written and thought provoking. I bought this to gain a better understanding of the new Pope's thought processes regarding the role of humanity during times of technogical change and was not disappointed. Easily digestible despite being written 130 years ago. Only complaint is I wish the narrator read the Biblical citations when they were quoted instead of just assuming the reader knew where they came from.

Brilliant work

Pope Leo the XIII shows his understanding of the times and his true concern for all parties involved. Another sign that God knows us and wants what is best for us and that the Holy Spirit is active and working for our good.
