Description: From Pope Paul VI's onwards,theses speeches are full of that affection towards people which looks like what it is. Whether the theme is Christian unity, or anti-Semitism and racial discrimination, the religious freedom of the individual or the value of culture and technology, the brotherhood of clergy and laity or the concept of authority as service--all these speeches are filled with humanity and outspoken honesty. These speeches are the record of a dazzling renewal and the symbol of immeasurable hope; so dynamic, indeed, as to be perhaps disconcerting to those whose Catholicism is much involved with the comfort of familiar habit.
