Abstract: | This program is about Pope John XXIII and his role in the Catholic Church. Angelo Giuseppe Roncalli was elected Pope on 28 October 1958 at age 76 after 11 ballots. His selection was unexpected, and Roncalli himself had come to Rome with a return train ticket to Venice. He was the first pope to take the pontifical name of "John" upon election in more than 500 years, and his choice settled the complicated question of official numbering attached to this papal name due to the antipope of this name. Pope John XXIII surprised those who expected him to be a caretaker pope by calling the historic Second Vatican Council (1962–65), the first session opening on 11 October 1962. |
Description: | A series of programs whereby Rev. Dr Joe Borg and Prof Joe Pirotta talk about events in the Cathlic Church and outside the Catholic Church that left an impact on history. |
