Perhaps the most important single event in the last 500 years of Catholicism is the Second Vatican Council, which simultaneously sought ressourcement–returning to the core of the tradition, in order to revivify it–and aggiornamento–bringing the tradition up to date, in order to meet the needs of the present. This course focuses on the history of the Council and its most defining theological texts.
