«Questo immane suicidio dell’umanità». Giovanni Battista Montini e la prima Guerra Mondiale
(Servicio de Publicaciones de la Universidad de Navarra, 2014) Repossi, C. (Cesare)
Although the young Giovanni Battista Montini was not called up, he experienced the First World War through frequent correspondence with many of his friends who were in the army, and above all, with his brother Lodovico. This was an important time for him, when his priestly vocation matured and he entered the Seminary. In his letters he also explains his spiritual attitude to the War, ideas that he was later to draw on as Archbishop of Milan and Pope Paul VI: the need to seek, in the evil which devastates humankind, the possibility of good and the workings of Providence.
