Additional information
by Austin Flannery (Editor)
As Pope Francis leads the worldwide church wholly within and from the teachings of the Council (1962-65), there is a great need in college classrooms and parish faith formation groups--as well as for individuals--to again have access to these documents in contemporary English.
This volume contains the sixteen official documents--constitutions, decrees, and declarations--of the Second Vatican Council in the most popular and widely used inclusive-language edition translated by Irish Dominican Austin Flannery (+2008). This edition is also presented with a larger, more readable font than previous editions. Table of Contents:- Dogmatic Constitution on the Church, Lumen Gentium
- Dogmatic Constitution on Divine Revelation, Dei Verbum
- Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy, Sacrosanctum Concilum
- Pastoral Constitution on the Church in the Modern World, Gaudium et Spes
- Decree on the Pastoral Office of Bishops in the Church, Christus Dominus
- Decree on the Ministry and Life of Priests, Presbyterorum Ordinis
- Decree on the Training of Priests, Optatam Totius
- Decree on the Up-to-Date Renewal of Religious Life, Perfectae Caritatis
- Decree on the Apostolate of Lay People, Apostolicam Actuositatem
- Decree on the Church's Missionary Activity, Ad Gentes Divinitus
- Decree on Ecumenism, Unitatis Redintegratio

- Decree on the Mass Media, Inter Mirifica

Each of these sixteen documents is also available as separate eBooks (PDF, ePub, and Mobi) priced at $2.99 each.
