The Catholic Church and Modern Sexual Knowledge, 1850-1950

More about the book

Exploring the complex history of the Catholic Church's views on body and sexuality, this book challenges the notion of a consistent opposition to birth control and abortion. It delves into the meanings of sexual purity, the Church's engagement with eugenics, and the Society of Jesus' interpretations of overpopulation. Additionally, it examines the motivations behind Pius XI's issuance of a significant encyclical, revealing a nuanced and evolving perspective on modern sexuality within Catholicism.
