| book description |

Le deuxieme concile du Vatican (1961-1965) fut l'un des evenements religieux les plus importants du vingtieme siecle. Au Canada, il coincida avec une periode de changements culturels et societaux sans precedent, entrainant chez les eveques catholiques canadiens un reexamen de la place et de la mission de l'Eglise dans le monde. Pendant quatre ans, les eveques catholiques canadiens se reunirent avec leurs collegues de partout dans le monde pour reflechir aux questions urgentes qui se posaient a l'Eglise et en debattre. Ce livre bilingue etudie l'interpretation et la reception de Vatican II au Canada, analysant diverses questions, dont le role des medias, les reactions des autres chretiens, les contributions des participants canadiens, l'impact du Concile sur la pratique religieuse et sa contribution a la progression du dialogue interreligieux. The Second Vatican Council (1961-1965) was one of the most significant religious events of the twentieth-century. In Canada, it was part of a moment of unprecedented cultural and societal change, causing Canadian Catholics to reexamine the church's place and mission in the world. For four years, Canadian Catholic bishops met with their peers from around the globe to reflect on and debate the pressing issues facing the church. This bilingual volume explores the interpretation and reception of Vatican II in Canada, looking at many issues including the role of the media, the reactions of other Christians, the contributions of Canadian participants, the council's impact on religious practice and its contribution to the growth of inter-religious dialogue.
