Humani Generis Unitas (1938) - The Draft Encyclical of Pius XI on the Jewish Question and Anti-Semitism | Will Tucker

The Two Cities Podcast

Show Notes

Will Tucker and I discuss the 'lost' draft encyclical of Pius XI on the unity of the human race, the Jewish Question, anti-Semitism, and racism - Humani Generis Unitas.

The section on the Jewish Question and anti-Semitism can be found here: https://ccjr.us/dialogika-resources/primary-texts-from-the-history-of-the-relationship/hgu1938

Welcoming the clarity of the document, we examine the draft encyclical's explanation of the Church's teachings on: St Paul and fulfilment theology; the deicide charge; the enmity of the Synagogue towards the Church; the Church's condemnation of anti-Semitism and her answers to the Jewish question.
