Pope John Paul II was clearly one of the most influential persons
of the 20th Century. He affected the world of politics, religion,
and culture with a rhetorical zeal unmatched by few actors on the
international stage. From the downfall of communism in Eastern
Europe to his devotion to Mary to his championing of social justice
and orthodox theology, this book examines his several moments of
persuasive finesse as well as instances when his message could have
been crafted more effectively. The essays in this collection
examine his persuasive skills from several scholarly points of
view. The book also offers analyses of media portrayals of this
often-controversial figure. With contributions from some of the
world's leading communication scholars, clergy, and social
activists, this book is must reading for anyone interested in a
deeper understanding of religious communication in general and John
Paul II's rhetorical papacy in particular. Written by Catholics,
Protestants, Mormons, agnostics, and atheists, the chapters
approach the Pope with varying degrees of admiration, but always
with intellectual respect.
