Description

A long-time friend and student of the late Pope John Paul II, Stanislaw Grygiel in Discovering the Human Person: In Conversation with John Paul II, reflects on the pope’s life and thought, giving new insight into his character and his vision of beauty as the path that leads us to God.

More than simply biographical information about John Paul II — who was Bishop Karol Wojtyla before he became pope — or a dry academic analysis of his teaching, Discovering the Human Person derives from Grygiel’s extensive firsthand interaction with Wojtyla. Grygiel reflects on the importance of communion as the ground of John Paul II’s life, particularly in response to the communist environment that surrounded him in Poland. He also addresses the pope’s call for a new evangelization, his understanding of marriage and family, and the relationship of those to a genuine, healthy understanding of nation and state.
