About this book

Una biografía reveladora del Papa argentino. Tras su fallecimiento, esta obra se convierte en un testimonio invaluable de la vida y legado de un Papa que transformó la Iglesia y dejó una huella imborrable en la historia. El día 13 del mes 3 de 2013 fue el día de Francisco. Una fecha que marcó un hito en la historia de la Iglesia católica. Por primera vez, un jesuita. Por primera vez, un latinoamericano. Por primera vez, en casi seiscientos años, la elección de un Papa tras la renuncia de otro, en medio de un tiempo desconcertante para el Vaticano, asediado por la divulgación de informes secretos y de investigaciones internas. Mariano de Vedia, editor y columnista de larga trayectoria en el diario La Nación, periodista experto en temas de Iglesia, que conoció la historia del Sumo Pontífice como pocos, explica con rigor y lucidez en esta biografía, la primera de Jorge Mario Bergoglio, todo lo que hay que saber sobre el Papa. Su infancia en el barrio de Flores. La simpatía por el peronismo y sus lecturas de izquierda. La pasión por San Lorenzo de Almagro. La enfermedad pulmonar que lo empujó a una fe más profunda, la forma en que recibió el llamado de Dios y la mujer que, por un tiempo, no lo dejó rezar. Un encuentro con el escritor Jorge Luis Borges. La experiencia como líder de los jesuitas en la Argentina y su desempeño en los años ominosos de la dictadura militar. Cuenta, además, cómo fue el día en que lo dieron por muerto. Por qué se fue instalando como un candidato de peso en el Vaticano. La relación traumática que mantuvo con los presidentes Néstor y Cristina Kirchner. El trabajo de los religiosos en las villas miserias y los combates contra la trata de personas, el trabajo esclavo y el narcotráfico. Sus referentes. El complejo entramado político que derivó en su elección como jefe de los católicos en el mundo y las ideas renovadoras que intentó poner en marcha en la casa matriz de la Iglesia. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A revealing biography of the Argentine Pope. After his passing, this work becomes an invaluable testimony to the life and legacy of a Pope who transformed the Church and left an indelible mark on history. On March 13, 2013, the day of Francis marked a milestone in the history of the Catholic Church. For the first time, a Jesuit. For the first time, a Latin American. For the first time in nearly six hundred years, the election of a Pope following the resignation of another, amidst a perplexing time for the Vatican, besieged by the disclosure of secret reports and internal investigations. Mariano de Vedia, a seasoned editor and columnist at La Nación, an expert journalist on Church matters who knew the story of the Supreme Pontiff like few others, explains with rigor and clarity in this biography--the first of Jorge Mario Bergoglio--everything there is to know about the Pope. His childhood in the Flores neighborhood. His sympathy for Peronism and his leftist readings. His passion for San Lorenzo de Almagro. The lung disease that led him to a deeper faith, the way he received "God's call," and the woman who, for a time, kept him from praying. A meeting with writer Jorge Luis Borges. His experience as leader of the Jesuits in Argentina and his role during the ominous years of the military dictatorship. It also recounts the day he was declared dead. Why he gradually emerged as a strong candidate in the Vatican. The traumatic relationship he had with Presidents Néstor and Cristina Kirchner. The work of religious figures in the slums and the battles against human trafficking, slave labor, and drug trafficking. His influences. The complex political framework that led to his election as leader of Catholics worldwide and the innovative ideas he sought to implement in the Church's headquarters.
