«Deus caritas est» (God is love) is the first encyclical of Benedict XVI, published by Editorial San Pablo in paperback (96 pages, in Spanish).
The encyclical reflects on Christian love: the word «love» has become trivialised and the Pope wants to restore its meaning from faith. God has drawn close to the human being, created to love, and this love manifests itself as self-giving and service to one's neighbour. The text is addressed to bishops, priests, deacons, consecrated persons and lay faithful.
Published on 24 January 2006, it belongs to the Encíclicas-documentos collection of Editorial San Pablo. The edition includes a presentation letter from the Pope to readers.
For Catholic faithful, spirituality readers and those approaching the magisterium of Benedict XVI.
Pope Benedict XVI was head of the Catholic Church and sovereign of Vatican City from 2005 until his resignation in 2013. Following his resignation, he chose to be known as "pope emeritus", a title he held until his death on 31 December 2022.
