Library : Candor Lucis Aeternae (Splendor of Light Eternal)

Description On March 25, 2021, Pope Francis released an Apostolic Letter entitled Candor lucis aeternae marking the 700th anniversary of the death of the great Italian poet, Dante Alighieri, and highlights the relevance, timelessness and depth of faith in Dante’s masterpiece: The Divine Comedy.
