Pius XII
(redirected from Eugenio Pacelli)

    Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.04 sec.

Pius XII (1876–1958)

Pope from 1939. He was conservative in doctrine and politics, and condemned modernism. In 1950 he proclaimed the dogma of the bodily assumption of the Virgin Mary, and in 1951 restated the doctrine (strongly criticized by many) that the life of an infant must not be sacrificed to save a mother in labour. He was criticized for failing to speak out against atrocities committed by the Germans during World War II and has been accused of collusion with the Nazis.
