In this second encyclical, the Holy Father deals with the incompatibility between Christian hope and the individualism found within society. “Flowing into this self-critique of the modern age there also has to be a self-critique of modern Christianity…” he writes. This results in beautiful and profound meditations on Christian concepts of faith, eternal life, life as a relationship, individualism, being (for others), and hope and the modern age. The letter concludes with three prescriptive “Settings” for learning and practicing hope, and a final meditation on Mary, our “Star of Hope” on the human journey.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUsing examples drawn from historical contexts to root each concept firmly in the present day, Benedict XVI moves easily from complex ideas drawn from the likes of Kantian philosophy to simpler, practical \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“Settings” for Learning and Practicing Hope\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e toward the end of the work.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eINDEX\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFaith is Hope\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe concept of faith-based hope in the New Testament and the early Church\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEternal life – what is it?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIs Christian hope individualistic?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe transformation of Christian faith-hope in the modern age\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe true shape of Christian hope\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e“Settings” for learning and practising hope\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eI.
