Details

Pius XII, born Eugenio Maria Giuseppe Giovanni Pacelli (Rome, March 2, 1876 - Castel Gandolfo, October 9, 1958), was an Italian pope from 1939 until his death. At the beginning of his pontificate, World War II broke out, in the last years of which the danger of the Cold War threatened. Theologically important was his solemn definition of the dogma of Assumption of Mary with soul and body in 1950.
