Description
Summary:In Chile, Alberto Hurtado is known as an extraordinary man because of his love for the poorest. This article emphasizes how the Chilean saint was a typically Jesuit intellectual, a fairly unknown aspect of his personality. Hurtado related pietas and eruditio in view of the social change that the Church wanted to promote throughout the 20th century. The poor person, in whom Hurtado found Christ, was the impoverished victim of a structurally unjust society. His holiness consisted in having attended to his redemption with charity, but also as one of the principal intellectuals of Chilean Social Catholicism.
