Who Was Leo XIII, The Pope Whose Name The New Pontiff Chose
Who would have bet that a cardinal widely seen as a placeholder, elected Pope back in 1878, with people whispering he wouldn’t last long, would end up inspiring the newly-elected Pope Leo XIV? Yet, here we are, watching the first American Pope in history step out and deliberately refer back to this very man, Pope Leo XIII, by choosing his name. As with every papal name, it is far from a random choice; it is a signal, a nod to a papacy that wrestled with its own seismic changes and laid down markers that still guide the Catholic Church today. The newly-elected Pope Leo XIV has probably been paying attention and seen something vital in Leo XIII’s papacy that he wants to carry forward in the 21st century. Pope Leo XIII, the ‘Transitional’ Pope who stayed Italian cardinal Gioacchino Pecci got the nod at nearly 68, after Pope Pius IX’s incredibly long papacy at the end of the 19th century, a crucial historical period for the entire world. Pope Leo XIII was supposed to be a gentle interim figure, someone to see the Church through a tricky time after losing most of its influence and power in Italy.
