Abstract

A variety of hermeneutical approaches to the apostolic exhortation Amoris Laetitia (2016) are reviewed, emphasizing its innovation within the continuity of reflection on marriage and family within the Tradition. A new "anthropological-sacramental" ecclesial paradigm is glimpsed, which allows the flourishing of the personalist perspective that emerged from the Second Vatican Council.
