Romano Guardini (1885-1968) was one of the most important Catholic figures of the 20th century. An ordained priest, author, and professor at the University of Berlin until he was expelled for criticizing the Nazis, he taught the future Pope Benedict XVI. After the war, he continued teaching at the University of Tubingen and the University of Munich, co-founding the Catholic Academy in Bavaria during his tenure at the latter. His many works include The Lord, The World and the Person, The Spirit of the Liturgy, and The End of the Modern World. Guardini was the recipient of the German publishing industry's Peace Prize in 1952 and the Erasmus Prize in 1962. The Archdiocese of Munich and Freising opened the Cause for Canonization for Guardini in 2017.
