An encyclical was originally a circular letter sent to all the churches of a particular area in the ancient Roman Church. At that time, the word could be used for a letter sent out by any bishop. The word comes from Late Latin encyclios (from Latin encyclius, a Latinization of Greek enkyklios meaning "circular", "in a circle", or "all-round", also part of the origin of the word encyclopedia). * The term has been used by Catholics, Anglicans and the Eastern Orthodox.* |
