Pope Benedict XVI dies | Latest news, reaction and live updates appeared on en.as.com by Oliver Povey.
What happens when Pope Emeritus dies?
The anticipated death of Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI raises some significant ceremonial questions that cannot be currently answered.
The end of a reigning pope’s life is observed by a series of very timely and apprehended rituals: from the certification of the pope’s death to the public display of the pope’s body and the funeral celebration itself.
But what are the protocols when a pope emeritus dies?
Due to the unprecedented nature of Benedict’s retirement, there is no clear answer to this question.
Benedict was the first pope to renounce the papacy in almost 600 years, has lived longer in retirement than any pope in history, and is the first to take the title Pope Emeritus.
According to the monsignor Monsignor Stefano Sanchirico, an official of the Vatican Apostolic Archive and expert in pontifical ceremonial, “it is clear that Pope Francis will make the final decision.” He added, however, that based on “the tradition of the Roman ceremonial and considering some analogy with similar offices, we can make an educated guess of how things will be handled.”
