Personhood Bibliography

In response to Rob's question about a bibliography for personhood, with a focus on Catholic Legal Theory, I believe the following texts would need to be on the list: the works of de Vitoria and Suarez (they are conveniently situated in the Oxford Classics of International Law edited by James Scott Brown); Bartolome de Las Casas's In Defense of the Indians; Dred Scot v. Sanford, particularly the dissents; John XXIII's Pacem In Terris, especially N. 9; John Paul II's Evangelium Vitae; and Psalm 139, verses 13-16. The Pontifical Academy for Life also has some important texts available online at the Vatican website: www.vatican.va . My list is incomplete, but these texts would help the investigator plot a course of research interested in CLT.  RJA sj
