The explicit and implicit use of the term «Europe» in this encyclical will be analysed as an example of papal documents in the 1920s and 1930s.

Therefore, a list of keywords that are used as main instrument in the text analysis of official papal documents is defined, beginning with Ubi Arcano Dei.
