Elastic pion-nucleus scattering is treated using a separation in Hilbert space via a projection-operator formalism. The basic assumption is that the elastic scattering and reactions due to the $\ensuremath{\pi}\ensuremath{-}N$ resonance proceed through doorway states consisting of a $\ensuremath{\Delta}(1236)$ resonance in the nucleus. Nonresonant scattering and absorption processes are included by background terms, which are approximately known. The formalism is applied to ${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{-}^{12}\mathrm{C}$ scattering.
