This book provides a theological account of the internet from a
Catholic perspective. It engages digital culture by providing a
context for media and mediation within the Catholic tradition,
specifically focusing on the ecclesiology and sacramentality of the
church. Katherine G. Schmidt argues that the Catholic imagination
is inherently consonant with the idea of the "virtual," understood
as the creative space between presence and absence, bringing the
fields of media studies, internet studies, sociology, history, and
theology together in order to give a theological account of the
social realities of American Catholicism in light of digital
culture. Overall, Schmidt argues that the social possibilities of
the internet afford the church great opportunity for building a
social context that allows the living out of Eucharistic logic
learned in properly liturgical moments.
