The Catholic "thing" - the concrete historical reality of
Catholicism as a presence in human history - is the richest
cultural tradition in the world. It values both faith and reason,
and therefore has a great deal to say about politics and economics,
war and peace, manners and morals, children and families, careers
and vocations, and many other perennial and contemporary questions.
In addition, it has inspired some of the greatest art, music, and
architecture, while offering unparalleled human solidarity to tens
of millions through hospitals, soup kitchens, schools,
universities, and relief services.
This volume brings together some of the very best commentary on a
wide range of recent events and controversies by some of the very
best Catholic writers in the English language: Ralph McInerny,
Michael Novak, Fr. James V. Schall, Hadley Arkes, Robert Royal,
Anthony Esolen, Brad Miner, George Marlin, David Warren, Austin
Ruse, Francis Beckwith, and many others.
Their contributions cover large Catholic subjects such as
philosophy and theology, liturgy and Church dogma, postmodern
culture, the Church and modern politics, literature, and music. But
they also look into specific contemporary problems such as
religious liberty, the role of Catholic officials in public life,
growing moral hazards in bio-medical advances, and such like.
"The Catholic Thing" is a virtual encyclopedia of Catholic thought
about modern life.
