ON-LINE TEXTS

EWTN Mother Angelica's Eternal Word Television Network come to the internet; an Adoremus site with a huge and useful on-line library, recent news releases, and other things. Perhaps become a principal on-line resource for Catholics 'surfing the net'.

 
 

CCEL Patristics Patristics (writings of the Church fathers) page in the more general Christian Classics Ethereal Library site (which site contains various writings from certain doctors and saints among the pagan, and Protestant, and what have you). I believe the footnotes are missing from various of the Patristic writings, and that individual and more complete documents might be found elsewhere, at EWTN's library, and so on (but maybe it's not the case with the footnotes, either - don't know).

 
 

Bible Unbound Biola Univ. .zip files of complete Bibles, assorted Protestant versions to be sure, but also the Douay-Rheims, the Vulgate, the Septuagint (in a couple of varieties), and more.

 
 

Catholic Encyclopedia The New Advent on-line Catholic Encyclopedia, from the 1913 edition. Article after article after . . . lots of stuff. Also extensive on-line documents from the Church Fathers. [note: appears to be extraneous material from other sources, such as an extensive entry under, Ecumenism. Might be best to compare any edited article here with the source text, say from a library loan.]

 
 

My Links A few links to CCEL etexts and others, for specific Church Fathers and selected books.

 
 

The Ecole Initiative Various on-line texts, not all even Catholic, but includes some useful documents from Athanasius, Ambrose, Cyprian, &c, and so on.

 
 

2000 Years of Catholic Writings Basically just links to specific works from the various sites mentioned above; but here and there is an odd text or two from some other site or server.

 
 

NEWS

Catholic World News Catholic World News, with archive search back to early 1996. "CWN's most visible service is the Daily News Briefs, but our services also include full global news coverage, including feature stories, Vatican updates, interviews, news analysis, and opinion columns."

 
 

The Remnant News From Michael Matt's newspaper, The Remnant, a number of interesting articles, as they continue to rebuild the site after Stephen Hand/TCR (after an apparent about face on traditionalism) apparently stopped hosting their site.

 
 

ZENIT From their site: "ZENIT is an International News Agency based in Rome. Our mission is to provide objective and professional coverage of events, documents and issues emanating from or concerning the Catholic Church for a worldwide audience, especially the media."

 
 

The Vatican Finally, the Vatican's web site is on-line. It had really been nothing but a press release page for the longest time.

 
 

L'osservatore Romano The Vatican newspaper, showing only a few articles from the current issue; back issues, going back to the last century, are apparently available but controlled via e-mail (?).

 
 

NEWSLETTERS

CATALYST Catholic League's newsletter; back issues on-line. Apologetics, news, and more.

 
 

DOMUS Domus/IHS/Una Voce, with a couple of newsletters from Domus on their struggle to get a Latin Mass in Monterey, CA; links from IHS (warning: lots of graphics), a criticism of 'Common Ground', and misc.

 
 

Una Voce Rochester A few newsletters and articles on-line, from Una Voce - issues 18-26, and 28.

 
 

The Roman Rite Fr. Mole's traditionalist newsletter, on-line starting from issue #1. From last paragraph, last issue: "Postmortem of postconciliar church: The progressive press, no longer euphoric about the success of the liturgical reform, has begun the postmortem of the postconciliar church."

 
 

Latin Mass News From deepest, darkest Rancho Cucamonga, assorted articles on the various sorts of things found in the Controversies section, here - the 'novus ordo' consecration formula, people priesthood, why doesn't JP II do something? and so forth.

 
 

View from the Pew Conservative on-line newsletter from San Jose, CA. Interesting take on local happenings.

 
 

Adoremus Bulletin Anti-liberal articles by the like of the Helen Hitchcock, Fr. Fessio of Ignatius Press, and other Adoremus folk. 'Conservative' consternation at the changes in the name of Vatican II, but yet a firm defense of all council documents, pretty much as doctrinal, and particularly of the Novus Ordo; or any 'novus ordo', perhaps. See the FAQ.

 
 

Crusader Magazine Very conservative magazine, requires subscription but does at least provide cover story for each issue on-line; e.g. that on persecution in the Sudan.

 
 

MAGAZINES

The Latin Mass Influential quarterly magazine, describing the latest goings on in the struggle between traditionalists and the rear guard of reform, as it were, along with various articles on all sorts of related topics, from some of the best writers around. Also, of late, they have incorported a separate but related magazine, Sursum Corda (here's a few old on-line articles), as a special section in the middle of The Latin Mass magazine, making the two for one even more worth the subscription. As of late 2002, only 15 selected articles from the magazine are actually on-line.

 
 

New Oxford Review Conservative Catholic, with emphasis on pro-life articles, but also the problems with feminism, the 'spirit of Vatican II', ecumenism, other 'social issues', and more. A selection of back issue articles are on-line.

The Fatima Crusader Sixty back issues of the often inspirational, and also often controversial, Fatima Crusader of Fr. Nick Gruner. Everything from quoting chapters of Saintly writings, to updates on his crusade and roadblocks thrown his way, to McAlvaney Defense updates, and more.

 
 

Human Life Review Most respected prolife journal, very timely essays from some of the most gifted writers around. Selected articles from current issue, on-line, along with a relatively few in the past issue archives.

The Neumann Press Right from their site: "The Neumann Press started as a family business in 1981, and has established itself as one of the few publishers producing orthodox Catholic books. . . . specializes in reprinting out-of-print books . . . also offers a wide variety of sound Homeschooling Books and classics from other publishers."

 
 

Ignatius Press Sort of the official publishing arm of, Adoremus. A few questionable books. Many very orthodox. Noted for reprinting various works of G. K. Chesterton, and particularly volume after volume of his very clever and profound columns for The Illustrated News just after the turn of the 20th century (highly recommended reading).

 
 

Sophia Institute Publisher of various reprints, particularly some key works of Dietrich von Hildebrand, some Francis de Sales not found at TAN, and various others, too. Why call it Sophia?

My List of Books List of books that I don't actually sell myself, but that I do recommend (a few out of print, but libraries might have them - and even lend them to you (not guaranteed)).

 
 

Missals Fair number of places, now, to get the old Latin Missals. Mass booklets from Coalition Ecclesia Dei, with prayers for before Mass in front, and many for afterward (incl. those of Pope Leo) in back, along with Gregorian chant notation for the main sung prayers of Mass, prayers for Benediction of The Blessed Sacrament, and more. the Fr. Juergens New Marian Daily Missal, mostly English/Latin throughout the 1945 Lasance Missal, English/Latin throughout (the gold edging on the pages tends to flake off too easily - hopefully they'll get it fixed one day) the 1952 St. Andrews Missal, preferred by many, with the typ. Andrews Missal brief biographies for the Saints of the day try the Used Catholic Books (St. Stephen's) list and there's usually a bunch of 1950s and earlier missals listed for sale on ebay
