Alfred Delp

Prison Meditations of Father Alfred Delp

An Instant New York Times Bestseller"Truly a Mere Christianity for the 21st century"--World magazineFrom the host of the Interesting Times podcastDo you ever wish you had more faith? Here is a blueprint for thinking your way from doubt to belief.As a columnist for the New York Times who writes often about spiritual topics for a skeptical audience, Ross Douthat understands that many of us want to have more faith than we do. Douthat argues that in light of what we know today it should be harder to not have faith than to have it.With empathy, clarity, and rigor, Douthat explores: <ul><li>Why nonbelief requires ignoring what our reasoning faculties tell us about the world</li><li>How modern scientific developments make a religious worldview more credible, not less</li><li>Why it's entirely reasonable to believe in mystical and supernatural realities</li><li>How an open-minded religious quest should proceed amid the diversity of religious faiths</li><li>How Douthat's own Christianity is informed by his blueprint for belief</li></ul> With clear and straightforward arguments, Believe shows how religious belief makes sense of the order of the cosmos and our place within it, illuminates the mystery of consciousness, and explains the persistent reality of encounters with the supernatural. Highly relevant for our current moment, Believe offers a pathway for thinking your way from doubt into belief, from uncertainty about our place in the universe into a confidence that we are here for a reason.

In this book, Jean-Paul Coujou explores the historical evolution of international law from antiquity through modernity. He traces the development of the law of nations (ius gentium), beginning with Greek and Roman contributions, and examines its synthesis with natural law in Christian and Scholastic traditions. Coujou highlights the role of thinkers like Francisco de Vitoria, who transitioned the concept from individual relationships to the framework of international relations among states.This work underscores the historical necessity of reconciling natural law's universality with the practicalities of positive law, shaped by human consent and custom. The narrative also incorporates the emergence of foundational principles such as human rights, justice, and mutual assistance among nations, demonstrating how international law has been influenced by theological, legal, and philosophical ideas, particularly during the Second Scholastic period, with contributions from figures like Suárez and Aquinas.In this manner, Coujou provides a broader understanding of humanity as a universal community governed by shared legal and moral principles. He ultimately argues that international law serves as a mechanism for civilization, fostering unity, justice, and the moral improvement of humanity through cooperative legal development.

*Shortlisted for the 2026 Cundill History Prize* *Shortlisted for the 2026 An Post Irish Book Awards, Hodges Figgis History Book of the Year*When the gates of the last Magdalene Laundry closed in 1996, Ireland moved on. Or so it seemed. 'Enraging ... superb' JOHN BANVILLE, Guardian 'Remarkable' Sunday Times 'Groundbreaking' MICK CLIFFORD, Irish Examiner 'An extraordinary gift ... both an education and a page-turner' DOIREANN NÍ GHRÍOFA 'Powerful ... authoritative, passionate' Mail on SundayFollowing independence in 1922, Ireland began to chase a dream: to become the perfect Catholic nation. But purity had a price. Throughout the twentieth century, thousands of women and girls who did not conform - the wayward, the poor, the disabled, the abused - were sent to the Magdalene Laundries. Each was perceived to have fallen in some way. Once locked inside, their hair was shorn off, their names were erased - and then they were put to work. They washed, they scrubbed and they prayed, labouring in an attempt to salvage their souls.Published to coincide with the thirtieth anniversary of the last Laundry's closure, The Fallen is the forgotten story of the Magdalene Laundries, told through the voices of the women who endured them, the nuns who presided over them and the communities that lived alongside them.Unflinching and compassionate, Louise Brangan draws on archives and survivors' testimonies to dismantle long-held myths about what the Laundries were, who was sent to these places of violence and secrecy, and why. As we move from the past into the present, Brangan compels us not only to confront this shameful history, but to ask a deeper question: what do we choose to remember?'Highly readable and intelligently engaging' FINTAN O'TOOLE, TLS 'Indispensable' ANNE ENRIGHT 'A terrific unearthing of Ireland's shadowland. A landmark book' RORY CARROLL 'Vivid, fluent and deeply compassionate' Irish Times*Winner of the 2024 Royal Society of Literature Giles St Aubyn Award*

The Magdalene Laundries and Ireland’s Legacy of Silence

The Fallen

Why did Catholicism attract so many unlikely converts in Britain during the twentieth century? &nbsp; The twentieth century is understood as an era of growing, inexorable secularism, yet in Britain between the 1890s and the 1960s there was a marked turn to Rome. In the first half of the century, Catholicism became an intellectual and spiritual fashion attracting more than half a million converts, including fascinating artists, writers, and thinkers. What drew these men and women to join the church, and what difference did conversion make to them? &nbsp; Melanie McDonagh examines the lives of these notable converts from the perspective of their faith. For the Decadent circle of Aubrey Beardsley and Oscar Wilde—who converted on his deathbed—artists such as Gwen John and David Jones, the philosopher Elizabeth Anscombe, and novelists including G. K. Chesterton, Graham Greene, Evelyn Waugh, and Muriel Spark, Catholicism offered stability in increasingly febrile times. McDonagh explores their lives and influences, the reaction to their conversions, and the priests who initiated them into their faith.

Contemporary Catholic environmentalism is at a crossroads, both theologically and politically. While the first half of the 20th century saw only fleeting references to environmental concerns in papal encyclicals, Pope John Paul II's 1990 New Year's Day address, later titled The Ecological Crisis, marked a pivotal shift. His stark warnings about the planet's mounting ecological challenges galvanized the Catholic theological community, prompting numerous regional bishops' statements that highlighted pressing local environmental issues. By the mid-1990s, Catholic environmentalism had evolved into a distinct theological discourse and a burgeoning political movement, attracting support from both church hierarchy and lay Catholics worldwide.


Despite Pope John Paul II's efforts to root Catholic environmental thought in the stewardship paradigm, his success in securing theological consensus was limited. While Pope Benedict XVI endorsed this model, many Catholic theologians and scholars voiced significant reservations. Some critiqued its vague theological underpinnings, others lamented its inherent anthropocentrism, and still others sought a broader scriptural foundation for environmental ethics. These critiques signaled a growing desire for an alternative framework.


With the publication of Laudato Si in 2015, Pope Francis ushered in a new era of Catholic environmentalism. His encyclical reaffirmed the theological and moral urgency of ecological issues while challenging humanity's unchecked technological optimism and deep-seated anthropocentrism. At the heart of his vision is the idea that all creation manifests divine love, calling Catholics to embrace a theocentric environmental ethic. This book builds upon Laudato Si, offering a fresh theological framework that moves beyond stewardship toward a more expansive, love-centered approach to creation care.

The Aramaic Jesus Book of Days

When Robert Francis Prevost OSA appeared on the loggia of St. Peter's on 8th May 2025, he surprised the world. The first North American pope is a quiet man few had heard of, following the legacy of one the most media savvy pontiffs in history. Yet with subtle gestures, Pope Leo has shown that he is a bridge-builder, a man willing to unite the factions in a deeply divided Church.In this comprehensive book which joins biography with critical examination of the state of the Church, veteran journalist Christopher R. Altieri explores Prevost's life and work, from his early years in Chicago to his ministry in Peru, and how he came to be chosen as leader of the world's 1.4 billion Catholics.Altieri provides insight into the politics of the 2025 conclave, alongside Pope Leo's choice of papal name, and the major challenges and deep-rooted problems of the Church that he now must run - and all at a time when the world is asking big questions about what it means to be human in a complex ethical world of AI and global conflict. Through this Pope Leo emerges as a quiet man of true humility, with a track record as an efficient administrator and conciliatory figure, whose background in Canon Law might just offer him the skills needed to govern and reshape the modern Church.

'Immensely readable ... Lamb's assessment is cool and considered: a thoughtful overview of the conclave's fruit in Leo's first year, and the challenges he faces. The author's gifts for rendering complexity digestible are on full display: American Hope is the most thorough and insightful overview out there of the Church at the start of the Leonine era' - Austen Ivereigh, The Tablet 'Incisive ... American Hope combines background with predictions, lacing both together with a strong narrative and mastery of Vatican politics as well as theology ... The influence of Lamb's day job, as CNN's Vatican correspondent, can be seen here in the ease with which he places the Pope in a global context, not least in comparing him with US president Donald Trump and his VP, Catholic convert JD Vance' - Catherine Pepinster, Telegraph As white smoke signaled a new pope had been chosen on the evening of May 8, 2025, Robert Prevost went from being a relatively unknown cardinal to one of the most famous people on earth, the leader of the world's 1.4 billion Catholics. In electing Leo XIV, the College of Cardinals broke with conventional wisdom that there would never be an American pope. Is it a coincidence that he was chosen at a time of unprecedented political turbulence in the United States? Had the cardinals seen in him someone who would act as a spiritual counterweight to President Donald Trump?In American Hope CNN's Vatican correspondent Christopher Lamb explores what the election of Pope Leo means not just for the Catholic Church, but for the world. Drawing on his deep understanding of the Vatican and high-level access to cardinals and senior figures, Lamb paints a portrait of Leo as someone who combines an ability to unify with a steely determination to reform. He provides insights into the themes that will dominate Leo's papacy as the new pope steers a path between traditionalists and reformers.Leo is set to make a profound impact on the Church at a transformative moment in its history. In the era of "America First", the story of Leo's life and ministry asks what it truly means to be an American. In a world of conflict, he stands for peace. In a time of uncertainty, he offers a sense of hope.
