icelandic_iceskater Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 when I have the time, I'll read a lot of Kreeft. Chesterton's pretty sweet too. as far as fiction goes, I'm a fan of Imaculee Ilabagiza. buuuuut I haven't really read that much, so my range of authors to choose from is pretty narrow.

Sojourner Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 [quote name='Apotheoun' date='02 September 2009 - 12:02 AM' timestamp='1251864120' post='1959732'] I agree. Here is an interesting article she wrote: [url="http://www.orthodoxytoday.org/articles/AnscombeChastity.shtml"][u]Contraception and Chastity[/u][/url], by Elizabeth Anscombe [/quote] She's one of my favorites as well. The essay you link to is included as part of "Why Humanae Vitae Was Right," a collection of essays edited by Janet Smith. It was my introduction to Anscombe, and I've read quite a bit since then. One of my law profs was a big fan of hers, and assigned us [url="http://www.anthonyflood.com/anscombetrumansdegree.htm"]"Mr. Truman's Degree"[/url] as part of our international law readings. Thumbs up for Von Balthasar as well. I enjoy Hillaire Belloc and Christopher Dawson. Gerard Manley Hopkins is my favorite Catholic poet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
