Tridentine Catholicism: Archive

 

The Weeping Virgin of La Salette – who is so deeply expressive of Tridentine Catholicism …

The Devotion to the Sacred Heart can be considered as the pre-eminent Cult of the era of Tridentine Catholicism.

By this, we mean the era in which the Catholic Church can be most actively seen charting a different course from the trajectory of the Protestant and secular currents transforming the Western world. Tridentine Catholicism has often been derided as having a “siege mentality” against “progress”. Our view is different – this is a Church, which is most acutely aware of the danger of the world falling into ever greater materialistic decadence. In this Archive of Tridentine Catholicism we hope to present writings mainly from the past and out-of-copyright which can illumine this often mocked and misunderstood era. Here is an initial selection:

    Dear Roger,
    I am writing from Australia and recently purchased your book, “Cor Jesu Sacratissimum”. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and wanted to send you this message to compliment you. Hopefully this message reaches you ! The faith of the older Irish generation as explained in your book is a great example for us all. I have never been to Ireland, but sounds like you enjoy the rural area you have settled in which is great. Anyway, my best wishes to you and your wife, Kim. I pray that Our Lord repays you for your faith and perseverance. Hopefully if you are not too busy you could please send me a reply email so that I know my message has come through.

    Kind Regards,

    Danny

      Dear Danny,

      I am truly sorry that somehow this deeply encouraging letter from you was never seen nor published till now, let alone responded to. I have been negligent to the point of sin with this website, which has been failing/breaking in certain ways for years. I am finally in the middle of a massive revamp/relaunch which will solve the problems but in which comments will be closed, as I can no longer manage replies.

      But in the middle of the (enormous) revamp effort, I, at last, discovered your most kind mail. Thank you for your prayers and compliments and I do hope you get to Ireland someday. Though people despair of its secularising tragedy. I continue to find rural Ireland and the Irish like no other place and no other people I know on earth. I remain more moved than I can say.

      Again thank you so much and please forgive me. I will now e-mail you. God bless you!

  • The Gentle Traditionalist Returns!

    New Book from Angelico Press!

    "The Gentle Traditionalist returns with a vengeance in this stand-alone sequel ... this book skewers the modern malaise with the kind of sanity we have come to expect from this author” — CHARLES A. COULOMBE

    ”Buck’s latest foray is a grand success ... The story features the same singular combination of whimsy and surprise, keen social commentary, and deft argumentation as the first [book]. The Gentle Traditionalist Returns appeals to what is best and deepest in us, so that we will reengage with that which ultimately matters while there is yet time.” — PETER KWASNIEWSKI

    ”A brilliant diagnosis of the spiritual malaise of modern society, written with gentleness, generosity, humour, pathos ... and, above all else, love”— MAOLSHEACHLANN Ó CEALLAIGH

    The Gentle Traditionalist

     

    ”Roger Buck ... in the spirit of Chesterton and Belloc ... takes on everything—from the reforms of Vatican II to the New Age ... a wonderful book.”— MICHAEL MARTIN

    ”A tale of whimsical fantasy, melancholy realism, and supernatural joy ... Buck’s deftly-reasoned post-modern apologetic for full-blooded Catholicism—a Syllabus of Errors in narrative form, a rousing hymn to ‘meaning, grace, beauty, life’.” — PETER KWASNIEWSKI

    "As brilliant a guide for the perplexed as this age is capable of producing” — CHARLES A. COULOMBE

    Cor Jesu Sacratissimum

     

    cor-jesu-roger-buck

    ”Buck goes to the heart of the problem paralyzing our broken-hearted world ... moving beyond the spirit of the age to the Spirit who moves all ages.” — JOSEPH PEARCE

    ”In this elegant feast of a book, Roger Buck ... expertly skewers the modern world ... without a drop of malice in his compassionate soul ... to reveal the bright, shining love and truth at the center of the universe—symbolised by the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and incarnate in the Catholic Church.” — CHARLES A. COULOMBE

    ”A great service to the Church ... Buck shows that the New Age is an attempt, however flawed, to escape the materialism of modernity, and that it is Catholicism in its traditional forms that can best reveal the immense reality of the suffering and love for all mankind of Christ’s Sacred Heart.”— JOSEPH SHAW
