Poch as a well-established and regarded poet, turns his eye to contemporary poetry and vindicates its function in a "created and creative...

Mascall offers a sobering rejoinder to this immanent f...

"This book almost didn't exist. I was about to write a serious, heavy book entitled How To Save Western Civilization, as a sequel to my book How To Destroy Western Civilization and Other Ideas from the Cultural Abyss. But writing it was not making me happy, and reading it was not going to make anybody else happy either. And then I stopped just long enough for my guardian angel to squeeze through that tiny window of opportunity that I had opened up by my silence and to whisper this commonsense...

"These pages do not pretend to furnish theologians and doctors with a new Mariology.
