Marianela era una muchachita huérfana, que vivía en las minas de un lugar llamado Socartes. Estaba debilucha y fea. Se había acostumbrado al rechazo de todos; incluso creía que “no servía para nada”, hasta que se convirtió en el lazarillo de un gallardo joven llamado Pablo, quien le hizo saber que su bondad y ternura la convertían en una persona hermosa.

Since its U.S. debut a quarter-century ago, this brilliant text has set a new standard for historical scholarship of Latin America. It is also an outstanding political economy, a social and cultural narrative of the highest quality, and perhaps the finest description of primitive capital accumulation since Marx.

During his last recorded Good Friday address in 1979, Archbishop Sheen spoke of having given ...

In his latest book, Dr. Peter Kwasniewski argues that ever since the new liturgical books following the Second Vatican Council came into force, Roman Catholic faithful have suffered the effects of a hasty and far-reaching reform permeated with nominalism, voluntarism, Protestantism, rationalism, antiquarianism, hyperpapalism, and other modern errors. Man is not master over divine liturgy, Dr. Kwasniewski emphasizes; rather, all of us are called to be stewards of the sacred, from the lowest-ranking layman to the pope himself.
