Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Many of those who ever came across the journal Caelum Et Terra during its too-brief years of publication, from the summer of 1991 to the winter of 1996, will never forget it. In a time of massive social decline, in the midst of which were delicate hopes of a Catholic "renaissance," it was a unique voice. The editors, originally Daniel Nichols and Maclin and Karen Horton, together with a small group of like-minded friends, strove to capture Catholicism's orthodoxy and diversity, her social consciousness, her critique of mass culture, her earth-centeredness, her vibrant traditionalism in one little volume, combined with wonderful illustrations of contemporary Catholic folk art. For many people, the reaction to the journal was suspicion: is this really Catholicism? To many, the editors sounded like "aging hippies," or "communists" or "Amish wanna-bes," to enumerate some of the reactions, printed and unprinted. But as the editors would say, there was really nothing unique in what they were trying to do. G.K. Chesterton, Eric Gill, Fr. Vincent McNabb, Dorothy Day, Peter Maurin, and many other known and unknown Catholics had felt the same call and spoken of the same ideas.
