A proposito di questo titolo
 In this thought-provoking discussion, I delve into the troubling influence of the modern Capitalist Press, exploring its role in distorting public opinion and empowering the unscrupulous. I also highlight the potential for change through the rise of small, independent media outlets and their increasing impact on the information landscape. (Introduction by Hilaire Belloc)

    Discourse on the Method of Rightly Conducting One’s Reason and of Seeking Truth-René Descartes
    Nov 10 2026
    Discourse on the Method of Rightly Conducting One’s Reason and of Seeking Truth by René Descartes.

    The Discourse on Method is best known as the source of the famous quotation “cogito ergo sum”, “I think, therefore I am.” …. It is a method which gives a solid platform from which all modern natural sciences could evolve. With this work, the idea of skepticism was revived from the ancients such as Sextus Empiricus and modified to account for a truth that Descartes found to be incontrovertible. Descartes started his line of reasoning by doubting everything, so as to assess the world from a fresh perspective, clear of any preconceived notions.

  • Europe and the Faith-Hilaire Belloc

    Europe and the Faith-Hilaire Belloc
    Nov 8 2026
    Europe and the Faith by Hilaire Belloc.

    The Catholic brings to history (when I say "history" in these pages I mean the history of Christendom) self-knowledge. As a man in the confessional accuses himself of what he knows to be true and what other people cannot judge, so a Catholic, talking of the united European civilization, when he blames it, blames it for motives and for acts which are his own. He himself could have done those things in person. He is not relatively right in his blame, he is absolutely right. As a man can testify to his own motive so can the Catholic testify to unjust, irrelevant, or ignorant conceptions of the European story; for he knows why and how it proceeded. Others, not Catholic, look upon the story of Europe externally as strangers.
