Goretti Publications, for Catholic publishing. http://gorpub.freeshell.org 29 February 2008 en favicon.png http://gorpub.freeshell.org 24 March 2011 A new version of the Latin rosary booklet, which corrects a minor grammatical error in the Fatima prayer. This is a different grammatical error than the last; the last one involved three whole letters, while this one involves only one ("illos" was corrected to "illas"). http://gorpub.freeshell.org/pamph.html#rosary 23 March 2011 The _Tertia Pars_, the third part (and fourth volume) of St. Thomas Aquinas's great work _Summa Theologica_, is now available on the Goretti Publications website. This completes the version of the _Summa_ we will be publishing. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/books.html#summatheo 18 March 2011 A new version of the Prima Secundae, now Version 1.1. This incorporates the improved table of contents and formatting that was introduced in the Secunda Secundae. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/books.html#summatheo 17 March 2011 A new version of the Latin rosary booklet, which corrects a minor grammatical error in the Fatima prayer. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/pamph.html#rosary 26 February 2011 The first of four parts. Now presented with an improved, more useful table of contents. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/books.html#summatheo 17 February 2011 The third of four parts, the Secunda Secundae comprises most of St. Thomas's moral teachings and his teachings on politics, economics, and the law. This features better formatting than the Prima Pars and the Prima Secundae, along with a much more useful table of contents, both of which will be incorporated into new versions of the other volumes shortly. Published in the original Latin. 1189 pages. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/books.html#summatheo 13 February 2011 Uploaded new pamphlets, one in English and one in Latin, describing the holy Rosary, how to pray it, and giving the texts of the prayers themselves. It's printed in quarto, designed to be printed on one 8.5"x11" sheet of paper, folded into fourths (cut before or after) into a booklet, and used that way. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/pamph.html#rosary 31 January 2011 A new version of the Prima Pars; visually identical to the old, except that the running header was wrong on about three pages of the original version. This has been corrected. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/books.html#summatheo 11 January 2011 A new version of the _De Regno_ of St. Thomas Aquinas. This version is almost identical to the last; the format of the headings is slightly changed, and the internal code has been cleaned up, but it is otherwise the same. Now version 1.4. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/books.html#deregno 14 December 2010 A new version of the _Biblia Sacra iuxta Vulgatam Clementinam_ is now available. The typesetting is just about where I'd like it to be aesthetically; a few minor kinks to work out, but only minor ones. I'm overall very, very happy with this. No typesetting could possibly be worthy of Sacred Writ, but I pray that I can now be said to have done my best. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/books.html#biblia 3 December 2010 A new version of the _Biblia Sacra iuxta Vulgatam Clementinam_ is now available. I've substantially changed the formatting and it's finally getting close to satisfying me aesthetically. Of course, nothing is too good for the Sacred Scriptures, so I will continue to attempt to get it right. Until then, this is _very_ close. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/books.html#biblia 2 December 2010 The first part of the second part of St. Thomas Aquinas's monumental _Summa Theologica_ is released. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/books.html#summatheo 15 November 2010 Substantially improved typsetting for _The Distributism Debate_ and the _De Regno_. Note that by "improved typesetting" here I mean "better formatted for automated page imposition and similar manipulation," as the typesetting has always been excellent. Similar comments go for the Biblia Sacra below. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/books.html 13 November 2010 Substantially improved typsetting for the Latin Vulgate. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/books.html#biblia 11 November 2010 Some improved formatting on _The Distributism Debate_, _The Modesty Handbook_, _Biblia Sacra Vulgata_, and _De Regno_ were uploaded, boosting their version numbers. These formatting changes altered the proportions of the text block and changed its position on the page to facilitate imposition for printing and binding. (Always possible; now requires less post-processing.) The remainder of our works will be forthcoming shortly. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/books.html 2 November 2010 A typeset version of the Prima Pars of St. Thomas Aquinas's great theological text, the _Summa Theologica_. The first of four parts (the Prima Pars, Prima Secundae Partis, Secunda Secundae Partis, and the Tertia Pars, pending publication), this volume is offered in the original Latin and will, God willing, be a boon to students of Latin and of Catholic theology. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/books.html#summatheo 31 August 2010 A new version of _Distributism: A Catholic System of Economics_, customized for electronic viewing rather than printing. It contains hyperlinks in the index and table of contents, as well as bookmarks which appear in almost all pdf viewers. This is a test feature; if it is well-received, electronic versions of all Goretti Publications books may be released. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/books.html#distrib 31 August 2010 An updated version of Distributism, correcting a typo which occurred in several places ("Luckey" was incorrectly spelled "Lucky"). Now Version 2.2. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/books.html#distrib 12 August 2010 The classic work written by St. Thomas Aquinas to the king of Cyprus, detailing the principles and ends of kingship. Contains great insights not only as regards kingship, but also as regards government and political society in general. Reprinted here in the original Latin. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/books.html#deregno 25 July 2010 A new article on _The Covadonga Review_, titled _Individualism and the State_. Examines modern notions of the individual and his role within the state, explains the Catholic ideas of the same particularly in light of St. Thomas Aquinas, and backs up St. Thomas's conclusions with the social encyclicals. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/cr.html#indiv 22 July 2010 Updated the link to the new site of the Distributist Review on the links page. Visit it if you haven't already; it's a wealth of information on Catholic social teaching, and is continually expanding, including new pieces as well as classics by authors such as Chesterton, Belloc, and so on. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/links.html 28 June 2010 The Clementine text of the Biblia Sacra Vulgata, complete, from the Clementine text project (q.v.). http://gorpub.freeshell.org/books.html#biblia 17 September 2009 Pope Benedict XVI's landmark social encyclical: the good, the *really* good, and what gives just cause for concern. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/cr.html#mixed 2009 Jun 11 Significantly expanded the agriculture section in both breadth and clarity. Now Version 2.0. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/books.html#distrib 2009 Jun 10 Fixed a few typos and LaTeX compilation warnings; also added one meaningful sentence to the section on agriculture and technology. Expect some significant expansions to this section within the next month or so. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/books.html#distrib 2009 Jun 1 A new article was uploaded to the Covadonga Review site entitled _Distributism and Modern Economics_. It gives a basic overview of a sensible economic system and critiques our own system from that perspective, paying particular attention to our system's treatment of money and its confusion of money with wealth. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/cr.html#econsys 2008 Mar 24 Uploaded a new version of _The Modesty Handbook_ with a much-improved flow chart, abandoning XY-Pic in favor of Basser Lout. The flow-chart now looks much, much better, and will, God willing, be much more useful accordingly. Version of _The Modesty Handbook_ is now 1.4. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/books.html#modesty 2008 Mar 13 Made some minor typographical changes to _Distributism: A Catholic System of Economics_. "Minor" as in changed "optimum be" to "optimal value by." I also, even more minorly, altered the code to produce a more typographically correct spacing between adjacent double and single quotation marks. No new content was added. Version is now 1.4. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/books.html#distrib 2008 Mar 5 A new pamphlet, entitled "What Books are Inspired?", is now available from the Goretti Publications pamphlet page. It gives a brief overview of the history of the Bible and how much confusion there was over what books were really inspired and what weren't, then shows that the Catholic solution, that the Church shows us the answer, is the only way to save the Bible from uncertainty and confusion. Version 1.0. http://gorpub.freeshell.org/pamph.html#churchrev 2008 Feb 29 Goretti Publications now has an RSS feed. This will spare people from having to periodically check back, as their RSS readers will let them know when there is an update or new item on Goretti Publications. May we suggest Firefox or snownews as readers? http://gorpub.freeshell.org/gorfeed.xml
