The Stripping of the Altars
by Eamon Duffy
Price: $12.92
Paperback
- 700 pages
Paperback: 700 pages
Publisher: Yale University Press; 2nd edition (May 10, 2005) Language: English
ISBN: 0300108281
Product Dimensions: 9.3 x 6.3 x 1.7 inches
This prize-winning
account of the pre-Reformation church recreates lay people’s experience
of religion in fifteenth-century England. Eamon Duffy shows that late medieval
Catholicism was neither decadent nor decayed, but was a strong and vigorous
tradition, and that the Reformation represented a violent rupture from a
popular and theologically respectable religious system. For this edition,
Duffy has written a new Preface reflecting on recent developments in our
understanding of the period.

Note: this is a
Conciliar (i.e. post-Vatican II) Catechism and has errors, but its references
are often wonderful. Read a
critique here and
another here
(will open in new browser window). You can read various Catechisms online
by visiting the links below. The Baltimore, Trent, and Pius X Catechisms
are perfectly orthodox but don't have the references the new Catechism does.
I recommend reading the older Catechisms and critiques of the new Catechism
for Truth, and the new Catechism online for references for further study.
In other words, if you only have money for one Catechism, get an older one
and read the new one online along with critiques of it:

Dimensions (in inches): 1.25 x 9.28 x 6.26

This Is the Faith
covers everything the convert or inquirer needs to know about the Catholic
faith, and does so with a thoroughness that is at once completely satisfying,
but never trying. Moreover, its approach is always dignified, reverent and
commanding of respect. The result is that the reader will garner a true picture
of the reasonableness, thoroughness and beauty of the Catholic religion that
- with grace - will all but guarantee the assent of his will if he approaches
the book with honesty and integrity.
