The Case for Liturgical Restoration, which gathers the complete and definitive texts of the widely-admired "position papers" of the International Federation Una Voce, tackles the questions: What is the point of the Extraordinary Form? What is its rationale? What can it contribute to the life of the Church here and now? Taking up one by one the most controversial topics in litrugy today--among them, active participation, the role of the laity, eastward orientation, extensive silence, the use of Latin and Gregorian chant, male-only service of the sanctuary, communion received kneeling and on the tongue, the calendar, the lectionary, veiling, fasting, and the needs of the New Evangelization--the chapters argue that the traditional Roman Rite has its own internal logic, its own way of offering worthy worship to God and of sanctifying souls. It is a way often notably distinct from that of the reformed liturgy, and for this reason much in danger of being misunderstood or missed entirely by the casual critic. From back cover

Il culto della divina misericordia è il farmaco spirituale per l’umanità contemporanea che, afflitta da tanti mali, avverte un urgente bisogno di speranza. Al tema è dedicata la riflessione contenuta nel volume, in cui si inserisce perfettamente il riferimento, sia pur breve, al Servo di Dio padre Felice Maria Cappello, SJ, sacerdote morto in concetto di santità e insigne canonista. Egli, con il suo esempio di vita virtuosa e con il suo straordinario ingegno, continua ad essere segno tangibile della divina misericordia.

"His Eminence Raymond Leo Cardinal Burke unpacks in a clear, concise way the history and significance of the Catholic Church's long-held teaching regarding who is worthy to receive Holy Communion - and who is not. Referencing writings of Church Fathers, Pope St. John Paul II, numerous saints, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, and Scripture itself, Cardinal Burke cogently expresses the continuity of what Pope Benedict XVI referred to as a "perennial Church teaching." In an age in which misguided pluralism has caused doctrinal relativism to run rampant, Cardinal Burke explains Canon Law 915, which reads: "The excommunicated and interdicted after the imposition or declaration of the penalty and others who remain obstinately in manifestly grievous sin are not to be admitted to Holy Communion." Previously published for the clergy, this updated version includes commentary written for the laity by Catholic Action for Faith and Family president Thomas McKenna to help explain such points as: How the Church responded to historical scenarios of scandal, heresy, and unbelief (and their relevance today!); Circumstances that call for a person to refrain from receiving Holy Communion; When a communicant should be denied Holy Communion (and by whom); How this applies to politicians who continue to publicly support grave sins; What six saints said about properly receiving Holy Communion; The insidious fruits of scandalous behavior and the "objective harm" that results"--

Roberto de Mattei steers us through centuries of Church history concerning both the wise, and the disastrous, decisions of popes and councils: from the role of Pope Liberius in the Arian crisis to the troubled Vatican compromises with the French Third Republic;from the Ostpolitik and liturgical rupture of Paul VI to the erosion of dogmatic truths and moral absolutes under Pope Francis. In these, popes have been mistaken in their political, pastoral, and even magisterial acts, and the resistance of the faithful to such acts is a duty and a cause of benefit. Along the way we are offered an illuminating catechism in ecclesiology, the nature of the Magisterium, and the limits of papal authority. Especially helpful are de Mattei’s discussion of the hypothesis of a heretical pope, the difference between filial resistance and disobedience, and the significance and implications of recent public remonstrations with the current pontificate.
