Hi Askel5,
Terribly sorry I won't be able to attend. Sounds like a great event and one which I would enjoy greatly. Here are some picks for the 'binder':
* authors and books:
Dietrich von Hildebrand:
Trojan Horse in the City of God (I read that one last summer - excellent!)
Pierre Blet:
Pius XII and World War II (A good rebuttal of the current revisionist lies currently out there.)
Ian Wilson:
The Blood and the Shroud (The best book on the Shroud of Turin I've ever read.)
* periodicalsNew Oxford ReviewThe Wanderer (I subscribe to both of these).
* websiteshttp://forum.catholic.org/ (I post here occasionally. )
http://www.arxpub.com (Shameless plug for my business: A Catholic-leaning book publisher)
* traditional Catholic organizations of note * so-called "Catholic" organizations and networks on which to keep an eye * miscellany ... as related to the proposed topics intended for discussion -- liturgy, priesthood, human life, etc. -- or simply personal favorites.
Yours is the best excuse of all! Thanks, Antoninus.
