ECHO OF THE HEART OF GOD AND STUDIES OF THE SELF-OFFERING OF ST THERESE OF LISIEUX by Giovanni Gennari
Google Books
Published in 2001; probably does not have the material contained in Teresa di Lisieux. Il fascino della santità, I segreti di una "dottrina" ritrovata.
Apparently a copy of the latter book was given to Pope Francis in 2013, who took it on his trip to Brazil.
GIANNI GENNARI. Teresa maestra di teologia
If he had had read this book, would Louis Bouyer have revised his opinion of St. Thérèse and praised her even more? Apparently he was already aware of the difference between what is found in the edited manuscripts (which were nonetheless modified by Agnes) of the saint and what was marketed in her name but perhaps he hadn't made such an extensive study as Gennari, who tells the story of Fr. Combes and Hans Urs von Balthasar (both of whose work was used by Fr. Bouyer) and of others in recovering the true teaching of the Little Flower.

The organ, something else that was introduced in the second millenium and is now taken to be "traditional" by the West?
Is the Organ Really a Sacred Instrument? by Joseph P. Swain
Pianos and guitars are comparatively cheap, and money is tight. Those of us who believe the organ is a sacred instrument have to take the question – “is the organ really a sacred instrument?” – and make it real, a spiritual matter for our pastors and parish councils.

Lessons from an era of confusion by George Weigel
Msgr. Stephen DiGiovanni's book "Aggiornamento on the Hill of Janus" offers a snapshot of a once-stable institution caught in the maelstrom of ecclesiastical confusion and crisis—and offers lessons along the way.

A Sad Marketing Gimmick
One would have wished that sort of thing was limited to Jesuits and Franciscans...
Looks like it is getting much support from the Dominicans in the Philippines and their lay associates.

There is a reason why I resolved to ignore Vatican News this year
And I should probably try to live up to that resolution... Yikes!
Someone needs to give a good theological explanation of what "servant" means with respect to Christ. Maybe Byzantine theologians have already done so.
This looks better:

Card. Müller: “a possible fraternal correction of the Pope seems to me to be very remote”
After all, Cardinal Müller has no authority to silence his brother bishops.

St. Ambrose of Milan
Pravoslavie: Example of St. Ambrose of Milan by Protopresbyter Peter Heers
The Life of the Saint, written by his close disciple Paulinus, relays important information on the state of the Church at the time and the way in which the Saint was elected bishop, which is quite relevant to our contemporary situation and very instructive for us vis-a-vis how the Fathers of the Church dealt with heresy.

CWR Dispatch: Is Fr. Paul Keller’s essay really the way "Amoris Laetitia" should be read? by Edward N. Peters
Keller’s essay illustrates how pastors are going to stumble into accepting the central flaw in AL: implicitly assuming that a Catholic’s assessment of his or her own conscience is the sole criterion governing a minister’s decision to give holy Communion to a member of the faithful.
