The Aesthetics of Settlement

George Carter November 2, 2024

Britain, like Europe, is suffering from a spiritual decay which manifests in the deterioration of its built environment.

A Manifesto of Architectural Hope

Felix James Miller December 21, 2022

Alain de Botton’s book tells us that we can and should regain hope about the future of our homes and cities. Architecture has been in a sad state in the West for many decades, but there are also glimmers of promise.

Light Above Politics

Mark Dooley November 18, 2022

Politicians come and go, but the monarch provides continuity in the life of a nation that looks beyond the moment.

Dying Beauties: On Saving Romania’s National Architecture

Sebastian Morello November 3, 2022

Streets in Bucharest are lined with decaying neo-Brâncovenesc buildings. Instead of restoration, city-planners are heaping rubbish upon rubbish, building the same junk that has ruined cities from one end of Europe to the other.

In the Cathedral

Kurt Hofer October 25, 2022

All Cathedrals, I have realized, have a smell, a sound, and a feel that binds them to one another; it’s a congruity of design that unites believers wherever they go.

Folk Music and Dancing with Children

Sebastian Morello September 10, 2022

Listening to pop music—like the rest of modernity—marks an education in unreality, which is no education at all. Folk music, on the other hand, is invariably rooted in the concrete reality of life.

Carlos Perona Calvete August 17, 2022

It isn’t easy for Europeans to love a place. Which is a provocative way of saying it isn’t easy for modern people to do so. We—moderns in general—are biassed towards language, and sooner see what we believe than believe what we see.

The Limits of Oikophilia

Paul Maritz June 19, 2022

As we look upon our own societies with an ever-decreasing patience at the loss of religious values, we must collectively re-assess our city walls. Are the cracks merely contained to the surface, or does our city lie in ruins?

The Destruction of Fatherhood Leads to the Destruction of the Fatherland

Grégor Puppinck June 1, 2022

Families are a wall; a bulwark against dictatorship, a bastion of liberty. The family is at odds with the ideology of the postmodernists. This is why they hate it so much and are attempting to destroy it.

Freedom

R.R. Reno May 8, 2022

Whether it is the threat of being canceled or anxious concerns that we’ll lose out in the meritocratic race for success, we’re more and more enslaved and less and less free. We’ve lost sight of the true sources of freedom, which come not from permission but from commitment.
