Extractions: THE REPUBLICAN: Orestes Brownson and the Truth About America (Peter Augustine Lawler, December 2002, First Things) With Brownson and Murray, we can say that there is an American tradition of Thomistic realism that opposes itself to the dominant American tradition of contractualism and pragmatism, while also resolutely affirming the achievement of American constitutionalism. We might add to the American Thomist tradition the great literary artists Walker Percy and Flannery O'Connor . Percy, for example, realistically affirmed the truth and goodness of science while also rejecting scientific claims that do not acknowledge the reality of the distinctive excellence, and destiny, of human beings. Brownson and Murray teach us the important lesson that the beliefs we hold in common as Americans must really be true if our liberty is to be defensible. Where Brownson goes beyond Murray is in his robust defense of the necessarily national or territorial character of democracy. This was arguably his keenest insightand one that contemporary Catholics, in America and elsewhere, inclined as they are toward skepticism of national sovereignty and admiration of transpolitical institutions, would do well to ponder. For Brownson, national solidarity is a natural human potential rooted in necessary human dependence. It also accords with the real but limited human powers of knowing and loving one another. The universality of reason and even religion, given our natural possibilities and limitations, cannot be the model for political order. The proper political form is thus the nation, the modern equivalent of the polis. Brownson thought national solidarity perfectly compatible with the solidarity of the human race through reason and faith, as long as the state was properly oriented toward the truth.

After converting to the Roman Catholic Church in 1844, he devoted his journal, Brownson's Quarterly Review , to the spread of Catholic doctrine.

Extractions: Bronx City of New York Parks and Recreation Fordham University was founded in 1841 as St. John's College by the Right Reverend John Hughes, later to become the city's first Roman Catholic archbishop. Its first president, Right Reverend John McClosky, became the nation's first cardinal. The Jesuits bought the college in 1846. St. John's College was reestablished as a university in 1907, and became Fordham University. Most of its graystone Collegiate Gothic buildings were designed by architect Emile G. Perrot between 1911 and 1930. Of particular interest is the early Rose Hill Manor House of rough-stone in the country Greek Revival style built in 1838. Two literary tales relate to the campus. It is said that the university's 98 acres were the setting for James Fenimore Cooper's novel

Roman Catholicism & American Utopianism The names Orestes A. Brownson (18031876) and Isaac T. Hecker (1819-1888), Orestes Augustus Brownson was born in Stockbridge, VT, on Sept. http://www.sspx.ca/Angelus/1999_August/Roman_Catholicism_and_American_Utopianism
Extractions: Part 1 The Divergent Paths of Orestes A. Brownson and Isaac T. Hecker Dr. Justin Walsh Fourierism may be theoretically true, but it is a theory, a spirit without a body, and therefore remains, and will remain dead, unless taken up and quickened by the Church. - Orestes Brownson to Isaac Hecker, Nov. 8, 1843. [William Henry] Channing is down further and further into the Fourier Movement. Without religion as the basis and that presupposes the Church, [it] seems to me there is no hope for these movements. - Isaac Hecker to Orestes Brownson, Mar. 19, 1844. During the next 20 years dozens of emulators founded Owen-like communes in the United States. Brook Farm, established in 1841 near Boston, was by far the most famous. The roster of communards who resided there for at least awhile reads like a "who's who" of radical intellectuals in the 1840's. The names Orestes A. Brownson (1803-1876) and Isaac T. Hecker (1819-1888), perhaps the two most famous American converts to Roman Catholicism in the 19th century, were included. So were the names Frances ("Fanny") Wright and Margaret Fuller, shameless advocates of free love as a necessary prerequisite to the emancipation of women. Others present from time to time included poets Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau, novelist Nathaniel Hawthorne, and ministers of the gospel Theodore Parker and William Ellery Channing.
