Description: Esolen explains that Catholic Social Teaching isn't focused exclusively on serving the poor, but offers us a rich treasure of insights about the nature of man.
Brief description: Anthony Esolen is a Princeton graduate, the author or translator of thirty books (including Dante's Divine Comedy), and a regular contributor to Crisis Magazine, Chronicles, Touchstone, Magnificat, American Greatness, and Front Porch Republic. Dr. Esolen is widely praised as one of the best Catholic writers of our age. His engaging, conversational style opens eyes, engages minds, and changes hearts.

He and his wife Debra publish the web magazine Word and Song, designed, by means of linguistic history, music, art, classic poetry, and film, to bring to people daily encounters with what is beautiful, good, and true.
Review Quotes: "The lively mind of Professor Esolen is incapable of cliche, and he is artful in detecting the platitudes which have misled much of our culture's understanding of the social order." -- Fr. George Rutler "Author"
