We Remember Maynooth
Founded in 1795, Maynooth College has a singular place in the history of the Irish Church, and indeed the Catholic Church globally. Its beginning was as a small seminary of thirty students and ten professors, most of whom were fleeing the ravages of the French Revolution. It has been the subject of riots in the streets of London and has played host to kings and popes. Its buildings have created one of the loveliest of university campuses and its chapel is among the highest free- standing structures in Ireland. It expanded rapidly, becoming a Pontifical University, a constituent college of the National University of Ireland and, at one time, the largest seminary in world. It has educated many...
Models of Priestly Formation
The preparation of new priests for ministry currently faces closer scrutiny than at any time since the Reformation, and the importance of effective priestly formation has perhaps never been clearer in the entire history of the Church. In Models of Priestly Formation, some of the world’s leading experts on the topic consider priestly formation since Vatican II, explore current best practices internationally, and imagine what the future of such formation might look like. The book promises to become an essential reference for every person involved in priestly formation and for anyone interested in understanding better how it is carried out and how those who do it think about their task. The eBook edition includes four additional essays.

Grand Opportunity
In this groundbreaking work, Timothy McMahon reexamines the significance of the Gaelic revival in forming Ireland’s national identity. In their determination to preserve and extend the use of Irish as a spoken language and artistic medium, members of the Gaelic League profoundly influenced Irish culture and literature in the twentieth century. McMahon explores that influence by scrutinizing the ways in which society absorbed their messages, tracing the interaction between the ideas propagated by the League and the variety of meanings ordinary people attached to Ireland and to being Irish. Comparing press and police reports with census data and local directories, the author establishes the first comprehensive profile of League membership. McMahon’s ability to access both English- and Irish-language sources offers readers a rare and richly detailed analysis of primary materials. Grand Opportunity addresses questions that are central to understanding modern Irish identity and makes an indispensable contribution to the wider study of national identity formation.
Acedia and the Transformation of Spiritual Malaise
Father Martin McAlinden was a Catholic priest from the Diocese of Dromore and Director of PastoralTheology at St Patrick's College Maynooth. Martin was studying for a doctorate at the University ofChester when, in 2016, he sadly died. His research had focussed on the spiritual malaise experiencedby many priests in the Catholic Church in Ireland. In response, he developed a theology rooted in theancient notion of acedia and he used this as a way of talking about the spiritual crises many priestsexperience. The ancient response to acedia, the command to stay in one's cell and pray, providedMartin with a way of speaking about how this spiritual malaise might be transformed. This bookbrings together a major article that has emerged out of Martin's research, together with a seriesof responses from many who accompanied him during his studies. It is offered to Martin's brotherpriests, and to the whole Church, as a gift of love that might, it is hoped, contribute to the spiritualrenewal of the Church.
