Contract Theory and the Status of the Individual in Suarez (1548˗1617) and Locke (1632-1704) by Jean-Paul Coujou

Contract Theory and the Status of the Individual in Suarez (1548˗1617) and Locke (1632-1704) by Jean-Paul Coujou

Contract Theory and the Status of the Individual in Suarez (1548˗1617) and Locke (1632-1704)

by Jean-Paul Coujou

Coujou’s contract theory examines how political authority emerges from the tension between natural freedom and the necessity of civil order. Drawing on Suárez and Locke, it argues that legitimate power arises through collective consent grounded in natural law, not domination. Political society is thus a rational and moral construction oriented toward the common good, where law mediates freedom, equality, and obligation, ensuring that authority remains accountable to the principles of justice inherent in human nature.

The Development of Political Theory by Richard Bishirjian

The Development of Political Theory by Richard Bishirjian

The Development of Political Theory: A Critical Analysis

by Richard Bishirjian

Students of political science properly hunger for comprehensive approaches to political theory that situate the major ideas that govern the world today within a theoretical framework. This book, originally published in 1978 by The Society for the Study of Traditional Culture, was written in response to what is in effect an intellectual vacuum. It attempts to provide the essential background necessary for an intelligent view of contemporary intellectual culture, supplementing the undergraduate student’s readings in the works of primary authors and providing graduate students with a primer on beginnings or elements of political theory.

Paperback: $19.95 | Kindle: $9.99

The Uncreated Fire: A Metaphysical Offering in Procession and Return by Basil, Obl. O.S.B.

The Uncreated Fire: A Metaphysical Offering in Procession and Return by Basil, Obl. O.S.B.

The Uncreated Fire: A Metaphysical Offering in Procession and Return

by Basil, Oblate Order of St. Benedict (Obl. O.S.B.)

What if the deepest truth of the universe is not concept, not structure, not sequence— but fire?

What if the Trinity is not a doctrine to be explained but a flame to be received?

What if the Church is not two traditions but one fire burning in many forms?

What if creation itself is a procession of flame returning to its source?

In this groundbreaking metaphysical work, Basil, Oblate of the Order of St. Benedict, unveils the ancient truth that has burned beneath the Church from the beginning: that God is uncreated fire, and that the destiny of all things is return.

Drawing from Augustine, Dionysius, Bonaventure, the Eastern Fathers, and the silent witnesses of wounded holiness, this book reveals the unity of East and West, the architecture of the Trinity, and the eschatological fire that awaits the cosmos.

This is not a book. It is a school. A school whose only teacher is God. A school whose curriculum is flame. A school whose end is communion.

Enter the fire.

Paperback: $14.95 | Kindle: $9.99

TESTIMONIALS

“This work advances a luminous metaphysics where fire, Logos, and communion converge. It does not explain the divine; it initiates the reader into participation, where theology yields to encounter and meaning returns as consecrated flame.” – Dr. Sebastian Mahfood, OP, author of The Narrative Spirituality of Dante’s Divine Comedy

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Basil (Obl.O.S.B.) is an Oblate of the Order of St. Benedict, formed by the silence of monastic life, the discipline of metaphysical inquiry, and the fire of Trinitarian theology. He writes at the intersection of tradition and revelation, East and West, silence and fire. His work seeks one thing: to unveil the unity of the Church and the destiny of creation in the uncreated fire of God. He lives in St. Augustine, Florida, where he continues to write, pray, and guard the flame at our nation’s first parish and at the Shrine of Our Lady of La Leche, the oldest Marian shrine in the United States.

The Breath that Never Ages by Basil, Obl. O.S.B.

The Breath that Never Ages by Basil, Obl. O.S.B.

The Breath that Never Ages

by Basil, Oblate Order of St. Benedict (Obl. O.S.B.)

This is not a book. It is a breath.

A theological meditation on time, erosion, and divine endurance,  The Breath That Never Ages is the final offering of Basil, Oblate Order of St. Benedict (Obl.O.S.B.). It does not continue his earlier work—That the Figure May Remain Whole—it transfigures it. Not in defiance, but in reverence.

Here, symbols fade. Prayer trembles. Form cracks. But the breath survives. Theology does not ascend. It does not collapse. It abides.

This manuscript is for those who no longer seek to preserve the figure. For those who no longer defend the scaffold. For those whose breath falters, yet remains.

It is not a map. It is not a scaffold. It is not a conclusion.

It is the breath that never ages. Let it be received.

Paperback: $9.99 | Kindle: $9.99

TESTIMONIALS

“This work moves beyond symbol into silence, where breath endures and theology yields. It does not persuade; it consecrates, inviting the reader to relinquish form and receive what remains in reverent, contemplative surrender.” – Dr. Sebastian Mahfood, OP, author of The Narrative Spirituality of Dante’s Divine Comedy
