The Catholic World, Vol. 23, April, 1876-September, 1876. A Monthly Magazine of General Literature and Science

"The Catholic World, Vol. 23, April, 1876-September, 1876" by Various, is a monthly magazine that gives readers a glimpse into the world of Catholic thought and how it was viewed in the late 1800s. It's like a time capsule filled with articles and essays discussing religion, society, and science from a Catholic point of view. It shows what Catholics were talking about and how they saw their place in the world. One article, "How We Are Misrepresented Abroad," serves as a really interesting example, as it digs into how American diplomats were supposedly biased against the Catholic Church, especially when dealing with countries like Mexico and this shapes one facet of discourse for defending Catholic faith.
