Today, as readers may know, is the second anniversary of the death of the magazine’s founder and long-time editor, Father Richard John Neuhaus. Here are a few sources of his writing, lectures, and interviews, and the comments of others on him, including obituaries:
The First Things resources , including obituaries, interviews, and lectures.
An interview on his becoming a Catholic from 1991.
Another interview, this one from 2005, in which he discusses the sex abuse scandal and his reasons for being hopeful about the Church (rather than optimistic).
And finally, a very long list of articles on and by Father Neuhaus (which includes links to similar pages on others of like — or, Father Neuhaus would hasten to say, much greater — weight and influence, from Newman to Guardini to Benedict).
