	Hilaire Belloc
		Hilaire Belloc was born in 1870 in a village a dozen miles from Paris a few days before the start of the Franco-Prussian war.
		In that war, Belloc lost his son, Louis; then another son, Peter, died on active service in the war of 1939-46, so Belloc would certainly have recalled the saying of Herodotus that "In pace sons bury their fathers; in war fathers bury their sons".
		Hilaire Belloc was a big, turbulent and complicated man, and no subject for hagiography.

	Hilaire Belloc - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		One of Belloc's most famous statements was "the faith is Europe and Europe is the faith"; this sums up his strongly-held, orthodox Roman Catholic views, and the cultural conclusions he drew from them, which were expressed at length in many of his works from the period 1920-1940.
		Belloc won that debate from the audience, as the division of the house then showed, and his reputation as a debater was established.
		Belloc's polemics did periodically drift into the realms of bigotry, but he was invariably a tenacious opponent of philosophical anti-Semitism, ostracized friends who made attacks upon individual Jews, and was an inexorable enemy of fascism and all its works, speaking out against German anti-Semitism before the National Socialists came to power.

	NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Hilaire Belloc
		Belloc frequently took pains to point out that tolerance is always of a lesser evil that cannot be vanquished at the moment, but vanquished it ought to be.
		Hilaire Belloc, spreading his many talents and his incredible energy through the essay, a respectable body of very good verse, military history, nonsense novels, biography and books of travel, studies on the road, political polemics, economic theory, concentrated it all into a center, into a synthesized focus: the apostolate of history.
		Indeed, Belloc insisted, it was the hatred for and attack on transubstantiation that formed the center of the bitterness moving the English reformers in the sixteenth century.

	Pope St Pius X and Hilaire Belloc (Seattle Catholic)
		Belloc's state of mind was still critical, as he wrote the month of his journey to Rome to a close friend, John Phillimore — "I am in peril of my intelligence and perhaps of my conduct and therefore of my soul.
		Belloc later remarked, perhaps surprisingly, that "the Pope is looking older but less unhappy than when I saw him eight years ago." This audience seems to have represented something of a turning point in Belloc's psychological — indeed spiritual — recovery.
		Belloc was convinced that people outside the Church would increasingly see Her for what She really was: the sole effective defender of the common sense and common morality of Man and of Reason.

	GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY - HILAIRE BELLOC - ELIZABETH BELLOC CORRESPONDENCE: COLLECTION DESCRIPTION
		Hilaire was 62 at the start of this correspondence and entering the final stages of his career.
		The feelings of grief and loss Hilaire felt at the passing of his wife were compounded by a tremendous sense of remorse for the neglect of his wife and children during the years of their marriage.
		While Hilaire willingly accepted his new position of providing emotional support and moral guidance to the family, he was clearly never comfortable with the day-to-day responsibilities of raising a family and grew dependent on his eldest daughter Eleanor for assistance.

	[minstrels] Tarantella -- Hilaire Belloc
		Belloc is particularly noted for his spirited attack on the then predominant Whig or classical liberal view of European history.
		Belloc also wrote a number of biographies, including Marie Antoinette (1909), James the Second (1928), Richlieu (1930), Oliver Cromwell (1934), and Milton (1935) which are still admired for their lucid and engaging style.
		Belloc weathered these storms with that sort of hard-headed faith he once ascribed to St. Thomas More, who had "nothing to uphold him except resolve." In 1942, however, he suffered a stroke which put an end to his literary work though he continued to live in quiet retirement for another eleven years.

	Hilaire Belloc: Defender of the Faith
		Hilaire Belloc, coupled in memory always with his great friend G. Chesterton, made the defence of the Faith the main business of his life.
		Belloc understood a rooted life, close to nature, as being humanly superior to the massification produced by modern civilization.
		Belloc, as he was called in his old age, did not like the modern world — gray, anonymous, bereft of beauty, craftmanship ignorant of nobility, shorn of dignity.

	ARTICLE-Hilaire Belloc "and All the Rest of It"
		Belloc’s thesis of the after-effects of the Reformation, in a socio-political context, were very accurate and not so outlandish as some of his critics have contested.
		Admittedly, Belloc did not possess, and was the antithesis to, the almost tranquil, gentlemanly and methodical acumen of perhaps a higher ranking Christopher Dawson.
		First and foremost it must be remembered that with Belloc we are dealing with an altogether different species — and it was the nature of his species, metaphysically speaking that is, that made him such an important and singular thinker.

		JOSEPH HILAIRE PIERRE BELLOC, ONE OF THE TRUE LORDS of the English language, was not an Englishman by birth.
		Hilaire Belloc-he dropped the other appendages at an early age-was born at La Celle, near Paris, on July 20, 1870.
		Belloc sat in the House of Commons from 1906 to 1910, but refused to serve a second term because, in his own words, he was "weary of the party system," and thought he could attack politics better from without Parliament than from within.

	Old Thunder: A Life of Hilaire Belloc (review)
		Belloc's father, Louis-Marie Belloc, was a barrister, and his mother, Elizabeth Parkes, was familiar with all the literary lights of Victorian London, counting among her friends and acquaintances, Thackeray, Trollope, George Sand, Elizabeth Gaskell, and George Eliot.
		Belloc and Elodie were married in California on 15th June, 1896 and shortly after returned to London where Belloc began to make a name for himself with the publication of two books of verse, Verses and Sonnets and the immensely popular and much reprinted The Bad Child's Books of Beasts.
		The walk to Rome, Belloc said, was in fulfillment of a vow, presumably made when he left the barracks at Toul for the last time, for it is surely significant that he journeyed to that town to commence his pilgrimage.

	In Defence of Hilaire Belloc by Dennis Barton
		Hilaire Belloc was born in 1870 and died in 1953.
		Belloc considered Montagu to have been particularly guilty of corruption, and to Belloc symbolised all that was detestable in the political life at that time.
		Belloc recognised in 'The Eye Witness' that only a small proportion of Jews were involved, and he was not opposed to Jews on account of their race or religion ((RS 311)).

		And yet Belloc himself was born in France of a French father and English mother, and all his life championed the role of France in the formation of Christian civilization.
		He is not as well known as he should be, although his contemporaries recognized his literary and historical abilities as well as his value as a Catholic apologist.
		Hilaire Belloc was born in 1870 near Paris, but his Father died when he was only two and the family moved to England.

	IDIS-DPF: Hilaire Belloc (1870-1953)
		Joseph-Pierre Hilaire Belloc nasce il 27 luglio 1870 a La Celle-Saint-Cloud, presso Parigi, da padre francese, avvocato, e madre inglese, appartenente all'alta borghesia, convertita al cattolicesimo dal protestantesimo.
		Belloc contesta questo quadro non in quanto antiromano o anticattolico, ma in quanto, soprattutto, antistorico.
		Belloc, pur non trascurando quanto nel protestantesimo - specialmente nella componente di esso più coerente e organizzata, quella calvinista - poteva, da un punto di vista teologico, predisporre alla nascita del capitalismo, non cede alle semplificazioni, di cui sono esempio le ricorrenti letture riduttive delle tesi di Max Weber (1864-1920).

	SurfWax: News, Reviews and Articles On Hilaire Belloc
		It is the tragedy of Europe, for, as Hilaire Belloc said, "Europe is the faith, the faith is Europe." Europe is a construct, built out of the Germans, Vikings, Slavs, Magyars and other peoples who invaded the denuded lands of the old Roman Empire over 800 years.
		English writer Hilaire Belloc, among other Christian thinkers, viewed Islam as an imaginative reworking of heterodox Christianity, borrowing from among other ideas the heresy of Arianism, the position taken by the 4th-century theologian Arius that Jesus Christ was "from another substance" than that of God.
		Hilaire Belloc once described a Catholic approach to life this way: Where re the Catholic sun does shine/There s music and laughter and good red wine/At least I ve found it so/ Benedicamus Domino.

	Why Belloc Still Matters
		Notwithstanding the fervor with which pope after pope—especially, in Belloc’s youth, St. Pius X—had declared support for Jacobins and indeed Girondins to be incompatible with the most basic Christian decency, Belloc remained as eupeptic as any Charles James Fox about the entire pageant of French politics from the Bastille’s fall via Robespierre to Napoleon.
		Belloc’s pan-European credo—“The Faith is Europe,” he observed, “and Europe is the Faith”—sharpened his awareness of the emotional allure that nationalism possessed for other minds more flaccid and less educated than his own.
		Though Belloc has been dead for half a century, the charm, tang, and inspired mischief of his children’s verse—Cautionary Tales, The Bad Child’s Book of Beasts, More Peers, and the rest—remain as addictive to many a primary-school child in our own era as they were to us, and to our parents, and to their parents.

		Belloc does not talk about his subjects as an "expert," but as a lover who looks beyond blemishes to what is good and beautiful.

	Hilaire Belloc - Books of the Great Catholic Historian
		Here the great Belloc shows that ever since the disaster of the Protestant Reformation, Western civilization (which was formed by the Catholic Faith) has been coming apart--since Calvinism opened the door to usury, unbridled competition, the domination of the mind by money, and ultimately the return of slavery.
		Belloc turns his powerful mind, erudition, robust common sense and supreme confidence in the Catholic Faith to a host of topics, inclidng The New Paganism, Legend, Usury, The Schools, The Two Cultures of the West, The Catholic Church and The Modern State, etc. Belloc predicted--and explains--the chaos we now witness.
		Here the great Catholic historain Hilaire Belloc analyzes 5 of the greatest heresies of all time: Arianism, Mohammedanism (Islam), Albigensianism, Protestantism, and "the Modern Attack," showing that the world would be vastly different today if Arianism or Albigensianism had survived--and how it is different because Protestantism survived.
