His latest book, a monumental study of Church history, ''Black Legends and the Light of the World'' (Remnant Press, 2011), has been hailed as "required reading for anyone concerned about the situation in the Church and the world" (Dr. Joseph Shaw, D. Phil., Oxford, President of the Latin Mass Society of England and Wales). He was recently the central interview subject for a PBS documentary on the annual Paris-Chartres Pilgrimage by traditionalist Catholics from around the world.〔http://www.pbs.org/wnet/religionandethics/2009/06/19/june-19-2009-pilgrimage-to-chartres/3283/〕 For more than twenty years, Rao has led the Roman Forum's annual symposium at Lake Garda, which attracts scholars of renown from the United States and Europe.〔http://www.romanforum.org/from-the-director/〕 A frequent contributor to ''The Remnant'', a traditional Catholic biweekly, Dr. Rao is known for writing his columns from Rocco's Cafe, an Italian pastry shop in Greenwich Village Manhattan, for several months of the year. As a traditionalist Catholic, he is a strong critic of neoconservatism in both politics and the Church. == References == 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「John Rao」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
