New Oxford Review

The New Oxford Review is a magazine of Roman Catholic cultural and theological commentary.[1][2][3] It was founded in 1977 by the American Church Union as an Anglo-Catholic magazine in the Anglican tradition to replace American Church News.[1][2] It was named for the Oxford Movement of the 1830s and 1840s.[2] In 1983, it officially "converted" to Roman Catholicism.[1] It championed Pope John Paul II's condemnation of the dissenting Catholic theologian Hans Küng. It supported Bernard Francis Law in his condemnation of the Catholic Common Ground Initiative.[4]
