About Us

Arouca Press has taken the lead on a crucially important niche that blends political theory, Thomistic theology, and practical Catholic wisdom that can help the laity save their souls. —Lifesite interivew, June 10, 2020

Arouca Press is a publishing company dedicated to breathing new life to the intellectual and spiritual foundations that nurtured Catholic culture. Founded on October 13, 2018—the annniversary of the Miracle of the Sun at Fatima—the name "Arouca" refers to the profoundly religious northern region of Portugal, which for many centuries was home to the Abbey of St. Bartholomew until its suppression in the 19th century. Our mission is two-fold: to publish out-of-print Catholic books that re-invigorate the contemplative life to release original titles that provoke discussion about the contemporary world through the perennial lens of the Catholic faith. 

Books are signposts; the road is older. —Antonin-Gilbert Sertillanges, O.P.

Our fidelity to the Magisterium of the Catholic Church is grounded by a radical adherence to eternal truths that can never change. These truths, which the Catholic Church proclaims in their beauty and grandeur, challenge our modern inclinations to disassociate ordinary living from sacramental life or reduce religion to mere abstraction. To combat these tendencies, we must incarnate these truths in our daily lives and recuperate the ideas that have aided Christians in their pursuit of holiness with integrity, intelligence, and a deep love for the faith.

Arouca Press is a young and innovative company honoured to be the exclusive publisher of the collected writings of American columnist, and author, Carol Robinson. Since its reception, Arouca Press has published books on theology, sacred liturgy, the spiritual life, and is committed to fostering a renewed appreciation of the social doctrine of the Catholic Church.
