Triumph (magazine)
''Triumph'' was a monthly American magazine published by L. Brent Bozell, Jr. from 1966 to 1976. It published commentary on religious, philosophical, and cultural issues from the traditionalist Catholic perspective. Origin Bozell founded ''Triumph'' in 1966 as a magazine for American Catholic conservatives following the Second Vatican Council. Bozell, previously an editor for ''National Review'' founded by his brother-in-law William F. Buckley, Jr., was put off by the insufficient respect the largely Catholic editorial board of the magazine paid to Catholic social teaching. Specifically, he protested the prevailing attitude of " Mater si, magistra no" towards Pope John XXIII's papal encyclicals '' Mater et Magistra'' and '' Pacem in terris''.

Celtic Cross
upright 0.75 , A Celtic cross symbol The Celtic cross is a form of ringed cross, a Christian cross featuring a nimbus or ring, that emerged in the British Isles and Western Europe in the Early Middle Ages. It became widespread through its use in the high crosses erected across the British Isles, especially in regions evangelised by Hiberno-Scottish missionaries, from the ninth through the 12th centuries. A staple of Insular art, the Celtic cross is essentially a Latin cross with a nimbus surrounding the intersection of the arms and stem. Scholars have debated its exact origins, but it is related to earlier crosses featuring rings. The form gained new popularity during the Celtic Revival of the 19th century; the name "Celtic cross" is a convention dating from that time.
