Avant-propos - Studia Moralia

4 AVANT-PROPOS
the publication and its genuinely global distribution have made it
possible to attend to an ever-broader range of pertinent themes. If
one were to single out a particular contribution of Prof. Gallagher it
would perhaps be his attention to the Alphonsian moral tradition,
culminating in the handsome volume produced to commemorate the
proclamation of Alphonsus as Patron of Confessors and Moralists.
Behind these various developments lie many hours of deliberation,
administration and sheer hard work. On behalf of our readership,
and on behalf of the Alphonsian Academy, I would like to
express our most fervent thanks to Raphael for this huge service, and
wish him success in his future work.
