The Tablet is a weekly Catholic journal which has been reporting on events of significance for more than 170 years. Launched in 1840 just 10 years before the restoration of the hierarchy in England and Wales, it is the oldest surviving weekly journal in Britain.
On succeeding Catherine Pepinster as editor in July 2017, Brendan Walsh said: ‘I will do all I can to cherish and protect its values and the quality of its journalism.’ Among the most widely read columns are View from Rome by Rome correspondent Christopher Lamb, features and comment by Deputy Editor Lorna Donlon, global coverage of the universal church overseen by Foreign Editor James Roberts, plus more from Home News Editor Bernadette Kehoe and others.
The Tablet attracts some of the best writers in the UK and abroad to its pages. These include Christopher Howse, Clifford Longley, Joanna Moorhead, Richard Leonard, Peter Hennessy, Melanie McDonagh, Carmody Grey, Sara Maitland, Marco Politi, John Cornwell, Peter Stanford, Margaret Archer, Eamon Duffy and others. Glimpses of Eden, a weekly column by Jonathan Tulloch, is enduring popular, as is Living Spirit, reflections linked to the liturgical calendar. The Tablet’s editorial viewpoint as expressed weekly in its leaders builds on the legacy of the Second Vatican Council in a manner that is both contemporary and challenging.
