Brownson's Quarterly Review (1844–75), founded by
Orestes Brownson when the columns of the
Democratic Review, which he had helped to edit, were closed to him because of its subscribers' complaints. The magazine reflected Brownson's conversion to Catholicism, although it attacked what he called “radicalism and despotism” in the Church. In 1864 he turned to a chauvinistic interest in American civilization, and then, after a year, returned to Catholicism after the sincerity of his former standards had been questioned.
