The Church Fathers · est. 1946 · 78 volumes and counting
Founded by Johannes Quasten and Joseph C. Plumpe in 1946 under Newman Press, continued today as an imprint of Paulist Press — one of the longest-running English patristic translation series still actively adding volumes, now reaching well past the Fathers proper into early medieval Latin writers.
