Icons of Christian humanism – Oxford Jesuits: Plater
Considered by some of the older generation to be something of a rebel, Fr Charles Plater SJ (1875-1920) was best known as a vigorous promoter of Catholic social teaching and action and an early promoter of the working men’s retreat movement. He was Master of Campion Hall from 1916 to a few months before his premature death in 1920. His life and thought remain a powerful challenge to us today.
