Benedict XVI: Essays and Reflections on His Papacy

What at first sight seems merely affectionate and light-hearted turns out to be very comprehensive and quite scholarly. All of his works published as cardinal and pope are listed here, often with highlights of the texts included or links to where they can be purchased. A timeline of the principal doctrinal decisions and documents taken from 1981-2005 provides a rather fascinating cameo of recent catholic history. But you can't leave without visiting the shop, selling 'papist' baseball caps and "the cafeteria is closed" steins!
