Book Synopsis Illustrious Authors of the Order of St. Benedict by : Johannes Trithemius
Download or read book Illustrious Authors of the Order of St. Benedict written by Johannes Trithemius and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-04-04 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The love of learning and the cultivation of a literary culture are central to the charism of Benedictine monasticism, and the Order of St. Benedict has produced countless illustrious authors over its fifteen centuries of existence. Indeed, throughout the Middle Ages, Benedictine monasteries functioned as the primary repositories of knowledge and the leading centers of learning for all Western Europe. In his Illustrious Authors of the Order of St. Benedict, the great early Renaissance abbot and polymath Johannes Trithemius compiled a catalogue of the outstanding writers of the order, from its inception in the early sixth century until the end of the fifteenth century. This magisterial and much-respected work of reference, which has not hitherto been available in English, provides not only encyclopedic biographical and bibliographic data on each Benedictine author, but is punctuated by many striking and illuminating anecdotes and observations. Moreover, it provides profound reflections on monastic life, values, and culture, and an insight into Trithemius's own remarkable personality and vision for his order.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: That the Rule of St. Benedict has been highly and deservedly esteemed is universally admitted. The name of its holy and illustrious author, the wisdom, prudence and sublime maxims, which shine in every page of this Rule, fully establish its claim to solid merit. Those excellent qualities obtained for it the approbation of the Holy See, in the first instance, and subsequently that of many Ecclesiastical Councils, which honoured it with the distinguished title of The Holy Rule. Many Religious Orders of the Western Church adopted it, secular princes and sovereigns studiously read it, declaring that they found in the prudent maxims, and divine wisdom inculcated by the holy Legislator, important light and assistance for the good government of their States.

Book excerpt: From the time it was first promulgated in the sixth century, The Rule of St. Benedict has been one of the most influential, enduring documents of Western civilization. Composed for the guidance of his own monks at Monte Cassino, St. Benedict's Rule has become the basis for the rules of practically every Christian monastic community in the West. In it are the guidelines for living the spiritual life -- through work, prayer, study, obedience, community, and moderate asceticism. This acclaimed edition of The Rule of St. Benedict is a highly accessible modern translation that conveys the spirit and logic of the original text. It contains an invaluable in-depth Introduction that explores the development and spread of Christian monasticism; a biographical sketch of St. Benedict; a discussion of the structure and implementation of his Rule; its value and impact on religious orders from the Middle Ages down through history; its tremendous influence on Western culture and civilization; and, finally, various texts of the Rule.
