Book Synopsis In the Valley of Wormwood by : Thomas Merton
Download or read book In the Valley of Wormwood written by Thomas Merton and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2013-10-24 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shortly after entering the monastic life in December 1941, a relatively unknown Trappist monk called Frater Louis-who would later be known to the world by his given name, Thomas Merton-began to pen biographical sketches of early Cistercian blessed and saints. These were initially collected, printed, and bound inexpensively, with no mention of the author, by the Abbey of Gethsemani. They are now published here for a wide audience for the first time. This work of the very young Merton perhaps takes on added significance when one considers the writing that lay just ahead of him at the time. In 1948, his autobiography, The Seven Storey Mountain, was published and soon became an unexpected national bestseller. This long-awaited publication of In the Valley of Wormwood offers a window into Merton's thinking and his spiritual life just a few years before his phenomenal autobiography would see the light of day. Thomas Merton (1915–1968) was a monk of the Abbey of Gethsemani, Kentucky. He was a renowned writer, theologian, poet, and social activist. Patrick Hart, OCSO, a native of Green Bay, Wisconsin, entered the Abbey of Gethsemani in 1951 and served as secretary to Thomas Merton during the last year of his life. He has edited many books by and about Thomas Merton during the thirty-eight years since the latter's death on December 10, 1968. He has served on the board of directors for Cistercian Publications for the past thirty years.

Download or read book The Great Beginning of Cîteaux written by Konrad (Abbot of Eberbach) and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 649 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the closing decades of the twelfth century the Cistercian Order found itself in a world rather different from the one in which it had been founded and began to thrive. The Order was justifiably proud of its achievements and unparalleled diffusion across Europe. It had become an important ecclesiastical and economic power in Europe and developed an institutional structure meant to sustain a large, widespread organization. Yet it had lost its influential spokesman, Bernard of Clairvaux, and as the century drew to a close, religious sensibilities were changing. The new mendicant orders, the Franciscans and the Dominicans, and the impulses they embodied, were to shift the center of gravity in Christian religious life for centuries to come.

Download or read book The Absinthe Forger written by Evan Rail and published by Melville House. This book was released on 2024-10-15 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An astonishing true crime story about an eccentric grifter who blew up the lucrative black market for vintage bottles of the legendary drink of artistic renegades, absinthe . . . Thought to be hallucinogenic and banned globally for a century, absinthe is once again legal and popular. Yet it is still associated with bohemian lifestyles, just as when it was the favorite drink of avant-gardists like Toulouse-Lautrec and Van Gogh and Baudelaire. And today, when vintage, pre-ban bottles are discovered, they can sell for exorbitant prices to private collectors. But such discoveries are increasingly rare. Which is why the absinthe demimonde of rich collectors was electrified when a mysterious bon vivant claimed to be in possession of a collection of precious, pre-ban bottles. Is his secret tranche of 100-year-old bottles real? And just who is the shadowy person selling them? And what about rumors of another secret cache, hidden away in an Italian palazzo? Journalist Evan Rail sets out to discover the truth about the enigmatic dealer and the secret stashes. Along the way, he drinks with absintheurs frantically chasing down the pre-bans, visits modern distillers who have seen their status rise from criminal bootleggers to sought-after celebrities, and relates the legendary history of absinthe, from its birth in Switzerland through its coming of age in France, and on to its modern revival.

Download or read book Nature of Demons written by Paul R Tucker and published by Cosmotro. This book was released on 2024-10-30 with total page 597 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The disease of kingships and queenships is corrupting the minds of the lords and ladies in the Norophim realm. At the same time, the looming threats of a world war between terrifying dragons, dark elementals, menacing shapeshifters, Grolar beasts, seething demons, and dark angels determined to feed their desire for power are pushing the realm further into darkness. Daniel Of Eagles struggles with his new identity as he attempts to honor his duties as a guardian knight, and the torment of the failed rescue of his mother after she was kidnapped has caused him to wonder whether his bizarre new powers are well-earned gifts or a doomed curse. After losing control on the battlefield, Daniel’s intentions and abilities are in question. Fear consumes everyone around him, leaving him no choice but to seek answers to the source of his powers. He must journey to hellish lands filled with challenges of life, death, and mystical creatures. His only ally is Lady Ariel, a well-respected angel princess, and guardian who is unwavering in helping him through the chaotic turmoil. Still, the mystery remains: which of them is bonded to goodness and the Golonian way, and which is fighting a darkness rising from within? As the Guardian Lords of the Norophim Realm plot and war for control, Daniel and Ariel’s enemies multiply and grow stronger while the fate of humanity lies at stake. All the while, a shapeshifter and her army seek domination, and a demon spawn is unyielding in his plans to release one of the most powerful and harrowing angels who has ever lived...Lucifer... There remains only one question, whose side will you pick, the Gols or the Sods?

Book Synopsis Charter, Customs, and Constitutions of the Cistercians by : Thomas Merton
Download or read book Charter, Customs, and Constitutions of the Cistercians written by Thomas Merton and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2015-06-09 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As master of novices for ten years (1955–1965) at the Cistercian Abbey of Our Lady of Gethsemani in Kentucky, Thomas Merton was responsible for the spiritual formation of young men preparing for monastic profession. In this volume, three related sets of Merton’s conferences on ancient and contemporary documents governing the lives of the monks are published for the first time: • on the Carta Caritatis, or Charter of Charity, the foundational document of the Order of Cîteaux • on the Consuetudines, the twelfth-century collection of customs and regulations of the Order • on the twentieth-century Constitutions of the Order, the basic rules by which Merton and his students actually lived at the time These conferences form an essential part of the overall picture of Cistercian monastic life that Merton provided as part of his project of “initiation into the monastic tradition” that is evident in the broad variety of courses that he put together and taught over the period of his mastership. As Abbot John Eudes Bamberger, ocso, himself a former student of Merton, notes in his preface to this volume, “The texts presented in this present book eventually gave rise to the Cistercian way of spiritual living that continues to contribute to the Church’s witness in this new millennium. This publication is a witness to the process of transformation that ensures the continuity of the Catholic monastic tradition that witnesses to the God who, as Saint Augustine observed is ‘ever old and ever new.’”
