Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of St. Leonard of Port-Maurice: O. F. M. (1676-1751) Consequently, in the following pages I have endeavoured to make a fair division and give equal prominence to the two sides of the Saint's life, so admirably summarized by him in his letter to Brother Stephen (p. The initial difficulty, however, still remains, and I must endeavour to justify myself 1n presenting what to many must always seem an impossible ideal. Now, no one Would dream for a moment of advocating anywhere to-day the construction of a religious house on the lines of Incontro - it was peculiar to country, time, and people, a monument to admire, but not to imitate. But what of the spirit animating these heroic missionaries who - for brief spaces of life - were bent on being solitaries? Is there, perchance, no connection between their wonderful success as preachers and this, to us unseemly, hankering after a mountain top. Is there not something in their outlook on the world we may do more than admire? Indeed, they stand before us as the embodiment of a great spiritual truth, which they laid hold of m act as Well as mind, but which we may well ponder over and clutch at from afar, be it ever so slightly. Were I propounding some theory of my own on the foundations of the apostolic life, I might well be asked for credentials, but I am leaving the Saints to speak.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The erection of the Stations of the Cross in the Coliseum in December, 1750, was really Leonard's last great work at Rome. In April, 175 I, he prepared to go north to give a mission at Lucca. On the 14th of the month, the day before he was to leave, he went to see the Pope, to say good-bye and get his blessing. Benedict XIV, who, as we have said, thought a great deal of Leonard and valued highly his work, ordered him to travel in future in a carriage and no more on foot, and told him, moreover, that he would look for his return to Rome in November.” Speaking of the Coliseum in Rome in a sermon delivered there, Saint Leonard of Port Maurice said: “Nay, more, I hope that, thanks to the interest of Our Holy Father the Pope, who, in his great piety, has himself had these Stations set up, we shall see this amphitheatre, of old one of the wonders of the world, becoming in our own day one of Rome's greatest sanctuaries.” His whole sermon is reproduced as an appendix to this biography. “Till he was thirteen years old Paul Jerome Casanova remained at Port-Maurice. He was of the number of those who, like St. Bernard, seem from their earliest childhood to have been gifted with an extraordinary appreciation of divine things. The house of God was where he felt most at home; a pilgrimage to some outlying church of Our Lady was for him a relaxation and recreation more appreciated than games.” Of his sermons we read: “Whilst at Civita-Vecchia, Leonard wrote thus to Brother Stephen at Rome: Yesterday I preached in the jail: not many there, but the first sermon seems to have touched them, and all went to confession. ... We went afterwards to visit an English captain, who wanted to see me, on his vessel. We found three or four of them who had assisted at the sermons and seemed disposed to abandon their heresy. Poor fellows, they had been more moved by what they had seen than w hat they had heard, for they hardly understand the language at all, which only shows that grace is the prime mover in stirring the heart. . .. On the whole the harvest promises well. To-morrow we begin the course for the galley-slaves.” Indeed it is often the conformity to God's will more than the words of the preacher that move people to repentance. Saint Leonard comments on his observance of the Franciscan vow of poverty: “I shall have nothing for my own particular use (he writes), except the crucifix I wear on my breast, my little hand-bag, the case with my sermons in, my writings, my Breviary, my Rule, my hair-shirt, my little cross with sharp points, my spectacles, my rosary, the two disciplines, the one I use at the community exercise and the one I use at my secret penances at night, a little holy picture of the Immaculate Conception, the framed picture of St. Vincent Ferrer, with which I bless the sick: this is all I shall keep for my own particular use.”Saint Leonard is known for his book on the Mass, The Hidden Treasure, as well as for a sermon preached on the fewness of the elect. Let us read about the rule of solitude he lived for a time: “The purpose of the Solitude being tofacilitate contemplation and the life of union with Almighty God, nine hours of the day were allotted to spiritual exercises, including mental prayer and the Divine Office. Such is the general rule, but so great is the fervour of the solitaries that whatever time remains free is consecrated to God. Some prolong their meditation or devote themselves to spiritual reading; others withdraw to secluded parts of the garden, the more freely to give expression before God to the fervent aspirations of their hearts; so that for all, this sanctuary is as a paradise upon earth. Their food consists of salads, vegetables, and fruit. Meat, fish, eggs, and milk in any form are. forbidden them, except on the feasts of Christmas, Easter, Pentecost, and St. Francis, when eggs and milk are allowed. ...”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: St. Leonard was born in 1676 at Port Maurice, near Genoa. He went to Rome to study, and there took on the Franciscan habit at the friary of St. Bonaventure. St. Leonard was zealous for souls, and wanted to be a missionary to foreign lands; instead he was called by God to give missions to the Christians of his own country. For twenty-four years, amid great hardships and dangers, he preached missions in every corner of Italy. The power of his words, which flowed from his strict life converted countless sinners. He also built retreat houses for his order, and founded pious confraternities in Rome to spread the devotion to the Sacred Heart and perpetual adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. "My Jesus, mercy!" was the prayer always upon his lips. In this book, you will learn: -The holy life of St. Leonard; -His zeal for souls on his missionary journeys; -His great love for the Blessed Virgin Mary; -His incredible miracles during and after his life. "St. Leonard was the great missionary of the 18th century." -St. Alphonsus Liguori
Book Synopsis The Nature and Mission of Theology by : Joseph Ratzinger
Download or read book The Nature and Mission of Theology written by Joseph Ratzinger and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2011-01-06 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Cardinal, Joseph Ratzinger wrote this book in response to the dialogue going on today concerning theology and the clarification of its methods, its mission and its limits which he thinks has become urgent. Ratzinger states: "To do theology-as the Magisterium understands theology-it is not sufficient merely to calculate how much religion can reasonably be expected of man and to utilize bits and pieces of the Christian tradition accordingly. Theology is born when the arbitrary judgment of reason encounters a limit, in that we discover something which we have not excogitated ourselves but which has been revealed to us. For this reason, not every religious theory has the right to label itself as Christian or Catholic theology simply because it wishes to do so; whoever would lay claim to this title is obligated to accept as meaningful the prior given which goes along with it.

Book excerpt: I wrote Verbum Domini because I would like the work of the synod to have a real effect on the life of the Church: on our personal relationship with the sacred Scriptures, on their interpreptation in the liturgy and catechesis, and in scientific research so that the Bible may not be simply a word from the past, but a living and timely word. This papal document perhaps is the most comprehensive official synthesis ever on the subject of the Scripture and divine revelation. It is masterfully written and presented with a depth which only a skilled theologian and seasoned teacher and pastor could achieve.

Download or read book The Culture of Print written by Roger Chartier and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The leading historians who are the authors of this work offer a highly original account of one of the most important transformations in Western culture: the change brought about by the discovery and development of printing in Europe. Focusing primarily on printed matter other than books, The Culture of Print emphasizes the specific and local contexts in which printed materials, such as broadsheets, flysheets, and posters, were used in modern Europe. The authors show that festive, ritual, cultic, civic, and pedagogic uses of print were social activities that involved deciphering texts in a collective way, with those who knew how to read leading those who did not. Only gradually did these collective forms of appropriation give way to a practice of reading--privately, silently, using the eyes alone--that has become common today. This wide-ranging work opens up new historical and methodological perspectives and will become a focal point of debate for historians and sociologists interested in the cultural transformations that accompanied the rise of modern societies. Originally published in 1989. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
