Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Saint Dominic The historian should beware of exaggerations of this kind. Without denying the marvellous or the miraculous, it is his duty to weigh evidence, and even though it should be necessary to set aside poetic and attractive legends, to accept that only which appears to him authentic. Nor will he look upon the subject of his history in the light of a client whom he is bound to justify in every particular, even at the cost of truth. The saints themselves may have been mistaken, and to however great a degree divine grace may have abounded in them, it was no infallible preservative from all error or from every fault. Had St Dominic committed acts of cruelty we should feel no difficulty in acknowledging the fact; but, placing the saint in his own age and environment, and taking above all the character of his opponents into consideration, he appears to have been a defender, wise and temperate, not only Of faith and morals, but also of civilisation, threatened as it was by the subversive doctrines of the Albigenses.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from In St. Dominic's Country If we would understand why the Middle Ages - which were in the full sense of the term the Ages of Faith - saw the rise and rapid spread of many strange and dangerous heresies, we must look back to the times which immediately followed upon the inrushing of the barbarian peoples of the North. The countless bands of missionaries sent forth by Rome at intervals to bear the good tidings of salvation to these half-savage hordes to soften their hard hearts, and to teach them to harden their hands by a labour which was sanctified by prayer - the missionaries soon saw the proud heads of these untamed children of the mountain and forest bow meekly at the baptismal font to receive the waters of regeneration. However, if the young nations of Europe put on the yoke of Christ right gladly, they rebelled at intervals against its constant chafing upon the shoulders which had known no other burden than battleaxe and spear. Again and again the loud call to the cruel sports of their former life, to war and barbarous massacre, rang in the ears of these new converts who had but now been listening to the words of peace, to the hard sayings of Christian asceticism. Against their own consciences and the words of Christs heralds they fared forth to battle - and how could men whose passion for slaying was aroused curb the other passions of their hearts? Of old the Inspired Word was written: "Charity covereth a multitude of sins." The penitent warrior who came trembling to the Church, to be shriven from his sins, was bidden to put aside for Gods poor some of the spoil he had taken.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Saint Dominic and the Order of Preachers Any sketch of the mission, organization and his tory of the Dominican Order which did not contain an adequate study of its holy founder would be much like the play of Hamlet with the Dane left out. For it is from its founder that every order gets its own genuine and authentic spirit, temper, fibre, character, individuality, ethos - or whatever other name may be chosen to designate the marks that distinguish and set off, apart and alone, one re ligious institute from every other. If, then, no two orders are alike in spirit and organization, it is for the very simple reason that no two individuals are quite the same in temperament and ideals.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of St. Dominic: A Sketch of the Dominican Order, With an Introduction St. Dominic's name is revered by many who never perused his life, and it is likewise execrated by others who gain their notions of him from false biographies, (if they may be so called.) The fragrance of his sanctity fills the entire garden of the Church, and all within its holy precincts acknowledge his virtues, even without pausing to learn the peculiar causes of his distinction, while those without hear nothing but the foul reports of such as never saw him, never held any kind of communication with his associates, but who derived all their knowledge of St. Dominic from those who wrongly judged him. England was not the last in joining in this hasty verdict, elicited from incompetent testimony; nor is she the last in re-opening the case, setting aside all unqualified evidence, - nay, in arraigning before the majesty of reason and of truth the faithful contemporary eye-witnesses of the Saint, and in giving to the world, as the result of most careful and impartial scrutiny, the true life of St. Dominic, of which this is a mere republication.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Historical Sketch of the Order of St. Dominic: Or, a Memorial to the French People In presenting to American readers one of the most eloquent and elegant treatises in any language, a word of explanation may be necessary. Its author, Henry Dominic Lacoedaire, was born on the 12th of May, 1802, and died in November, 1861. Few men in modern times exercised so great an influence over their contemporaries. His career in early life seems providentially to have fitted him for the great work he was to achieve. Born when the old faith of eighteen centuries had just begun to recover from the rudest shock, perhaps, that had ever tried its strength, he breathed in early youth the poisoned atmosphere of atheism and error. He did not escape the virulent effects of the unhealthy moral influences by which he was surrounded. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of St. Dominic: Founder of the Friars Preachers In saying this, however, we are far from intending to represent the Saint as an advocate of religious toleration, a modern doctrine Of which, as now understood, no trace is to be found in any religious body before the Edict Of Nantes, and which in our own country received but partial application up to the date of Catholic Emanci pation. To look for it in the thirteenth century would be an anachronism as great as to look, during the same period, for Parliamentary Government.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Dominican Province: 1221-1921 For seven hundred years the children of St. Dominic, at their Father's command and helped by his prayers, have sought to meet the needs and answer the call of each succeeding age. The present book seeks to show how they tried in the past to do their duty. Seven hundred years have passed since the first English Dominicans came to their native land to plant the Dominican tree. With many great successes and many great failures, with many great joys yet many deep and terrible trials and sorrows, their work through the centuries has gone on, and it is a great subject of rejoicing to see them to-day still at work in the land that gave them birth. To pursue the simile of the tree (for the tree that St. Dominic planted is still growing in Rome in the garden of St. Sabina) we can always expect and indeed look for many branches to wither and to die. Each year the tree puts off its leaves and each year fresh ones come up. Though the new leaves know little of the ones that went before, save to see them lying dead at the foot of the tree, it is the hidden sap unseen by both that gives life to each and clothes them all with glory year by year - how foolish if the leaves were to boast and to take the glory to themselves So when read ing these pages, if the children of St. Dominic take the glory of the tree's appearance unto themselves and boast, they will do a very foolish thing. The present book is not brought before the public eye in a boasting spirit, but in order that those who read may praise the Providence of God, who through His weak and sinful creatures has, by His life-giving grace, done such great things.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Dominican Artist: A Sketch of the Life of the Rev. Père Besson of the Order of St. Dominic God saw every thing that He had made, and behold it was very good 3 and from that time the wondrous gift of a creative power has been bestowed upon men; a power so exquisite, so precious, so mighty for good to him who possesses it, and to all who come under its spell, that it may indeed be called akin to grace. That among men too often noblest things find vilest using, is a sorrowful truth, and heavy is his guilt who turns the heaven-sent gifts of genius to aught save God's glory, and the good of men. But art, true creative power, as it is part of that noble heritage bestowed on man when the ever-blessed Trinity vouchsafed to make him in Our Image, after Our Likeness, - so it is one of the noblest offerings of praise and adoration which the creature can offer to his Creator, - a lavish outpouring of all the gold, myrrh, and frankincense of his mind's treasures; every line, every tint, every beautiful outward expres sion of the inward conception of loveliness, offered up as a mighty hymn of thanksgiving, a great Sursum corda;-in heathen art, it may be to a great unknown God; - in Christian art to Him Who is the fount and source of all beauty, and to Whose worship all in beauty turns again, as waters flow onwards to the sea. Akin to grace, art seems most certainly to have been in the case of the young artist whose short career and early death (he was called to his happy rest when only forty-five) are lovingly narrated by the artist-friend who was as a brother to him, and a son to his mother - M. E. Cartier, -whose writings have done so much to set Christian art in its highest form before the nineteenth century.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lives of the Most Eminent Painters, Sculptors Architects of the Order of St. Dominic, Vol. 1 of 2 This fact is so undeniable, that the enemies of the Mo nastic Institutions dare not gainsay it. The influences of monasticism are operating too sensibly and too bene ficially on society, to allow any one to doubt for a moment of their existence. Men and women of every grade, tired of vain pursuits, and sick of a world which has no anodyne for the soul's tribulations, yearn for that repose which cannot be found outside the Cloister, and for the universal revival of thatpblessed economy which provided an asylum for the repentant land contemplative, III times when sins and excesses were far less heinous and numerous, than they are in ours.
