Book Synopsis The Way of the Heart by : Charles Wright
Download or read book The Way of the Heart written by Charles Wright and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2024-09-15 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Award-winning French author shares the biography and spiritual journey of Cistercian abbot Dom André Louf. Based on a wide variety of interviews, printed sources, and Dom André Louf’s spiritual journal, The Way of the Heart narrates Louf’s spiritual journey from his childhood in Flanders through his becoming a monk in a Cistercian monastery, his ten years of retirement as a hermit in a Benedictine monastery in the south of France, and his death. During his career he struggled with conflicting vocational desires—sometimes wishing to serve as a pastor, academic, abbot, or to immerse himself in eremitic contemplation. That struggle is the leading thread through this biography, which portrays a man whose immense gifts pulled him in many directions, while always endeavoring to submit himself to God’s will.

Book excerpt: Today many have come to find in the Rule of St Benedict an inspiring guide for spiritual development. In this they share the vision of countless monks and nuns who have, for centuries, found in the Rule a timeless wisdom on which to base their daily lives. Michael Casey invites us to join with him in reflecting on St Benedict's teaching on humility (Chapter Seven of the Rule). Readable and fresh, primarily pastoral in its approach, this book presents not popular psychology, but full engagement with the hardest sayings of a great spiritual master. Here is a book for anyone who hungers for the truth that sets a person free. Michael Casey is a monk of Tarrawarra Abbey in Victoria, Australia. He is well known as a retreat master and lecturer on monastic spirituality.
Book Synopsis Saint Benoît et la vie monastique by : Claude Jean-Nesmy
Download or read book Saint Benoît et la vie monastique written by Claude Jean-Nesmy and published by Seuil. This book was released on 2001 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La vie monastique a existé avant saint Benoît. Mais c'est lui qui en inventa réellement la formule communautaire pour l'Occident latin. Né vers 480, dans la province de Nursie, d'une famille de propriétaires terriens, il décida de mener une vie d'ascèse dès l'âge de vingt ans, et se retira dans une grotte à Subiaco, avant de s'établir, en 525, au Mont-Cassin, et d'y fonder le premier monastère "bénédictin". Instruit par l'expérience, connaissant fort bien la tradition antérieure (celle de Pacôme, de Basile, d'Augustin), il rédigea à la fin de sa vie sa propre Règle des moines, la plus célèbre de toutes, la plus équilibrée. Son influence et celle de la tradition bénédictine seront telles qu'on appellera Benoît le " père de l'Europe ". Ce livre retrace avec une exceptionnelle clarté sa vie et son œuvre, dans le contexte de l'époque, ainsi que leur influence religieuse et culturelle en Occident. Cet ouvrage est repris de la célèbre collection " Maîtres spirituels ", avec une bibliographie actualisée.

Book Synopsis Fifteenth-Century Carthusian Reform: The World of Nicholas Kempf by : Dennis D. Martin
Download or read book Fifteenth-Century Carthusian Reform: The World of Nicholas Kempf written by Dennis D. Martin and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-11 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifteenth-Century Carthusian Reform argues that monastic theology offers a medieval Catholic paradigm distinct from the scholastic theology that has been the conventional source for medieval-oriented interpretations of Renaissance and Reformation. It is based on thorough study of the manuscript record. Nicholas Kempf (ca. 1415-1497) taught at the University of Vienna before becoming the head of Carthusian monasteries in rural Austria and Slovenia. Faced with calls for reform in church and society, he placed his confidence in the patristic Christian idea of reform: the reform of the image of God in the human person. This contemplative monastic idea of reform depended on authoritative structures, especially the monastic rule and rational -- yet divinely inspired -- discernment by a spiritual director. What seemed like simpleminded submission to monastic structures was actually a way to avoid relying on human effort for salvation. By returning to one's true self (the image of God), one opened oneself up for genuine social relationships. To activist reformers, whether adherents of medieval scholasticism, Renaissance humanism, or modern Enlightenment, this monastic idea of reform has seemed escapist, backward-looking, and "womanish." Monks accepted these labels but read them as signs of hidden strength. This book attempts to read through monastic lenses.

Book Synopsis Abbots and Abbesses as a Human Resource in the Ninth- to Twelfth-Century West by : Steven Vanderputten
Download or read book Abbots and Abbesses as a Human Resource in the Ninth- to Twelfth-Century West written by Steven Vanderputten and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2018 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides a record of the response, by eight expert scholars in the field of medieval monastic studies, to the question "To what extent did abbots and abbesses contribute as a `human resource' to the development of reformed monastic communities in the ninth- to twelfth-century west?" Covering a broad geographical area, papers consider one or several of three key points of interest: the direct contribution of abbots and abbesses to the shaping of reformed realities; their influence over future modes of leadership; and the way in which later generations of monastics relied upon the memory of a leader's life and achievements to project current realities onto a legitimizing past.

Book Synopsis La formation du droit canonique médiéval by : Jean Gaudemet
Download or read book La formation du droit canonique médiéval written by Jean Gaudemet and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-10-28 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume Professor Gaudemet examines the growth and development of the law of the Church. The Decretum of Gratian and the corpus of conciliar legislation, two of its principal sources, figure prominently. While, in these studies, the author's interest lies principally with the investigation of the origins of canon law, he insists that one should not lose sight of the broader context and points to many areas that would repay further study. Church law, for instance, should not be taken in isolation but seen as a reflection of the needs and values of its time.
