Saint Thomas More: Selected Writings
ISBN: 9780375725722 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Thomas More is perhaps most familiar to us from his courageous struggle with Henry VIII, unforgettably portrayed in Robert Bolt's classic, A Man for All Seasons. But that final struggle, which ended in his execution for treason, was only the crowning act in a life that he had devoted to God long before. In the first selection in decades made for the general reader from his collected works, this volume traces More's journey of moral conviction in his own words and writings. Drawing on a variety of More's late writings-the extraordinary "Tower Works," written in prison, his poignant...

Late Have I Loved Thee: Selected Writings of Saint Augustine on Love
ISBN: 9780375725692 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Late Have I Loved Thee is the first collection of Saint Augustine's varied writings on human and divine love, chosen to reflect his lifelong preoccupation with ordo amoris, the principle of rightly directed love. "My weight is my love," he writes in The Confessions. He sees our ability to love as disordered by sin, so that we often choose badly what and how to love. Only by recognizing that we are commanded to love God first can any other object of our love be properly ordered, Late Have I Loved Thee draws on the riches found in Augustine's sermons, letters,...

The Pilgrim's Progress and Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners
ISBN: 9780375725685 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Now available together in a single volume, these two classics were written by seventeenth-century England's most famous prisoner of conscience, Baptist John Bunyan (1628-1688). Imprisoned for twelve years for his preaching, he wrote first a dramatic allegory of Christian life and followed it with the compelling story of his own conversion. Both have been beloved by generations of spiritual seekers and still speak powerfully to modern readers.

Honey and Salt: Selected Spiritual Writings of Bernard of Clairvaux
ISBN: 9780375725654 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 496 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Bernard of Clairvaux, the twelfth-century monk who wrote that "Jesus is honey in the mouth, melody in the ear, a cry of joy in the heart," was both a mystic and a reformer. His writings reveal a mystical theology that Thomas Merton, a monastic heir to Bernard s Cistercian reform, says "explains what it means to be united to God in Christ but (also) shows the meaning of the whole economy of our redemption in Christ." Critical of the monastic opulence of his times, Bernard exhorted his monks to consider that "Salt with hunger is seasoning enough for a man living soberly and wisely." Martin...
