All of these have been considered, at different times, meat or meatless foods by the Catholic Church. The eighteenth century historian Le Grand d'Aussy included several long passages on the complex history of Catholic fasting in France in his master work on the history of French food. Taken together, they explore the often surprising twists and turns this practice took from the time of the Franks to his own. Throughout the Old Regime, the distinction between meat and fast-day foods was central to French dining; the exact definitions, however, of what...

Victories of the Martyrs: Or The Lives of the Most Celebrated Martyrs of the Church
ISBN: 9781499282610 / Angielski / Miękka / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. ST. ALPHONSUS was in his eightieth year when he wrote the VICTORIES OF THE MARTYRS, which appeared in the year 1776. He had just been relieved by Pope Pius VI of the burden of the episcopate, which weighed so heavily upon him, but not of the burden of his Congregation, which furnished him with a retreat that was most laborious. Moreover, he had to compose this work in the midst of the greatest sufferings, says Father Tannoia. The kingdom of Naples, he adds, received this new fruit of the zeal of our saint with general satisfaction; and in the opinion of Canon Fabius Massa, the Church was to...

Chesterton wrote for the London Daily News in the years before World War I. Covering a variety of themes, each is written with the same high quality that readers have come to expect of Chesterton. In an essay on canvassing, Chesterton ponders some unusual double standards. In another, he writes about daily annoyances. Another covers literature. But regardless of the topic, each of the essays in "All Things Considered" is the usual Chesterton masterpiece, tempting the reader to track down even more of the 4,000 newspaper...

It is one in which all have a part: it is the heritage of all Catholics. We may say, indeed, that it has a lay origin, for the Divine Office owes its beginning in the Christian Church to the assembling of the people together, and especially the religious of both sexes. We must bear in mind that the early monks were laymen, and in the time of St. Benedict the priest-monk was the exception, not the rule. The Divine Office has nothing especially clerical in its structure, as it is said daily by nuns without...

Bethlehem
ISBN: 9781499296341 / Angielski / Miękka / 512 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This Book not only represents a past in which you are as much mixed up as with that other past six years ago, but, by God's appointment, it calls up associations, which, if they are less joyous, are on that very account more tender. That Will of God, which has laid you aside and given you, apparently for life, only pain and endurance for your portion in the work of His vineyard, has disappointed many hopes and frustrated many schemes, which were more dear to us than strangers can ever understand. Yet I trust that neither of us have, even so much as in thought, rebelled against it. The various...

Catechism of the "Summa Theologica" of Saint Thomas Aquinas: For the Use of the Faithful
ISBN: 9781499297614 / Angielski / Miękka / 330 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. THE author of the original work asked me personally to translate his book into English. I have done so; but the genius of the English language did not permit a literal translation. The present book is therefore in some sense rather an adaptation than a literal translation, although the latter has been strictly adhered to wherever possible. In the original work the answer always repeats the whole question word for word; in the cause of brevity and sometimes for clearness' sake, I have adopted the simple answer of "yes" or " no " lest the reader tire with the insistency of the ceaseless...

The poems are arranged in the order of the events of the Blessed Virgin's life, beginning with that earliest mystery made known to us by the Gospels, the Annunciation; hilt a chronological list of the poets is prefixed to the series, Our Lady, the Queen of whom the poets sing, is herself a poet; but her canticle of canticles hns properly no place among these poems in her praise, for when she is exalted she but magnifies the Lord. Fifty poets, in as many and about hair as many more or their sweetest utterances, give her here occasion to do so.

We are expecting now a visit from our great Leader, Christ, who is coming to treat of what should concern us most, namely, our salvation. Let us see what kind of house we prepare for him.

H'ence what was formerly the duty and privilege of the clergy becomes now the universal task of all educated Catholic laymen. Every reflecting Catholic must render to himself an account of the...
