Описание:
Excerpted in Image Magazine - No. 90 This collection of poems explores the saints of the church's history and contemporary persons who embody something of their charism. Three sections are arranged around the themes of the three -theological virtues- faith, portrayed as a source of strength in times of trial; hope, the darkest in the book, dealing with matters of the body's frailty, illness, social discrimination, and the search for a way to live within the constraints of society; and love, offering a panoply of outward-looking characters who give to others in radical or personal ways. The volume ends with a cycle of Franciscan poems that offer a model for the Christian life, not simply in terms of individual moments but also as a complete life-cycle of practice and prayer. Communion of Saints represents an unlikely achievement: deeply spiritual and delicate poems that speak directly to our modern moment. --Yehoshua November, author of God's Optimism

Описание: Roderick MacLean / Ruairidh MacEachainn MhicIllEathan (d. 1553) was commendator of the Abbey of Iona, Bishop of the Isles, and member of an extended kindred who had close connections to Iona and its abbey.Roderick MacLean / Ruairidh MacEachainn MhicIllEathan (d. 1553) was commendator of the Abbey of Iona, Bishop of the Isles, and member of an extended kindred who had close connections to Iona and its abbey. After studying on the continent he held a series of ecclesiastical posts in Scotland and spent multiple sojourns on church business in Rome. During his time there in 1549 he saw through the press his Ionis Liber, or Book of the Song of Iona, a paraphrase in neo-classical Latin verse of selected chapters from Adomnan's Life of Columba. Only three copies of this rare Pre-Reformation text survive, one in Aberdeen and two in Perugia, so that Macquarrie and Green's edition makes it accessible to a wider readership for the first time. As well as an edition of the Latin text, they provide an English prose translation, editions and translations of other smaller works by MacLean, extensive commentary, appendices of material in the Vatican Archives relevant to MacLean's career, an extensive bibliography and index. This will be essential reading for any students or scholars interested in Neo-Latin, Gaelic culture, and the Scottish Reformation.

Описание: A lifetime of Love for a father, one last promise fulfilled. How The Horse Ate The Apple is the first childrens book based on the poems written for Charles Blounts father, Southern Lawyer, Jerry Holmes Blount. Once asked how he came out in court on a case Jerry told Charles "I taught him how the horse ate the apple!". Always amused by his fathers Southern Sayings Charles wrote a two page poem depicting how an older horse bested younger horses with his life learned wisdom. "The trails spiraled left and right and around, down several deep dips as the youngest wore down". A life lesson any child should learn. Adults may not be the fastest or strongest but they sure can be the wisest! Charles promised his father he would make the poems he made for him into childrens books two weeks before he passed away. A way to share his father with the world. Be on the lookout for the next Southern lesson based on Jerry Blounts southern saying "Come The Revolution".

Описание: It cannot be said that poetry, in a literary sense, truly prospered in Christian surroundings. However, the greatest of the Latin Christian poets was Aurelius Prudentius, who was born in any one of the three cities: Tarragona, Saragossa, and Calahorra. Prudentius has a technical skill surpassing that of the other Christian Latin poets.

Описание: Alice Christiana Gertrude Meynell (nee Thompson, 1847-1922) was a British writer, editor, critic, and suffragist, now best remembered as a poet. She was born in Barnes, London, but was brought up mainly in Italy and, whilst recuperating from one of her frequent illnesses, converted to the Catholic faith. Her first volume of poetry, Preludes, was published in 1875, illustrated by her sister Elizabeth (the artist Lady ELizabeth Butler 1846-1933), and whilst it received little public notice was warmly priased by Ruskin. In 1877 Alice married Wilfrid Meynell, a Catholic newspaper editor who had admired her poems on religious subjects. The couple settled in Kensington, became proprietors of magazines including The Pen and the Weekly Register, and went on to have eight children. Alice was one of the early founders of the Catholic women's organization, Catholic Women's Suffrage Society, in support of peaceful means for the achievement of equal suffrage rights for women, and she established and wrote for its newpaper The Catholic Suffragist. She was also vice-president of the Women Writers' Suffrage League. She was a regular contributor to numerous journals such as The Spectator, the Pall Mall Gazette and The Saturday Review, edited many volumes of poetry and published further volumes of her own poems, being twice considered for the role of Poet Laureate. Her later poems show her feminist concerns as well as her reactions to the events of the First World War. This complete collection of Alice Meynell's poems is reprinted from the McClelland and Stewart Canadian edition of 1923 and includes a portrait of the author reproduced from a drawing by John Singer Sargent.

Описание:
Drawing from the poetry of generations of esteemed writers Gary Bouchard shows how poems often express the longings of the human heart as a kind of prayer. Emily Dickinson, Rev. Rowan Williams, Pope John Paul II, Christina Rossetti, Robert Frost, and Fr. Kilian McDonnell, OSB, among others, offer readers an inspiring path to reflect upon and pray with poetic verse. Arranged under six engaging themes, each selection uses the words of poets as vehicles to prompt "heaven in ordinary" or to praise like "exalted manna"; to find the right "paraphrase" for your own soul or maybe sense your "soul's blood"; to muster up from your grief or anger "reversed thunder" or dare to articulate from your own personal anguish "Christ-side-piercing spear."

Описание: Collected here in this omnibus edition are all three of St. John of the Cross' major works as well as twenty of his magnificent poems. The Ascent of Mount Carmel is the third major work of St. John of the Cross and is considered to be the introductory work on mystical theology. Dark Night of the Soul is one of the greatest religious poems ever written. This masterpiece of Mystic Christianity examines faith and how to keep faith when all seems lost. Think of it as guide to making it through the dark night of the soul to the brighter, happier, faith filled tomorrow that awaits. In A Spiritual Canticle of the Soul and the Bridegroom Christ, St. John states: "I do not purpose here to set forth all that greatness and fullness the spirit of love, which is fruitful, embodies in it. Yes, rather it would be foolishness to think that the language of love and the mystical intelligence - and that is what these stanzas are - can be at all explained in words of any kind, for the Spirit of our Lord who helps our weakness."
