Описание: The sixteenth century was a period of crisis in the Catholic Church. Monastic reorganization was a major issue, and women were at the forefront of charting new directions in convent policy. The story of the Carmelite Reform has been told before, but never from the perspective of the women on the front lines. Nearly all accounts of the movement focus on Teresa de Avila, (1515-1582), and end with her death in 1582. Women Religious and Epistolary Exchange in the Carmelite Reform: The Disciples of Teresa de Avila carries the story beyond Teresa’s death, showing how the next generation of Carmelite nuns struggled into the seventeenth century to continue her mission. It is unique in that it draws primarily from female-authored sources, in particular, the letters of three of Teresa’s most dynamic disciples: Maria de San Jose, Ana de Jesus and Ana de San Bartolome.

Описание: The Discalced Carmelte saints have volumes to teach us about prayer and the contemplative life. A Secular member of the Order walks us through their stories and finds a path for herself as well. St. Teresa and St. Therese are here and 50 other men and women from the liturgical calendar, beckoning all to climb higher toward the God who loves us.
This book of spiritual meditations was written by a senior Carmelite in the early 20th century. The discussions upon spiritual topics of God, sin and the virtuous imitation of Jesus are eloquent and thought-provoking.
Being known for their intense devotion and insight into matters of faith, the Carmelites have contributed much. Famous for their visions and commitment to the devout life, the Carmelites command respect as a Catholic order filled with purpose and will to worship the Lord. The author of this work, whose name remains anonymous, headed a Carmelite convent and received the greatest instruction upon matters of faith - a finer commentator could scarcely be desired.
Divided into ten days each consisting of multiple meditations, this superb work covers topics such as the birth and life of Jesus of Nazareth, and the meaning of His deeds on Earth. Various pivotal points in the life of Christ are discussed, in particular his teachings and connections with the twelve apostles. The agonizing end of His life upon the crucifix, and His subsequent resurrection, are given a lucid commentary by the author. We are also treated to serene advice on topics of sin and prayer, and of leading a Christ-imitating life of virtue and goodliness.

In this book, Fr. Peter Slattery gives a refreshing account of the Carmelite spiritual tradition and the important people who have shaped its history, including Elijah, Mary, Teresa of Avila, John of the Cross, Th r se of Lisieux, Titus Brandsma, and Edith Stein. The Carmelite spirituality that emerges is not something relevant to the Middle Ages or the 16th century. With its emphasis on love and freedom it is an extremely pertinent gift for today's world. This book will be welcomed both by newcomers to the Carmelite spiritual tradition and those who have had actual experience of it. This is an updated 2nd edition.

Описание: This volume presents all the essential themes of Carmelite spirituality, as exemplified in Carmelite classics such as The Way of Perfection of St. Teresa of Avila, The Ascent of Mount Carmel of St. John of the Cross, The Story of a Soul of St. Therese of Lisieux, and The Practice of the Presence of God of Brother Lawrence. Also included are shorter portions of lesser known writings by more recent Carmelites: St. Elizabeth of the Trinity, St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross (Edith Stein), and Sr. Miriam of the Holy Spirit (Jessica Powers).
Down to the Reformation the Little Office of Our Lady formed a large part of the "Primer or Lay-folk's Prayer-book," and was customarily recited by the devout laity, by whom the practice was continued for long afterwards among the persecuted Catholics. Today it is recited daily by Dominican, Carmelite, Augustinian, and by large numbers of the Franciscan, Tertiaries, as well as by many pious laymen who desire to take part in the liturgical prayer of the Church. It is worth noting that the form of the Little Office of Our Lady has varied considerably at different periods and in different places. The earlier versions varied very considerably, chiefly as regards the hymns and antiphons used: in England in medieval times the main differences seem to have been between the Sarum and York Uses. Since the time of St. Pius V, that most commonly recited has been the version of the reformed Breviary of that pope. In this version, which suffers somewhat from the classicism of the sixteenth century, are to be found the seven "Hours," as in the Greater Office. At Matins, after the versicles follow the invitatory "Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum" with the "Venite" then the hymn "Quem terra, pontus, sidera"; then three groups of psalms, each with their antiphons, of which one group is said on Sundays, Mondays, and Thursdays, the second on Tuesdays and Fridays, the third on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Next follow three lessons with responsories and (except in Lent and Advent) the "Te Deum." At Lauds, there are the eight psalms of the Divine Office for Sundays, sung to five antiphons. Then the Little Chapter, and the hymn "O Gloriosa Virginum." Next a versicle and the canticle "Benedictus" with its antiphon. Lastly, the prayer and commemoration of the saints. In each of the four Little Hours the hymn "Memento rerum conditor" immediately follows the versicles; then three psalms are recited, under one of the antiphons of Lauds; then are said the Little Chapter, versicles, and a prayer. At Vespers, after the versicles and five psalms with their antiphons, follow the Little Chapter, the hymn "Ave Maris stella," a short versicle, and the canticle "Magnificat" with its antiphon; then the prayers as at Lauds. Compline begins with special versicles, then follow three psalms without antiphons, then the hymn "Memento rerum conditor," a Little Chapter, a versicle, the canticle "Nunc Dimittis," versicles, a prayer, and the Benediction. After the hours are recited the "Pater Noster" and the proper antiphon of Our Lady for the season. This last, the antiphons of the psalms and canticles and the Little Chapters are the only parts of the office that vary with the seasons. Pope Leo XIII granted (17 Nov., 1887), to those who recite the whole Office of Our Lady, an indulgence daily of seven years and seven quarantines, and a plenary indulgence once a month; to those who recite Matins and Lauds only, a daily indulgence of three hundred days; and (8 Dec., 1897) to those who recite Vespers and Compline only, and for each Hour, an indulgence of fifty days.
