Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
The Classics of Western Spirituality series has itself become the acknowledged 'classic' in English for the study of Western spirituality.' Jorge Floria BRULLE AND THE FRENCH SCHOOLSELECTED WRITINGS edited with an introduction by William M. Thompson translation by Lowell M. Glendon, S.S. preface by Susan A. Muto 'This new opinion, which has little following in the science of the stars, is useful and should be followed in the science of salvation. For Jesus is the sun which is immovable in his greatness and which moves all other things. Jesus is like his Father. Seated at his right hand, he is immovable like him and moves all things. Jesus is the true center of the world and the world should be in continuous movement towards him. Jesus is the Sun of our souls and from him we receive every grace, every light, and every effect of his power.' Pierre de Brulle (15751629) The seventeenth century was the period of transition between the Renaissance and the Enlightenment. It witnessed the rise of the great European powers, the beginnings of modern science and the myriad inventions that changed ageold ways of life. It saw Copernicus and Newton, Harvey and Galileo, Bacon and Descartes. During its course, the New World was settled and the Old reshaped. Seventeenthcentury France saw the application of the new spirit of exploration and analysis to matters of the soul. Pierre de Brulle, John Eudes, JeanJacques Olier and Mother Madeleine de SaintJoseph left an indelible mark on the history of Christian spirituality in the West. Much of our current understanding of 'spirituality' had its beginnings with these authors. In his penetrating and probing introduction, Professor William M. Thompson presents the French school as a creative response to the challenge of the modern age that dawned with the seventeenth century. He shows how these authors created a 'science of the saints' that blended metaphysical speculations with flights of mystical love. Their fascination with the intersection between human and divine experience unlocked for them the true meaning of humanity and focused their attention on the mystery of the Incarnation as a sublime mystery of adoration and service. This volume is a comprehensive introduction to the spirituality of seventeenthcentury France, containing, among others, selections from Brulle's Discourse on the State and Grandeurs of Jesus, Madeleine de SaintJoseph's Spiritual Letters, JeanJacques Olier's Introduction to the Christian Life and Virtues, and John Eudes's The Life and Kingdom of Jesus in Christian Souls.
