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."

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: This book is a man's journey through courtship, marriage, kids, rejection, divorce, and the joy/pain throughout a 19 year relationship expressed in poetic form. What began as a compilation of love poems for an anniversary became the catalyst for a poetic autobiography of sorts which sums the authors love and pain for the one woman he loved and lost. The book also pays tribute to the authors mother (in photographic form), who has since passed away, but was present shortly after the birth of the authors children.

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: Bemused by the quirks of life, nature, chance, and art, Brooks avoids the formulaic, but rather entices rhythm, rhyme, and form organically out of his material. These poems were written in the evening, after dark. They can be read any time of day. These poems were written over a span of twenty years, though most are recent. The themes include love, death, nature, music, and time (isnt all art about the tragedy of time?). Brooks has been a professional violinist his entire life. He grew up in Brooklyn in a house filled with books, has lived in Vermont, Spain, and the Netherlands, and has finally settled in the city of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, where all of these poems were written.

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.
