Download or read book Benedictine Monachism Second Edition written by Cuthbert Butler and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2005-10-07 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: St. Benedict's Rule has been one of the great facts in the history of western Europe, and its influence and effects are with us to this day. This being so, it is surely strange that, as I believe, the Rule has never yet been made the object of an historical study setting forth on an extended scale its principles and its working. Commentaries there are, explaining it chapter by chapter; but so far as I know, there is no systematic exposition of what may be called the philosophy, the theory, of the Benedictine rule and life, no explanation of the Benedictine spirit and tradition in regard either to its inner life or its outward manifestations. The present volume is an effort to supply this want. It consists of a connected series of essays covering the most important aspects of Benedictine life and activities. It is addressed, of course, primarily to Benedictines; but it should appeal to wider circles--to students of the history of religion and civilisation in western Europe, as an account of one of the most potent factors in the formation of our modern Europe during a long and important phase of its growth: and also, in a special way, to those scholars and students who hold the Benedictine name in veneration. --from the Preface

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Benedictine Monachism: Studies in Benedictine Life and Rule Viollet-Le-Duc has said: 'Regarded merely from the philosophical point of view, the Rule of St Benedict is perhaps the greatest historical fact of the Middle Ages.' Great authority though he was on the Middle Ages, there may be some demur in accepting this verdict. But certainly there will be no demur in recognising that St Benedict's Rule has been one of the great facts in the history of western Europe, and that its influence and effects are with us to this day. This being so, it is surely strange that, as I believe, the Rule has never yet been made the object of an historical study setting forth on an extended scale its principles and its working. Commentaries there are, explaining it chapter by chapter; but so far as I know, there is no systematic exposition of what may be called the philosophy, the theory, of the Benedictine rule and life, no explanation of the Benedictine spirit and tradition in regard either to its inner life or its outward manifestations.

Download or read book Pre benedictine Monasticism written by Thomas Merton and published by Cistercian Publications Books. This book was released on 2006 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Merton's two series of Pre-Benedictine Monasticism conferences form both a supplement and a sequel to Cassian and the Fathers, the first volume of Merton's conferences for novices to be published in the Monastic Wisdom series. Part One not only includes fresh insights on such leaders of early monasticism as Anthony, Pachomius, Basil, and Cassian, but also considers long overlooked key figures like Martin of Tours, Shenoute of Atripe, Melania the Younger, and the pilgrim nun Egeria. In Part Two, Merton, writing at a time when little attention was generally given to these significant but neglected sources, extends his investigations of early monastic life to the Syriac tradition. These conferences, or lectures, edited from Merton's own typescripts, make available his keen observations on the earliest phases of Christian monasticism, and also provide important background material for a number of his essays, among them "From Pilgrimage to Crusade" and "Rain and the Rhinoceros".
Download or read book Monk Habits for Everyday People written by Dennis L. Okholm and published by Brazos Press. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In their zeal for reform, early Protestant leaders tended to throw out Saint Benedict with the holy water. That is a mistake, writes Dennis Okholm, in Monk Habits for Everyday People. While on retreat in a Benedictine abbey, the author, a professor who was raised as a Pentecostal and a Baptist, observed how the meditative and ordered life of a monk lifted Jesus' teachings off the printed page and put them into daily practice. Vital aspects of devotion, humility, obedience, hospitality, and evangelism took on new clarity and meaning. Paralleling that experience, Okholm guides the reader on a focused and instructive journey that can revitalize the devotional life of any Christian who wants to slow down and dig deeper.
