Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no greater authority on the saints than Alban Butler, and his enormous research has been the standard reference on the subject for the last two and a half centuries. This new adaptation of Butler's multi-volume Lives of the Saints presents a modernized text for today's reader and provides an illuminating guide to these historic, symbolic, and foundational Christian men and women. Butler's daily readings from the lives and works of the saints offer readers of all backgrounds the opportunity to engage directly with these great figures. Butler's distinctive contribution to stories about saints was to turn attention away from the superhuman, miraculous themes that are prevalent in earlier works. He gives us saints who are examples of Christian living, who provide inspiration for our own lives, in every time and circumstance. As Butler writes: "They were once what we are now, travelers on earth. They had the same weaknesses we have. We have difficulties; so had the saints." Important features of this version include mention of recently canonized saints as well as those whose path to official sainthood is still in progress. Also included in the daily readings are more obscure saints whose lives and contributions to Christianity should not be forgotten.

Book excerpt: A new edition of the Concise Butler. If the saints and blessed collected here share one overarching characteristic, it is to have put their love of God to work for their fellow men and women through their chosen way of life. Time and again they say and show that faith and hope have to find expression in love for other people, especially for those most despised and neglected by the world. That is the message of those presented here, one needed more than ever today. Drawn from the original twelve volume work known as Butler's Lives of the Saints, this new edition has selected one principal saint as the focus of attention for each day of the calendar year. And now, for the first time, many saints have been included who were canonised during the Pontificate of Pope John Paul II.

Download or read book Butler s Lives of the Saints written by Herbert J. Thurston and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-06-14 with total page 714 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a four volume set. This is volume 2. Volume 1 contains January, February and March Volume 2 contains April, May and June Volume 3 contains July, August and September Volume 4 contains October, November and December. It also contains the main index to the set. I T is now over a quarter of a century since Father Herbert Thurston, S.J., was asked to undertake a drastic revision and bringing up-to-date of Alban Butler's Lives of the Saints. The first, January, volume was published in 1926. Beginning with the second, February, volume (1930), Father Thurston invoked the help of Miss Norah Leeson in the revision or rewriting of many of the lives that appear in Butler and the compilation of others; and Miss Leeson continued to contribute in this way down to the end of the June volume, as is testified by Father Thurston's repeated grateful acknowledgements to her in the pertinent prefaces (notably June, page viii). Beginning with the July volume (1932), the present editor was entrusted with the preparation of practically the whole of the text and the writing of additions thereto, down to the end of the series in 1938. Throughout the whole work Father Thurston himself always wrote the bibliographical and other notes at the end of each .. life." The general principles upon which the work was done are set out in Father Thurston's own words in the introduction which follows. In this edition a uniform order of presentation has been adopted, With a few special exceptions (e.g. March I, June 9, July 9, September 26) the first saint (or feast) dealt with each day is that which is commemorated in the general calendar of the 'Western church, when there is one. The order of the rest is chronological. The choice of day of the month on which a saint should be entered is a far less simple matter. In general I have followed Father Thurston's arrangement (which has involved not a few alterations of date): viz. to adopt in the case of canonized saints the indications of the 1930 (secunda post typicam) edition of the Martyrologium Romanum, and in the case of saints and beati not included in the martyrology, to deal with them, so far as was ascertainable, on the days appointed locally for their liturgical observance. This last rule, however, does not always provide any satisfactory guidance, for the same saint may be commemorated in half a dozen different dioceses on half a dozen different days. But for those who belong to religious orders a feast-day is usually assigned in the order itself, and this I have done my best to adhere to. 'Vhen for one reason or another (e, g. a very recently beatified subject) I have been unable to ascertain the feast-day, that person is entered under the day of his death. \"hile this work was in progress, the Friars Minor adopted a new calendar, too late for me to make more than some of the consequent changes of date. In the title of each entry the saint is generally described according to the categories of 'Western liturgical usage, except that the description " confessor" is omitted throughout: any male saint not a martyr is a confessor. Occasionally the description does not agree with the office at present in use: e, g. on July 29, Felix" II " is referred to as ." pope and martyr" by the Roman Martyrology and as "martyr" in the collects of the Missal and Breviary; but he was neither a true pope nor a martyr.
