Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twelve Years in a Monastery Monasticism, inseparable as it is from every great religious system, seems to emanate spontaneously from the fundamental religious idea. China, India, and Europe, despite their marked divergence in conceiving the ultimate objects of religious belief, and the distinct racial and territorial influences that have affected their development, have been equally prolific in monastic institutions - they seem to be evoked by the simple rudimentary story which is common to them all. And, indeed, we cannot wonder that that story has engendered and organised abdication of earthly joys such as the monastic system embodies.

Book Twelve Years in Monastery

Download or read book Twelve Years in Monastery written by Joseph McCabe and published by . This book was released on 2020-03-03 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The peculiar value of the book becomes apparent when we remember that Mr. Joseph McCabe was formerly Father Antony, a Grey Friar or a member of the English section of the Order of St. Francis. He sums up his experiences in these words: "The writer, after spending twelve years in various monasteries of the Franciscan Order, found himself compelled, in the early part of last year (1896), to secede from the Roman Catholic priesthood. During those years, besides a long familiarity with the tenor of monastic life, a large experience of Catholic educational, polemical, and administrative methods has been accumulated, and it may not be inopportune to set it forth in simple narrative." For the Protestant there is always an air of mystery around the institutions of the Roman Catholic Church. He has often been victimized by the wild and repulsive stories of "the escaped monk." The accounts of monastic life by such men are evidently extremely onesided and bear the marks of exaggeration, to say the least Mr. McCabe is not an "escaped monk" of that kind. He has not simply laid off the monastic garb, but he has put on a manner of life differing in principle and practice from that of the monk. He is an intelligent convert from Catholicism and withal a gentleman in the description of the institution he has left behind.

Book Three Months in an English Monastery

Download or read book Three Months in an English Monastery written by Charles Walker and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-18 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Months in an English Monastery: A Personal Narrative The following pages contain notes of a visit paid to Claydon in the summer of 1863. Books of travel are much written now-a-days, if not much read; and as we are often told that our own country supplies the widest and most necessitous mission-field without crossing the ocean in search of heathens who need converting, so it not unfrequently happens that as much instruction may he gained by the investigation of home scenes as by researches in foreign climes. At all events, to most Englishmen the monastic system is as much a terra incognita as the source of the Nile, or the interior of the Japanese Empire; and a man who has spent Three Months in a Monastery, though he have naught to relate of perilous encounters and hair-Breadth escapes - though he can grace his narrative with none of the stirring incidents of travel - and though he performed his journey most prosaically by an ordinary English railway - may not unfairly claim some of the respect paid to the visitor of a distant land. The traveller who "does" the Pyramids finds himself surrounded by monuments of the Pharaohs and the Ptolemys; but the inmate of a monastery sees before him daily and hourly a living panorama of the times of St. Benedict and St. Basil, of the ages when those far-off Egyptian deserts were peopled with Antonys and Pachomiuses. Twelve hundred miles may separate the one from his native shores, but the other has travelled back as many years.

Book The Last Abbot of Glastonbury

Download or read book The Last Abbot of Glastonbury written by A. D. Crake and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Last Abbot of Glastonbury: A Tale of the Dissolution of the Monasteries The Author humbly ventures to offer the ninth of his series of original tales, illustrating Church History, to the public; encouraged by the favourable reception the previous volumes have found, In the tales, "AEmilius," "Evanus," and "The Camp on the Severn," he has endeavoured to describe the epoch of the Pagan persecutions, under the Roman Empire; in the "Three Chronicles of AEsccndune," successive epochs of Early English history; in the "Andredsweald," the Norman Conquest; in "Fairleigh Hall," the Great Rebellion; and in the present volume, one of the earliest of the series of events ordinarily grouped under the general phrase "The Reformation," the destruction of the Monasteries. It is many years since the writer was first attracted and yet saddened by the tragical story of the fate of the last Abbot of Glastonbury, and amongst the tales by which he was wont to enliven the Sunday evenings in a large School, this narrative found a foremost place, and excited very general interest, A generation ago, few English Churchmen cared to say a good word for the unhappy monks, who suffered so cruel a persecution at the hands of Henry the Eighth and his vicar-general, Thomas Cromwell.
