Produktbeschreibung
A compelling window into a sacred life and a changing city, The Demands Of Rome opens a window onto a sister's inner world and the public sphere where faith meets social need. Elizabeth Schoffen's account of thirty-one years in the Sisters of Charity offers a vivid religious memoir that feels both intimate and universal. This¿ is not merely a diary; it is a carefully shaped convent life narrative that blends personal vow with acts of service, charting a long arc of charity and devotion set against nineteenth-century Rome. Readers encounter a Roman Catholic setting brought to life with quiet detail, while scholars of religious biography will find valuable context for research on sisters' biographies collection and the social work that faith inspired. The work speaks to general readers of memoirs who seek honest, human stories of vocation, duty, and daily courage. Literary and historical significance are threaded through every page, making this book essential for both casual readers and classic-literature collectors. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. This edition honours the original voice while inviting new eyes to discover the enduring legacies of charity, sisterhood and vows, and the richly illustrated religious memoirs that illuminate a pivotal era in Rome.
