Volume 14 - DEHARBE. This volume contains two catechisms by that most outstanding German catechist of the nineteenth century, Fr. Joseph Deharbe, S.J. First joining the Jesuit mission to Switzerland in 1840, Fr. Deharbe was widely regarded as a highly knowledgeable and engaging catechist and evangelist, and was soon asked to compose a new German-language catechism. His efforts yielded several brilliant catechisms for different levels of understanding, which were swiftly adopted by the episcopate of Germany and beyond. This volume reproduces two of his best-known works: later, more polished editions of the Small Catechism and the Complete Catechism of the Catholic Religion, written for children and adults, respectively. With characteristically German precision and clarity, Deharbe's catechisms fostered the faith of children and adults across an astounding span of time, in nearly every European language (and many others besides), and remain admirable for their sensible and e
Autorenporträt
Cardinal Peter Gasparri, once a papal candidate, was perhaps the most influential theologian of his time. At the request of Pope St. Pius X, he authored the first major Code of Canon Law in Church history -- a staggering achievement in and of itself -- and then followed it with one of the greatest single-volume compendiums of Catholic doctrine ever written.This immensely popular catechism is back in print for the first time in almost a century as part of the monumental Tradivox series, in its most beautiful binding to date. In every way meriting its auspicious title of "The Catholic Catechism," this acclaimed work offers an extensive and logical explanation of the Faith, masterfully arraying the teachings of the Church in three learning levels: to prepare children for Holy Communion, to instruct older children in the catechism, and to offer formation for adults by enriching their understanding of Church teachings.This gem of a resource was designed not only to help individuals deepen their faith but also for widespread use by catechists in the universal Church. In fact, it was rapidly translated into multiple languages after its release and was widely expected to be adopted as the Vatican's "universal catechism."In this treasured volume, His Eminence explains the purpose of the catechism -- to stir up men's hearts and help them lead moral lives in harmony with divine truth. To this end, he includes detailed footnotes that provide teachers with scriptural and practical examples of truths of the Faith to share with their students, along with recommendations on how to live these teachings in daily life.As you absorb the Church's fundamental teachings in these evergreen pages, you will find: Clear and accessible definitions of core theological termsDetailed descriptions of the sacraments and their power in effecting graceReflections on the meaning of traditional prayers and related themesPractical instructions on leading a life of virtue and overcoming temptationAnswers to disputed questions touched on in the catechismExplanations of the Church's social and moral teachingsAlso included are numerous biblical and primary sources, saints' writings, extensive excerpts from important Church documents, and thorough appendices for easy referencing and further exploration.
