A Year with Thomas Merton (eBook, ePUB)

Daily Meditations from His Journals

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Join Thomas Merton on his spiritual path as you start each day with an inspirational and challenging reading from his journals. This intimate daily companion offers the reader wisdom and spiritual guidance, with selections attuned to the seasons and to the movements of Merton's own life - from his ordination as a priest to his retreat into contemplative life, and even to his untimely death in 1968.

Each month begins with a pen-and-ink drawing by Merton, or with one of his black-and-white photographs.

Thomas Merton (1915-1968) is widely regarded as one of the most influential spiritual writers of modern times. He was a Trappist monk, writer, and peace and civil rights activist. His bestselling books include The Seven-Storey Mountain, New Seeds of Contemplation, and Mystics and Zen Masters.

Jonathan Montaldo is president of the International Thomas Merton Society and the immediate past director of the Thomas Merton Center at Bellarmine University. Montaldo is co-editor with Brother Patrick Hart (a monk at the Abbey of Gethsemani) of The Intimate Merton and is sole editor of the second volume of the Thomas Merton Journals, published by HarperSanFrancisco, as well as Dialogues with Silence: Thomas Merton's Prayers & Drawings.
