Sobre este artículo
Harcourt, Brace, 1949. Hardcover. Good/No Dustjacket . An x-library copy; hinge cracked. A good reading copy. With clarity and wisdom, Merton explores the history of the Cistercian Order from its founding in 1098, its development and waning, and the seventeenth-century reforms by the Abbé de Rancé, which began the second flowering that continues today. Throughout, Merton illuminates the purposes of monasticism and its surprising resurgence in America and elsewhere. Thomas Merton (1915 – 1968) was an American Trappist monk, writer, theologian, mystic, poet, social activist and scholar of comparative religion. He is arguably the most influential American Catholic author of the twentieth century.
