Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Latter-Day Converts: Translated From the French of Rev. Alexis Crosnier, Professor in the University of Angers The story of a conversion has a twofold interest, the one human, the other supernatural. On the human side there is something of romance, the great adventure of a soul traversing the perilous but finally happy way from darkness to light; on the supernatural, it brings us into the region of mystery, for the ultimate why we are unable to probe, lying as it does at the inscrutable fountain-heads of the divine grace. But it is not for the purpose of either the merely human, or even the supernatural interest, though both are essentially bound up in the recital, that the Abbe Crosnier has given to the world the story of the conversion of five of the most eminent figures in literary France in recent times. His object is rather to construct what may be called a living apologetic out of the history of the conversion of Ferdinand Brunetiere, Paul Bourget, Joris-Karl Huysmans, François Coppee and Adolphe Rette.
