Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Meditations on the Gospels: For Every Day in the Year Father Médaille was a French Jesuit who laboured assiduously, some two centuries ago, in his native country, for thirty long years, in the pulpit and the confessional. He died in 1709 at at advanced age. His Meditations on the Gospels have been translated into Latin, Italian, Spanish, German and Dutch. This is the first English version. It will bring the number of editions hitherto published to within a fraction of forty. It is evident that the book possesses merit which has been widely recognised. Some meditation books disappoint highly educated people, because the points are unduly spun out. Father Medaille is brief, terse, and suggestive. Each of his meditations contains germs of thought that spontaneously, as it were, run into natural developments, and very many are fertile with seedlings that quickly grow up into fruit-bearing plants. The author, moreover, writes soberly, and is singularly free from far-fetched sentiment. Ninety-nine out of every hundred Englishmen dislike anything that seems to savour of affectation or unreality.
