Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sermons for Sundays and Festivals: The Blessed Virgin, Charity Sermons, Panegyrics of the Saints, &C., Translated From the French of Rev. N. Tuite Mac Carthy, S. J If the name and character of the Abbé Mac Carthy were as familiar as they ought to be to the mass of his countrymen, it would be unnecessary to advocate the claims of the following pages to their favourable notice. He has long been celebrated throughout France as one of the ablest defenders of religion in modern × he is universally acknowledged to have been little inferior, if not equal, to any of the preachers of that country, where pulpit eloquence remains unrivalled; he has been venerated even in the worst times, and by the worst men, for his eminent sanctity and apostolic spirit, as well as for his amiable and benevolent disposition; and the countries which were blessed by the exercise of his zeal, still gratefully cherish the memory of his virtues, and the traditions of the wonders he achieved. The intrinsic excellence of his apostolic precepts, and the beneficial influence of his virtuous example, must therefore commend even this feeble attempt to furnish the edifying details of his life, and to interpret the emanations of his brilliant abilities; but associated as he has been with this country by ties of birth, of early education, of relationship with many of its distinguished members, and descent from an ancient and honoured dynasty, who sustained so many sacrifices for religion, this imperfect memorial must possess an especial interest for every Irish Catholic.
