Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life of Blessed Henry Suso The Blessed Henry Suso was born at Ueberlingen, near Constance, on St. Benedict´s-day, a.d. 1300. He was of ancient and noble descent both on his father´s and mother´s side. Out of devotion to his mother, who was a person of eminent holiness, he called himself by her maiden name of Seuss, Latinised into Suso, instead of taking his father´s surname, Von Berg. His baptismal name was Henry; but many years later, when he had attained to great holiness, God changed his name into Amandus, or Beloved. The Blessed Henry did not make this known to any one so long as he lived, but a record of it was discovered among his papers after his death. At the age of thirteen he entered the novitiate of the Dominican Convent at Constance, where he was admitted to the vows of religion, and after some years was sent to the convent of his Order at Cologne, to pursue his studies at that University. While there he made such great progress in learning that he was about to be promoted to the degree of doctor in theology.
