    Book : Great Expectations (ignatius Critical Editions) -...

    -Titulo Original : Great Expectations (ignatius Critical Editions)-Fabricante : Ignatius Press-Descripcion Original: Pope John Paul II described Dickens books as filled with love for the poor and a sense of social regeneration . . . warm with imagination and humanity. Such true charity permeates Dickens novels and ultimately drives the characters either to choose regeneration or risk disintegration. In Great Expectations, Pip--symbolic of the pilgrim convert--gains both improved fortunes and a growth in wisdom, but as he acquires the latter, he must relinquish the former--ending with a wealth of profound goodness, not of worldly goods. That the Dickensian message was a Christian one is unmistakable. Reminiscent of an Augustinian model, one of reflection, conversion, and moral improvement, Pip undergoes an internal change that manifests itself in his profound contrition for his earlier deeds and his equally profound resolution to make amends. As we travel with Pip, we find that Dickens leads us to an acceptance of worldly limitations and an anticipation of final salvation. The exciting new edition of Dickenss classic novel includes critical essays by some of todays leading Dickens scholars...

    Book : Othello Ignatius Critical Edition (ignatius Critical.

    -Titulo Original : Othello Ignatius Critical Edition (ignatius Critical Editions)-Fabricante : Ignatius Press-Descripcion Original: One of the four great tragedies alongside Hamlet, King Lear, and Macbeth Othello is among the darkest of Shakespeare’s plays, illumining the shadows of the gloomiest recesses of the human psyche and serving as a damning indictment of the world in which it was written. A cautionary tale of the destructiveness of sin and the ruinous consequences of bad philosophy, Othello seems to express Shakespeare’s rage at the cynicism and brutality of the age in which he lived. From the Machiavellian menace of Iago to the blind and prideful jealousy of Othello, this classic of world literature shows us the shadow falling over a society that has turned its back on the light and life of virtue. About the Author Popularly known as the Bard of Avon, English playwright, poet, and actor William Shakespeare was baptised on 26 April 1564. Not much is known about his date of birth or his formal education. Born and brought up in Stratford-upon-Avon, he moved to London at age 21, where he wrote and acted in plays like Hamlet and As You Like It for the theatre group The Kings Men. Shakespeare, who died on 23 April 1616, gave the English language its most beautiful figures of speech, allegories, and images. Joseph Pearce, director of the Aquinas Center for Faith and Culture at Aquinas College in Nashville, is the author of three books on Shakespeare, all published by Ignatius Press, and is the editor of the Ignatius Critical Editions of Romeo and Juliet, The Merchant of Venice, Julius Caesar, Hamlet, King Lear, and Macbeth.

    Book : Father Elijah An Apocalypse - O'Brien, Michael

    -Titulo Original : Father Elijah An Apocalypse-Fabricante : Ignatius Press-Descripcion Original: Review Ive read thousands of books, and this is one of the great ones. I hope tens of thousands read it, and are shaken as I have been. Its a novel that grips one like a thriller -- indeed it is a thriller, but also something far deeper. There are love and friendship, interwoven with drama, but what it is essentially is faith, faith in the Christ. ---Sheldon Vanauken, Author, A Severe MercyFather Elijah is that rare thing, a great novel which is also a testimony to orthodox Catholicism. But it is more even than this. Basing himself squarely on Scripture and human experience, OBrien has produced a prophetic work and a manual of spiritual warfare. This compelling masterpiece will stretch your imagination in the right direction. Read it and pray. ---Stratford Caldecott, Centre for Faith and Culture, OxfordI guarantee you that once you take up this book you will not put it down until the end of the world. Here is a meaty page-turner with the pace of a thriller, beautifully written, and that something more that turns entertainment into literature. ---Ralph McInerny, Author, Fr. Dowling Mysteries Michael OBrien presents a thrilling apocalyptic novel about the condition of the Roman Catholic Church at the end of time. It explores the state of the modern world, and the strengths and weaknesses of the contemporary religious scene, by taking his central character, Father Elijah Schafer, a Carmelite priest, on a secret mission for the Vatican which embroils him in a series of crises and subterfuges affecting the ultimate destiny of the Church.Father Elijah is a convert from Judaism, a survivor of the Holocaust, a man once powerful in Israel. For twenty years he has been buried in the dark night of Carmel on the mountain of the prophet Elijah. The Pope and the Cardinal Secretary of State call him out of obscurity and give him a task of the highest sensitivity: to penetrate into the inner circles of a man whom they believe may be the Antichrist. Their purpose: to call the Man of Sin to repentance, and thus to postpone the great tribulation long enough to preach the Gospel to the whole world.In this richly textured tale, Father Elijah crosses Europe and the Middle East, moves through the echelons of world power, meets saints and sinners, presidents, judges, mystics, embattled Catholic journalists, faithful priests and a conspiracy of traitors within the very House of God. This is an apocalypse in the old literary sense, but one that was written in the light of Christian revelation. About the Author Michael D. OBrien, iconographer, painter, and writer, is the popular author of many best-selling novels including Father Elijah, Elijah in Jerusalem, The Fathers Tale, Eclipse of the Sun, Sophia House, Theophilos, and Island of the World. His novels have been translated into twelve languages and widely reviewed in both secular and religious media in North America and Europe...

    Book : The Genesis Of Gender A Christian Theory - Favale,...

    -Titulo Original : The Genesis Of Gender A Christian Theory-Fabricante : Ignatius Press-Descripcion Original: Review Wielding the magic of her gifted pen, Abigail Favale has written a treasure that culls deep philosophical insight from her riveting intellectual and spiritual journey. Before her conversion to Catholicism, Favale spent years teaching just those postmodern philosophers and literary figures that have turned the Western world upside down. Like a postmodern Saul of Tarsus, she was knocked off her Foucauldian horse for the good of us all: so that, wise to the ways of the world, she could speak the truth in love to our times. -- Erika Bachiochi The question of gender-who we are as men and women-has never been more pressing, or more misunderstood. Weaving personal experience with expert knowledge, Dr. Abigail Favale provides an in-depth yet accessible account of the gender paradigm: a framework for understanding reality and identity that has recently risen to prominence. Favale traces the genealogy of gender to its origins in feminism and postmodern thought, describing how gender has come to eclipse sex, and how that shift is reshaping language, law, medicine, sexuality, and our own self-perceptions. With substance, clarity, and compassion, Favale teases out the hidden assumptions of the gender paradigm and exposes its effects. Yet this book is not merely an expose-it is also a powerful, moving articulation of a Christian understanding of reality: a holistic paradigm that proclaims the dignity of the body, the sacramental meaning of sexual difference, and the interconnectedness of all creation. The Genesis of Gender is a vital, timely resource for anyone seeking to better understand the gender paradigm-and how to live beyond it. Review Favales book is one I will share with my daughters. She begins with the premise that our bodies are for us, in both their blessings and their crosses, and explores how gender helps us know who God has made us to be. Her analysis is sharp, clear, and spoken in love-the right answer to a turbulent age. - Leah Libresco, Author, Building the Benedict Option Abigail Favale has written a beautiful and profound reflection on the gift of our embodiment as male and female. The Genesis of Gender is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand how we arrived at such a confused state and how we can lovingly promote the truth about human nature. - Ryan T. Anderson, Ph.D., President of the Ethics and Public Policy Center; Author, When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Moment This book is Catholic in all my favorite senses. It addresses itself to all people of good will. It is intelligent, factually honest, respectful of every human being, and unafraid of where reason and dialogue and empirics lead it. Not to mention that it is a timely, balanced, and brilliant, unpacking of one of the hottest contemporary debates. - Helen M. Alvare, Professor of Law, Antonin Scalia Law School Every culture in history has taken for granted the God-given truth that human beings are created male or female - until now. If you want to understand how and why we got here so quickly and what to do about it, this is the book to read. - Christopher West, Th.D., President, Theology of the Body Institute Wielding the magic of her gifted pen, Abigail Favale has written a treasure that culls deep philosophical insight from her riveting intellectual and spiritual journey. Before her conversion to Catholicism, Favale spent years teaching just those postmodern philosophers and literary figures that have turned the Western world upside down.

    Book : Two Patients My Conversion From Abortion To...

    -Titulo Original : Two Patients My Conversion From Abortion To Life-affirming Medicine-Fabricante : Ignatius Press-Descripcion Original: After a terrible misjudgment in the delivery room, Dr. John Bruchalski realized that with every pregnant woman he attends, there are two patients-the mother and her unborn child. In addition to this discovery, two remarkable spiritual experiences deepened his understanding of the kind of man he had become and the one he was called to be. Two Patients is the story of how a physician who practiced abortion came to question the medical status quo and to pioneer an approach to reproductive medicine that respects female fertility, honors the dignity of unborn children, and o ers care to patients regardless of their financial situation. Such health care, writes Dr. John Bruchalski, is merciful medicine, and his memoir gives a glimpse of just how merciful the relationship between a doctor and his two patients-mother and child- can be. Review Dr. Bruchalski has written an inspiring story of love and redemption that speaks to the mind and the heart, and it should be in every medical school library in America. is book is concrete proof that where faith and science meet, wisdom is born. A must-read for all doctors, nurses, and expectant parents! - Sue Ellen Browder, Author, Subverted: How I Helped the Sexual Revolution Hijack the Womens Movement This book reveals how a relativistic worldview can shift and confuse a young persons moral compass to the point where a man who was raised in a pro-life home and only wanted to help women and children is persuaded to perpetrate evil against them. His conversion story and current zeal for life and ethics in medicine are inspiring. - Abby Johnson, Author, Unplanned and The Walls Are Talking This is Dr. Bruchalskis conversion journey from providing abortions to becoming a preeminent pro-life OB/GYN. Along the way, we experience a reawakening of faith and discover the truth, goodness, and beauty of Church teaching. Read and share Two Patients with others. Youll never look at the issue of life the same way again! - David Bereit, Co-founder, 40 Days for Life Dr. Bruchalski is a personal hero of mine. Modern medicine is incredible in its ability to save and improve lives. At the same time, it can be used to dehumanize and commodify the lives of patients. Dr. Bruchalskis loving example of care is an invitation to the medical community-and the culture at large-to embrace life no matter the circumstances. - Kristan Hawkins, President, Students for Life Beautifully brings attention to the inviolable dignity of human life when the prevalent modern worldview is devaluing it. Through powerful stories of personal and professional experiences, Dr. Buchalski brilliantly makes the compelling case for the need to protect human life at every stage of development. - Obianuju Ekeocha, Author, Target Africa: Ideological Neocolonialism of the Twenty-First Century This beautiful story provides a window into the pressures of working in the medical community; the healing mercy of God as he meets our human brokenness; and most importantly, the powerful strength of Gods grace when we surrender to his call. Blessed as one of Dr. Bruchalskis many patients, I can personally attest to the power of the Holy Spirit present in his work! This book is an inspiration to any pro-lifer and to anyone answering the noble call of medicine. - Jeanne Mancini, President, March for Life About the Author John Bruchalski, M.D., earned his medical degree from the University of South Alabama College of Medicine in 1987. He completed his OB/GYN residency at Eastern Virginia Medical Center and the Jones Institute for Reproductive Medicine in Norfolk, Virginia, in 1991. He received board certification in 1993.

    Book : Rome Sweet Home Our Journey To Catholicism - Hahn,...

    -Titulo Original : Rome Sweet Home Our Journey To Catholicism-Fabricante : Ignatius Press-Descripcion Original: The well-known and very popular Catholic couple, Scott and Kimberly Hahn, have been constantly travelling and speaking all over North America for the last few years about their conversion to the Catholic Church. Now these two outstanding Catholic apologists tell in their own words about the incredible spiritual journey that led them to embrace Catholicism. Scott Hahn was a Presbyterian minister, the top student in his seminary class, a brilliant Scripture scholar, and militantly anti-Catholic ... until he reluctantly began to discover that his enemy had all the right answers. Kimberly, also a top-notch theology student in the seminary, is the daughter of a well-known Protestant minister, and went through a tremendous dark night of the soul after Scott converted to Catholicism. Their conversion story and love for the Church has captured the hearts and minds of thousands of lukewarm Catholics and brought them back into an active participation in the Church. They have also influenced countless conversions to Catholicism among their friends and others who have heard their powerful testimony. Written with simplicity, charity, grace and wit, the Hahns deep love and knowledge of Christ and of Scripture is evident and contagious throughout their story. Their love of truth and of neighbor is equally evident, and their theological focus on the great importance of the family, both biological and spiritual, will be a source of inspiration for all readers. Review One of the beautiful and bright-shining stars in the firmament of hope for our desperate days is this couple, the Hahns, and this story of their life and their conversion. - Peter Kreeft, Author, Back to Virtue Dynamic, fresh, and devoted are terms which describe the approach that Scott and Kimberly Hahn take to assist in the renewal of the Church in the United States. Now, with their conversion, they are admirably suited to assist Catholics in re-discovering the treasure that has been entrusted to them. My hope is that many people will benefit from contact with Scott and Kimberly Hahn through their stories of conversion. - Most Reverend John Myers, Bishop of Peoria About the Author Kimberly Hahn, a home-schooling mother of five, holds a Master of Arts Theology degree, and is the co-author with her husband, Scott, ofRome Sweet Home, she is also a frequent speaker at conferences on family issues.

    Book : All One In Christ A Catholic Critique Of Racism And..

    -Titulo Original : All One In Christ A Catholic Critique Of Racism And Critical Race Theory-Fabricante : Ignatius Press-Descripcion Original: What does the Catholic Church teach about racism? What should Catholics think about Critical Race Theory, which is currently being widely promoted in the name of antiracism All One in Christ lucidly explains the Churchs clear and consistent condemnation of racism, showing that the condemnation is not a recent development but deeply rooted in centuries of papal teaching and Scholastic theology. This book also demonstrates that Critical Race Theory, far from being a remedy for racism, is, in fact, a new and insidious form of racism that cannot be reconciled with the social teaching of the Church and the call of Christ. Edward Feser exhorts Catholics to oppose Critical Race Theory-precisely because they are opposed to racial injustice. They must reaffirm that all human beings are rational creatures capable of knowledge and charity and redemption from sin through grace. Review This is the best book Ive read on the topic. Ed Feser writes in accessible yet nuanced ways to demonstrate the philosophical and theological errors of both racism and Critical Race Theory. - Ryan T. Anderson, Ph.D., President, Ethics and Public Policy Center; Author, Tearing Us Apart: How Abortion Harms Everything and Solves Nothing There is not a better book on the subject from a Catholic perspective. All One in Christ should be required reading for any Catholic prelate, parent, principal, or college president. - Francis J. Beckwith, Ph.D., Professor of Philosophy and Church-State Studies, Baylor University Fesers account of the Churchs opposition to slavery is authoritative, but it is his devastating takedown of Critical Race Theory that makes this book so special. - Bill Donohue, President, Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights; Author, Common Sense Catholicism Dr. Feser shows the consistent magisterial emphasis on the dignity of every human person and brilliantly articulates the Churchs clear and unambiguous teaching against racism. An absolute must-have for all Catholics who want to be well informed about racism and Critical Race Theory. - Deacon Harold Burke-Sivers, Author, Behold the Man: A Catholic Vision of Male Spirituality Edward Feser reveals that Critical Race Theory, by its own definition, embraces partiality, thus making it clear that this theory is in no way an answer to racism, but is, in fact, a covert form of racism. - Rev. Walter B. Hoye, Founder, Issues4Life Foundation A careful examination of Critical Race Theory that goes beyond the political and journalistic squabbles to fundamental questions of truth and justice. Ed Feser maintains steadiness and balance as he brings faith and reason to bear on the most heated public controversies. - Robert Royal, Author, A Deeper Vision: The Catholic Intellectual Tradition in the Twentieth Century Edward Feser offers an analysis that helps Catholics better understand the Churchs stance on racism and uphold the inherent dignity of each human Being. - Fr. John M. McKenzie, National Shrine of the Little Flower Basilica About the Author Edward Feser, Ph.D., is Professor of Philosophy at Pasadena City College in Pasadena, California. Called by National Review one of the best contemporary writers on philosophy, he is the author of many books including Five Proofs of the Existence of God, By Man Shall His Blood Be Shed, The Last Superstition: A Refutation of the New Atheism, Aquinas, and Scholastic Metaphysics...

    Book : Advent Of The Heart Seasonal Sermons And Prison...

    -Titulo Original : Advent Of The Heart Seasonal Sermons And Prison Writings - 1941-1944-Fabricante : Ignatius Press-Descripcion Original: Fr. Alfred Delp,S.J., was a heroic German Jesuit priest who was imprisoned and martyred by the Nazis in a Nazi death camp in 1945. At the time of his arrest, he was the Rector of St. Georg Church in Munich, and had a reputation for being a gripping, dynamic preacher, and one who was an outspoken critic of the Nazi regime. He was an important figure in the Resistance movement against Nazism. Accused of conspiring against the Nazi government, he was arrested in 1944, tortured, imprisoned, and executed on Feb 2, 1945. While in prison, Fr. Delp was able to write a few meditations found in this book, which also includes his powerful reflections from prison during the Advent season about the profound spiritual meaning and lessons of Advent, as well as his sermons he gave on the season of Advent at his parish in Munich. These meditations were smuggled out of Berlin and read by friends and parishioners of St. Georg in Munich. His approach to Advent, the season that prepares us for Christmas, is what Fr. Delp called an Advent of the heart. More than just preparing us for Christmas, it is a spiritual program, a way of life. He proclaimed that our personal, social and historical circumstances, even suffering, offer us entry into the true Advent, our personal journey toward a meeting and dialogue with God. Indeed, his own life, and great sufferings, illustrated the true Advent he preached and wrote about. From his very prison cell he presented a timeless spiritual message, and in an extreme situation, his deep faith gave him the courage to draw closer to God, and to witness to the truth even at the cost of his own life. These meditations will challenge and inspire all Christians to embark upon that same spiritual journey toward union with God, a journey that will transform our lives. As one of the last witnesses who knew Fr. Alfred Delp personally, I am very pleased this book will make him better known in America. The more one reads his writings, the more one clearly recognizes the prophetic message for our times! Like his contemporary, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Delp ranks among the great prophets who endured the horror of Nazism and handed down a powerful message for our times. Karl Kreuser, S.J.,from the Forewor...

    Book : Adam And Eve After The Pill, Revisited - Eberstadt,..

    -Titulo Original : Adam And Eve After The Pill, Revisited-Fabricante : Ignatius Press-Descripcion Original: Celebrated author Mary Eberstadt continues her ground-breaking examination of the legacy of the sexual revolution. The books predecessor, Adam and Eve after the Pill (2012), dissected the revolutions microcosmic fallout via its empirical effects on the lives of men, women, and children. This follow-on book investigates the revolutions macrocosmic transformations in three spheres: society, politics, and Christianity. It also includes an analysis of the recent U.S. Supreme Court decision that overturned Roe v. Wade. With unflinching logic, Eberstadt summarizes the toll on Western society of todays fractured homes, feral children, and social isolates. Empathetic yet precise, she connects the dots between shrinking, broken families and rising sexual confusion, seen most recently in transgenderism and related phenomena. The book also traces the dissolution of the home to signature developments in Western politics, especially the increase in acrimony, polarization, street violence, and identity politics. The result is an indictment of the turn taken by much of the world following the post-1960s embrace of contraception and the stigmatization of traditional morality. The books section on the revolutions infiltration of the churches is must-reading for anyone concerned about the fate of Western Christianity. In a moment when millions wonder whether the Catholic Church will retreat from age-old moral teachings, this book demands to be put at the center of discussion. Adam and Eve after the Pill, Revisited is both an indispensable blueprint for todays emerging revisionism, and a manifesto for a more humane order to come...

    Book : An Exorcist More Stories - Gabriele Amorth

    -Titulo Original : An Exorcist More Stories-Fabricante : Ignatius Press-Descripcion Original: Following up his international best-selling book, An Exorcist Tells His Story, Fr. Gabriele Amorth, the renowned chief exorcist of Rome, expands on some of the key topics of his previous book, covering important details about demonic or occult issues. He uses concrete examples from his own experiences and those of other exorcists to illustrate and substantiate his points. Since satanic sects, occultism, sTances, fortune-tellers and astrologers are so widespread today, Father Amorth asks the question why is it so difficult today to find an exorcist, or a priest who is an expert in this field? The example and the teaching of Christ is very clear, as is the tradition of the Church. But todays Catholics are often misinformed. Exorcisms are reserved for appointed priests, while all believers can make prayers of liberation. What is the difference? What norms must be followed? What problems are still open and unresolved in this field? The new book by Father Amorth answers these and many other questions, supporting his discourse with a rich exposition of recent facts. A valuable, practical and instructive manual for priests and lay people, on how to help many who are suffering...

Amorth allows the reader to witness the activities of the exorcist, to experience what an exorcist sees and does. He also reveals how little modern science, psychology, and medicine can do to help those under Satans influence, and that only the power of Christ can release them from this kind of mental, spiritual or physical suffering.

    -Titulo Original : A Catholic Introduction To The Bible The Old Testament-Fabricante : Ignatius Press-Descripcion Original: Although many Catholics are familiar with the four Gospels and other writings of the New Testament, for most, reading the Old Testament is like walking into a foreign land. Who wrote these forty-six books? When were they written? Why were they written? What are we to make of their laws, stories, histories, and prophecies? Should the Old Testament be read by itself or in light of the New Testament? John Bergsma and Brant Pitre offer readable in-depth answers to these questions as they introduce each book of the Old Testament. They not only examine the literature from a historical and cultural perspective but also interpret it theologically, drawing on the New Testament and the faith of the Catholic Church. Unique among introductions, this volume places the Old Testament in its liturgical context, showing how its passages are employed in the current Lectionary used at Mass. Accessible to nonexperts, this thorough and up-to-date introduction to the Old Testament can serve as an idea textbook for biblical studies.

    Book : Charis In The World Of Wonders A Novel Set In Puritan

    -Titulo Original : Charis In The World Of Wonders A Novel Set In Puritan New England-Fabricante : Ignatius Press-Descripcion Original: When I swung over that windowsill, everything changed for me. We are meant to go in and out of doors in civilized style, but my mother bade me climb into woodsy wildness and a darkness flushed with crimson light and torches ... Clambering into the branches of a tree, a young woman flees flaming arrows and massacre. She will need to struggle for survival: to scour the wilderness for shelter, to strive and seek for a new family and a setting where she can belong. Her unmarked way is costly and hard. For Charis, the world outside the window of home is a maze of hazards. And even if she survives the wilds, it is no simple matter to discover and nest among her own kind--the godly, those called Puritans by others. She may be tugged by her desires for companionship, may even stumble into an intense love for a man, and may be made to try the strength of female heroism in ways no longer familiar to women in our century. Streams of darkness run through the seventeenth-century villages of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Occult fears have a way of creeping into the mind. What young woman can be safe from the dangers of wilderness when its shadowy thickets spring up so easily in the soil of human hearts? Much will oppose Charis longings for renewal and peace; she must pursue and discover the heros path to a larger, more vivid life...

    Book : Science At The Doorstep To God Science And Reason In.

    -Titulo Original : Science At The Doorstep To God Science And Reason In Support Of God, The Soul, And Life After Death-Fabricante : Ignatius Press-Descripcion Original: Today, there is more science-based evidence for God, the soul, and life after death than ever before. Then why are scores of people turning to unbelief because of science? The answer is simple: they do not know the science. Science at the Doorstep to God presents in depth the latest evidence to turn the rising tide of unbelief. Father Robert Spitzer, S.J., synthesizes eight recent studies confirming an intelligent creator of physical reality as well as a transphysical soul capable of surviving bodily death. This is the most comprehensive scientific treatment of God and the afterlife to date. It combines natural scientific method, metaphysical method, medical studies, anthropological and genetics studies, and phenomenological descriptions, showing how each distinct method and data set reinforces the others. It is critical for the Church to learn and share the fruits of this research and again to demonstrate the profound complementarity between the Catholic faith and science. Through reason, we can come to see not only the great intelligence of the Creator, but also signs of his love, goodness, and glory...

    -Titulo Original : What Is Christianity? The Last Writings-Fabricante : Ignatius Press-Descripcion Original: After Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI resigned from the papacy in 2013, he never stopped thinking or writing. Near the end of his life, he and editor Elio Guerriero gathered together a whole volume of new material, dealing with the themes closest to his heart. The pope asked that it be published upon his death. This final work is What Is Christianity? It takes up a kaleidoscopic array of themes: the Christian faiths relationship with other religions, especially Judaism and Islam; the theology and reform of the liturgy; the priesthood; the saints; the Eucharist; the tragedy of abuse; the beauty of nature; Italian and German culture; and much more. With prophetic insight into our times, Benedict warns of a radical manipulation of man in the name of tolerance, insisting that the only authentic counterweight to every form of intolerance is Christ himself-and Christ crucified. A lifelong Catholic, the late pope pays tribute to some of the giant figures of Christianity who have served him through the years as guiding stars: his predecessor Pope John Paul II, the twentieth-century German Jesuit martyr Alfred Delp, and the silent carpenter Joseph, his patron saint. What Is Christianity? is a frank spiritual testament from a theological master, a churchman who loved the faith of simple Christians but who always stood ready, even in his last days, to dialogue about every aspect of human life-in love and in truth...

    Book : Dracula (ignatius Critical Editions) - Stoker, Bram

    -Titulo Original : Dracula (ignatius Critical Editions)-Fabricante : Ignatius Press-Descripcion Original: When solicitors clerk Jonathan Harker travels to Transylvania on business to meet a mysterious Romanian count named Dracula, he little expects the horrors this strange meeting will unleash. Thus Bram Stokers 1897 novel of blood and passion begins, rapidly accelerating from Harkers nightmarish experiences in Castle Dracula to a full-fledged vampiric assault on late-Victorian London itself. The story, narrated through a collection of documents-primarily journal entries and letters-chronicles the desperate efforts of a band of gentlemen to protect the virtue of their ladies and lay to rest the ancient threat once and for all. Often vacillating wildly between the terrible and the comic, Dracula at the same time brings to life a host of compelling themes: tensions between antiquity and modernity; the powers and limitations of technology; the critical importance of feminine virtue; the difference between superstition and religion; the nature of evil; and, perhaps most compellingly, the complex relationship between ancient faith and scientific enlightenment. More vivid than any of its varied film adaptations, and over a century after its first publication, Dracula still retains its sharp bite...

    Book : Too Small A World The Life Of Mother Frances Cabrini.

    -Titulo Original : Too Small A World The Life Of Mother Frances Cabrini-Fabricante : Ignatius Press-Descripcion Original: The world is too small, Saint Frances Cabrini (1850-1917) once declared. I would like to embrace it all, to reach every corner. This compelling, authoritative biography chronicles the astounding life of a petite Italian-born religious sister who, with the heart of a missionary, conquered all odds to become the first American citizen canonized a saint. Theodore Maynard traces Cabrinis journey from her humble beginnings in northern Italy to her pioneering mission across the United States serving the poor and the sick on a massive scale. Between her work with immigrants (in New York, Denver, Chicago, Seattle, New Orleans, and beyond), her building of schools, orphanages, and hospitals, and her founding of the Missionary Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, Mother Cabrinis entrepreneurial work would change the course of American history, marking it with Christs mercy. Maynard draws his material directly from the official files for Cabrinis canonization, from her letters, and from interviews with Missionary Sisters who were close to her. What emerges from this complex portrait is a woman of boundless compassion, courage, and energy, whose legacy continues to inspire people around the world today. If anybody could effect the impossible, writes Theodore Maynard, it was this Italian nun...

    Book : The Greatest Philosopher Who Ever Lived - Peter...

    -Titulo Original : The Greatest Philosopher Who Ever Lived-Fabricante : Ignatius Press-Descripcion Original: In 2019, Peter Kreeft published Socrates Children, a four-volume series on the hundred greatest philosophers of all time, spanning from ancient Greece to contemporary Germany. But he made a terrible mistake: he somehow left out women, and with this, he overlooked the greatest mind of them all. He forgot her-a mysterious housewife from a desert village-because he had forgotten what philosophy means. Philosophy is not the cultivation of cleverness, Kreeft explains, or the sophistications of scholarship, or the analysis of analysis, or the refutation of refutations, or the deconstruction of deconstructions. No, philosophy is a romance, a love affair-the love of wisdom. This book is a one-of-a-kind study on Mary of Nazareth, the mother of Jesus. If Jesus Christ is wisdom incarnate, and if Mary loved Him more than anyone else ever did, then it holds that Mary is the greatest philosopher, the greatest wisdom-lover. With precision and humor, Kreeft not only unpacks the thought and spirit of Mary as we know her through Scripture and Church doctrine, but offers a heartfelt crash course in the basics of philosophy-methodology, epistemology, logic, metaphysics, cosmology, ethics, politics, aesthetics, and more-all through the lens of the Mother of God. Fans of Kreeft will find here another fine example of his characteristic freshness, creativity, depth, and readability. But above all, those who are curious about the mother of Jesus, whether they are new to Christian faith or simply hoping to discover it anew, will likely find themselves swept up in the tide of Marys wise love for God. About the Author Peter Kreeft, Ph.D., Professor of Philosophy at Boston College, is one of the most respected and prolific Christian authors of our time. His many bestselling books cover a vast array of topics in spirituality, theology, and philosophy. They include Wisdom from the Psalms, Practical Theology, Doors in the Walls of the World, How to Be Holy, Because God Is Real, You Can Understand the Bible, Angels and Demons, Heaven: The Hearts Deepest Longing, and Summa of the Summa...
