Paperback. Zustand: Good. This book consists of a series of daily meditations written by the eminent Latinist Antonio Cardinal Bacci (1885-1971) who served as the Vatican's chief Latinist for over 40 years. The English edition has been out-of-print since 1965. In it, Cardinal Bacci explores vast areas of Catholic principles on the spiritual life using such sources as: Sacred Scripture, the writings of the Saints with particular emphasis on St. Thomas Aquinas, the Church Fathers, many passages from Thomas a Kempis' The Imitation of Christ and other spiritual authors. This second edition includes many new features to make the book more readable. Here follows a section from the book's introduction (not found in the original book): As for the present edition, we have decided to make a few changes from the original English edition more in terms of style than substance. We have eliminated all of the footnotes from the original edition and have inserted them into the body of the text instead. When possible, we have made the references clearer so that the reader may easily refer to them if he so desires. We have added a Works Cited page so the reader can see a list of the works Cardinal Bacci has used. The reader can use this list to explore or study those works in more detail. All of the Scripture references have been given a uniform style. We have tried to correct all of the spelling mistakes found in the original text. In addition, we have added an English translation to a long passage from St. Bernard of Clairvaux that was kept in Latin. We expanded the Table of Contents to include all of the meditations. Finally, we added an editor's note to three entries: the nature of the Pope's authority, the relationship between faith and mortal sin, and the teaching on venial sin (January 20, The Pope; April 23, Faith and Charity; October 14, The Ascension of Jesus into Heaven). Given the English translation which we used and the devotional nature of this book (it is not meant as a theological treatise), we thought it wise to include those notes to avoid any possible misunderstandings of Cardinal Bacci's words.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Antonio Bacci was rector of the archdiocesan seminary of Florence when his exceptional knowledge of Latin caused him to be summoned to Rome in 1922 to join the office of the Secretary of State as an assistant, first to Aurelio Galli and then to Nicola Sebastiani, the chief Latinists of the Holy See. Bacci succeeded Sebastiani as Secretary of Briefs to Princes upon the latter's death in 1931. In the first half of the memoirs here translated, Bacci discusses his relationship with Popes Pius XI, Pius XII, John XXIII, and Paul VI during the period 1931?1964. After these reminiscences, the Cardinal explains, in the second half of the book, the reasons why the Catholic Church must maintain the Latin language as its official language, addressing all the while the objections that were being raised at that time, when the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council was in full swing. He poses and answers the question whether it is at all possible that even the Church should now repudiate or abandon Latin, which, together with Greek, is the natural womb of our civilization and of our literatures and is still the sole linguistic bond among cultured people amidst such a variety of tongues.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This third edition is published in a smaller trim size. For the sake of greater readability, we have retained the editorial changes introduced in the previous edition. Scripture citations have been incorporated into the body of the text; the lengthy Latin passage from St. Bernard of Clairvaux has been translated into English; and several editorial notes have been added to clarify points of doctrine that might otherwise prove confusing to the reader. We have also corrected errors that escaped our notice in the previous edition.This book consists of a series of daily meditations written by the eminent Latinist Antonio Cardinal Bacci (1885-1971), who served for more than forty years as one of the Vatican's foremost Latinists. The English edition had been out of print since 1965.In these meditations, Cardinal Bacci ranges widely over the principles of the Catholic spiritual life, drawing upon Sacred Scripture, the writings of the saints-with particular emphasis on St. Thomas Aquinas-the Church Fathers, numerous passages from Thomas à Kempis's The Imitation of Christ, and other masters of the spiritual life.In writing these pages I have desired likewise to do a little good, first of all for myself and secondly for those who may wish to read and reflect upon them. I hoped to accomplish something for myself in that I wrote down these short daily meditations in order to be able to remember them more easily and to be able to turn to them whenever the opportunity should arise. Then, on the advice of enlightened friends, I decided to publish them in the hope that they might prove useful to others.It was my intention to produce an edifying rather than an erudite work. This explains the simple style and the repetition of certain ideas. I have found it convenient to return to these ideas at regular intervals in order to impress them more deeply on the mind and heart of the reader.May God and the Blessed Virgin bless my labour so that it may be the source of good for many souls.Antonio Cardinal Bacci.…
