O knihe
This volume gathers together twelve essays that Thomas Merton wrote
for various journals between 1947 and 1952, the years that saw the
publication of his best-selling autobiography The Seven Storey Mountain,
his ordination to the priesthood, and his initial appointment as spiritual
and intellectual guide of the young monks at the Abbey of Gethsemani.
The essays, most of which have never been reprinted, focus above all
on aspects of the contemplative life but also consider the spiritual
dimensions of literature and the social implications of Christian life.
Issued to coincide with the one hundredth anniversary of his birth,
this collection brings to fruition at long last Merton's own original plan of
publishing these essays as a group and so makes available a previously little
recognized and underutilized resource for understanding and appreciating
a crucial transitional phase in his life as both monk and writer.
