The Mystery of Romuald and the Five Brothers: Stories from the Benedictines & Camaldolese
Book details
Summary
Description
Since Saint Romuald founded the great monastery of Camaldoli in Tuscany, a thousand years ago, it has enjoyed an uninterrupted life under the Beneditine Rule. The quest for Romuald's spirituality takes up the first part of this book. The second part turns to the High Middle Ages and to the carefully annotated story of The Five Brothers, followers of Romuald. Their story is an important part of Polish history. The final part of this book is an English translation of the life of Saint Romuald originally written by Saint Peter Damian. As a whole the book presents elements of monasticism fundamental to our appreciation of modern Western Spirituality.
