{"product_id":"liturgical-feasts-and-seasons-9781725253131","title":"Liturgical Feasts and Seasons","description":"This critical edition makes available for the first time Thomas Merton's novitiate conferences on liturgy. Though dating from the period just before the liturgical reforms of Vatican II, Merton's commentaries remain pertinent for their insights on his own commitment to this central dimension of Christian life, on his work introducing students to the patterns that would mark their lives as monks, and on the perennial meaning of the key events of the liturgical year. The thoroughly annotated text is preceded by an extensive introduction situating this material in the context of Merton's lifelong writing on liturgy. As Merton's former student Br. Paul Quenon writes in his foreword: \"Nowhere in all of Merton's writings can one find such an extended demonstration of the hermeneutical approach he took in commenting on Scripture. This was focused intensely on finding the meaning Scripture had for our life in God . . . These notes . . . take us into one man's lifetime of reflection and seasoned experience of the Church Year.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cascade Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/09\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781725253131\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 610\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.50d","brand":"Thomas Merton","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42567519928501,"sku":"9781725253131","price":67.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_98ddc668-d2e7-4fbe-8dad-e938118bb677.jpg?v=1671551362","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/liturgical-feasts-and-seasons-9781725253131","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
