I was assigned this book for a class on English Spirituality which started off with an exploration in Celtic and Pre-Celtic Christianity. I found de Waal's book to provide a great background, with wonderful examples. I found the writing personable and engaging. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in exploring and expanding their spiritual journey and prayer life. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Esther de Waal, one of Celtic Christianity's preeminent scholars, shows how this tradition of worship draws on both the pre-Christian past and on the fullness of the Gospel. It is also an enlightening glimpse at the history, folklore, and liturgy of the Celtic people. Esther de Waal introduces readers to monastic prayer and praise (the foundation stone of Celtic Christianity), early Irish litanies, medieval Welsh praise poems, and the wealth of blessings derived from an oral tradition that made prayer a part of daily life. Through this invigorating book, readers enter a world in which ritual and rhythm, nature and seasons, images and symbols play an essential role. A welcome contrast to modern worship, Celtic prayer is liberating and, like a living spring, forever fresh. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
