Blessed Guerric Of Igny; (Thomas Merton) The Christmas Sermons of Bl. Guerric of Igny
Louisville, Kentucky Abbey of Gethsemani 1959 First Edition Hardcover Near Fine with no dust jacket
8vo - 23 x 15 cm.; (2) - 62 pp. Wine-red cloth on spine with gilt lettering, patterned grey / white paper on boards with wine-red lettering on a white paste down label on front. A collection of 5 sermons (translated by Sister Rose of Lima) given by Guerric of Igny. Igny was a Cistercian foundation in the Marne valley and was one of the first generation "daughters of Clairvaux" as it was founded by Bernard himself. It is said that Bernard had a special affection for this abbey and Guerric, its first abbot. Bl. Guerric of Igny, along with St. Bernard of Clairvaux, William of St. Thierry, Bl. Alfred of Rievaulx were known as the "four Cistercian evangelists". Guerric, himself, had a special affection for the Infant Jesus but as God present among us as an Infant not as the Baby Jesus. This devotion reached its full flowering with St. Francis of Assisi in 13th century. Guerric died in 1157. Merton provides a 25 page essay/commentary on the Christmas sermons which themselves make up the rest of this slender volume. 2 pages of notes written by Merton that are definitely Trappist in nature. The book itself shows very minor wear on the corners with some slight foxing of the text block edges. There is a previous owner's inscription on the ffep in green ink: "To Peter with love + blessing - F. Basil". 7140
