Volume 13 of 22 in the Aesthetical Works of St. Alphonsus de Liguori, first published in 1843. Alphonsus Maria de Liguori was an Italian Catholic bishop, spiritual writer, scholastic philosopher and theologian, and founder of the Redemptorists, an influential religious congregation. He was canonized in 1839 and proclaimed a Doctor of the Church in 1871. In this thirteenth volume of his "Aesthetical Works", Liguori meditates on the Holy Mass. He divides the work into four parts: the nature of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, the ceremonies within the Mass, preparation for Mass, and an exhortation to priests who rush through the divine liturgy. Studying each line with guidance from the Fathers of the Church and other great saints, Liguori writes in a short style which is ideal for daily reading and reflection. Reproduced from older English edition, this non-facsimile (that is, not photocopied) 2018 edition has been faithfully edited (with 675 footnotes) to provide a clean and trim appearance of the original text and to continue the proliferation of a great spiritual work.
