St. Thérèse of Lisieux: Her Last Conversations (Revised Edition)
St. Thérèse of Lisieux (1873–1897) spent the final months of her short life in the infirmary of the Carmel of Lisieux, France. Those who attended her—including three of her older sisters by birth—were living in the company of one of God's saints, one prepared for our times. This volume, St. Thérèse of Lisieux: Her Last Conversations, serves as a sequel to St. Thérèse's autobiography, Story of a Soul. It contains the intimate words of her final conversations with her three sisters during the last months of her life, especially those three critical months in the Carmel infirmary from July to September 1897. Fortunately for us, her words were written down without the awareness that ...
The story of a soul
"L'Histoire d'une Âme, the spiritual autobiography of Saint Thérèse of Lisieux, is a poignant and luminous account of a young 19th-century French Carmelite nun. This intimate account, written on the orders of her superiors, traces the extraordinary spiritual journey of a simple, loving soul. Born Marie-Françoise-Thérèse Martin in 1873, Thérèse entered the Carmelite convent at Lisieux at the tender age of 15, driven by an ardent love for God. Through the pages of her autobiography, she reveals her "little way" to holiness, a revolutionary approach to the spiritual life based on absolute trust in God's merciful love. Thérèse shares her mystical experiences, inner struggles and moment...
The Poetry of St. Therese of Lisieux
Despite their importance, the poems of St. Thérèse of Lisieux are among the least known of her writings, previously available only in highly edited selections. Here for the first time in English is the complete collection of Thérèse's poetry, faithfully translated from the French critical edition by Donald Kinney, O.C.D. Also included are a preface by Jean Guitton, a general introduction to Thérèse's spiritual and poetic development, 6 photos, and individual introductions to each of the poems, indicating its background and significance. The volume closes with the French text of the poems and a fully linked index to their major themes and images. Together with the ICS Publications editions of Thérèse of Lisieux's Story of a Soul, Last Conversations, Letters, Plays, and Prayers, this is an indispensible work for all those who love the life and spiritual message of "the greatest saint of modern times."
The Plays of Saint Thérèse of Lisieux
Over a period of about three years toward the end of her life, St. Therese of Lisieux (1873-1897) was asked by her Carmelite superiors to compose eight theatrical pieces for special occasions in her convent. She did not consider them mere trivial amusements. On the contrary, Therese invested herself wholeheartedly in the writing and performance of these little dramas, which provided a welcome opportunity to articulate her growing spiritual insights and share them with her religious community. Here we find echoes of her great themes, some where developed at greater length than anywhere else in her writings: Mary of Nazareth and Joan of Arc, humility and the little way, confidence and love, an...
