Beskrivelse
Praise for Man of Blessing'The difference with Butcher's book is the exploration of Benedict's unusual life; his relationship with his twin sister, Scholastica; and the illumination of the saint's miracles. The book's readability will make it easy for patrons to escape into late Roman Culture and find peace in monastic simplicity.' -Library Journal starred review'This remarkable book is a delightful blend of legend and solid history.' -Sr. Lenora Black OSB, Spirit & Life'Throughout the book [Butcher]interweaves some good research that expands the context of Benedict's world and adds dimension to his character.' -American Benedictine Review'Butcher's life of St. Benedict is an excellent example of modern hagiography, written with imagination in a contemporary style based on historical facts and tradition.' -Catholic Library World
