From the back cover:
Philip Neri is one of the most lovable and popular saints, a “St Francis of modern times”. Christian humanist, practical joker and one of the Church’s great contemplatives, he had such an impact on the degenerate Rome of his day that he quickly became a leading figure of the recovery of Christian spirituality and culture that we associate with the Counter Reformation.
He has been described as “the Christian Socrates” for his gentle friendship with the young, and as the “Apostle of Rome” for his success in drawing multitudes of people from all strata of society to a living practice of their faith.
Philip Neri: The Fire of Joy draws on the most recent scholarship to paing a vivid, brilliant portrait of one of the most attractive and inspiring figures of Christianity.
Fr Paul Turks (the author) was one of the founders of the Aachen Oratory, and as Apostolic Visitor helped the Toronto Oratory in many ways. Fr Daniel Utrecht (the translator) is a member of the Toronto Oratory. |
