Thomas Merton, the Trappist monk who died in 1968, was one of the great spiritual writers of the twentieth century. His published works include a hundred volumes in many genres. But it was perhaps in the essay that he found his natural element. Especially in the last decade of his life, Merton showed in his essays an increasing willingness to dispense with pre-fabricated conclusions, bringing his deeply spiritual, profoundly Catholic sensibility to bear on matters beyond the usual religious and monastic milieu. This volume is the first to provide a broad cross-section of Merton s work as an essayist, collecting pieces that reflect characteristic examples of his astonishing output and the fantastic breadth of his interests. The 33 essays collected here range from interreligious dialogue to racial justice, from the wisdom of the desert fathers to the novels of Faulkner and Camus, from the nuclear threat to the philosophy of solitude, and throughout, the centrality of the Christian mystery to authentic human identity.

An autobiography of a one-time Trappist monk who, in 1948, at the age of 23, entered Gethsemani Abbey, New Haven, Ky., where Thomas Merton was already living, this book reveals an alien world where three fish, a lemon cake, a bottle of Bordeaux and a transistor radio blaring Elvis Presley's Return to Sender on Christmas day is almost decadent in its luxury. Gethsemani "appealed to me as a kind of training ground for death," says Groves, who portrays his life thereafter with the detachment that would come from such appeal. Only when he writes of Merton, "a major influence on my spiritual formation," does the book convey passion. He describes himself, variously, as a "tepid Catholic," as a believer "absolutely, in God, heaven, and the Catholic Church," and as a doubter who often asks himself the question, "Why in the name of heaven did I come here?" After two decades, he left the cloister; he now teaches Latin and literary criticism at the University of South Carolina. Copyright 1988 Reed Business Information, Inc.

Thomas Merton (1915-1968) was one of the most influential spiritual writers of modern times. A Trappist monk, peace and civil rights activist, and widely-praised literary figure, Merton was renowned for his pioneering work in contemplative spirituality, his quest to understand Eastern thought and integrate it with Western spirituality, and his firm belief in Christian activism. His autobiography, The Seven Storey Mountain, is the defining spiritual memoir of its time, selling over one million copies and translating into over fifteen languages.Merton was also one of the most prolific and provocative letter writers of the twentieth century. His letters (those written both by him and to him), archived at the Thomas Merton Studies Center at Bellarmine University in Louisville, Kentucky, number more than ten thousand. For Merton, letters were not just a vehicle for exchanging information, but his primary means for initiating, maintaining, and deepening relationships. Letter-writing was a personal act of self-revelation and communication. His letters offer a unique lens through which we relive the spiritual and social upheavals of the twentieth century, while offering wisdom that is still relevant for our world today.
