Product Description
In Solitude and Dialogue: Contemporary Franciscan Theologize. ANTHONY M. CARROZZO, O.F.M
Seven articles explore different aspects of the contemplative experience of contemporary Franciscan theology. The foundation for the essays is Francis’s Rule for Hermitages; the texts emerged from the desire of mature Franciscans to describe the call to pray in community and share their own intellectual journeys. Contributors include R. Duffy, OFM.; J. Mueller, OSF; J. Burkhard, OFM Conv.; and G. Ühlein, OSF.
Francis's Rule for Hermitages offers Franciscan scholars a theological method. It can be a model for Franciscan theologians, a call to gather, to pray in community, to dine together, to explore thoughts, feelings, and desires for contemporary Franciscan life based upon their own intellectual journeys into God ... This book came to be precisely out of such a process--the desire to gather a group of mature Franciscans to share their personal knowledge and contemplative experience of contemporary Franciscan theology. We wanted to remain true to our heritage, but we could not simply transport it into our postmodern world. While the truths might be the same, the issues certainly are not.
