reviewed Saint Thomas More: Selected Writings on July 27, 2015 Saint Thomas More: Selected Writings
Extraordinary book. Most of this is More's masterpiece, "The Sadness of Christ," an incredibly rich reading and reflection on Jesus' last night and the road from Gethsemani to Golgotha. Even if you just read the gospels as sheer literature and nothing else, you'd be crazy to miss this. It's a penetrating work of literary criticism, but more than that, a beautiful spiritual reflection -- in More's own words, a meditation on how "the best and kindest of physicians chose to experience sadness, dread, weariness, and fear of tortures and thus to show by these very real signs of human frailty that He was really a man."
More wrote mostly in Latin, but the translation here is fresh.
Couldn't recommend the book more highly.
