The various spiritual classics of
Fr. Marin de Boylesve, S.J. (1813-1892)
How this project started: I recently discovered one of the few books by this French priest that was translated into English: "Little Month of Saint Joseph" and found such unique spiritual insights so simply expressed in this devotional booklet I had to publish it.
Looking
into his life, he was an amazing priest, one true Traditional Jesuit,
the kind that gave fiery sermons and cared about the salvation of souls
and the glory of God. He is still known in French circles for helping
to spread devotion to the Sacred Heart and thereby supported the
construction of the Sacre Coeur basilica in Paris.
I
also found out he was from the Vendeé, that blessed region of France
that resisted the Masonic French Revolutionaries. The people of
Brittany and the Vendeé areas supported the Catholic King and gave their
lives for the Faith despite the horrific persecution from the
Revolutionary soldiers. The Vendeans suffered in brutal, genocidal
ways, arguably, the likes of which would not be seen in Europe until
Hitler and his concentration camps.
Patriotic
to the core, this courageous Catholic zeal of the Vendeé and the spirit
of St. Ignatius is ever present in Fr. de Boylesve's books. Someone
told me you would never know they were written in the 19th century, they
sound as if they were written for our dark times today when we need
such spiritual encouragement, and it is true. I had to see if
there were other books, and yes, quite a few that were never translated
into English, which is now my latest project!
