The Imitation of Christ Illustrated With Illumina
The following report compares books using the SERCount Rating (base on the result count from the search engine).
Rating: 5/5 from 2 reviews A Classic with Art!The most widely read Christian book after the Bible now has glorious medieval illustrations on every page that complement the profound meditations by Thomas A Kempis. A wonderful book for spiritual reading, and also as a beautiful gift book. Divided up by several thematic spiritual topics, this book is great for just quiet meditation on how to better imitate Christ in our daily lives, and the pictures offer great images for helping the meditation. Just a handsome book all around. One of the best editions of this classic by A Kempis I have ever seen. Very highly recommended! Breathtaking!What a magnificent presentation of a magnificent book. The text here is the Challoner 1737 translation (the Douay Bible translation was Challoner's also) which is so beautiful and devotional and which fits perfectly with the incredible art on each page. This is not a large coffee-table-type book; it is meant to be used, to be prayed with, and even to be taken into church to read before the Blessed Sacrament. Breathtaking...magnificent...beautiful...devotional: Ignatius Press has truly outdone themselves here. Don't miss out on this version of the "Imitation of Christ." | ||||||||||||||||||||
