On the Eminent Dignity of the Poor in the Church: A Sermon by Jacques Bénigne Bossuet

On the Eminent Dignity of the Poor in the Church: A Sermon by Jacques Bénigne Bossuet

via.library.depaul.edu

Jacques Benigne Bossuet gave this public sermon at Vincent de Paul’s request in 1659. It was written during a time of unprecedented poverty, when the French government was forcing the poor into institutions.

The rich have all the privileges and advantages of the world, but the kingdom of God and the Church belong to the poor. This is because Jesus...

Thomas Carlyle: extreme right ferment

Writing in 1913, Louis Cazamian respectfully lionized Thomas Carlyle as a canonical giant of English letters with a staunchly Juvenalian satirical verve. Today, one century later, it is no longer a reasonable option to admire Carlyle without misgivings that add up to damning reservations. With th...

The world's most misunderstood novel
