Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich |
 |
Ven. Emmerich (1774-1824), an Augustinian nun who carried the stigmata, the Wounds of Christ, spent her entire life in a small area in Germany. Yet, through her incredible mystical experiences, she was as knowledgeable about the Holy Land as any "expert" before or after her. Graced by God to live long periods of time without any food or water, subsisting on the Holy Eucharist alone, Ven. Emmerich may be one of the most important mystics in the history of the Church. |

Ven. Emmerich's account of the Passion and Death of Our Lord Jesus Christ, while faithful to the Bible, is heart-rending, edifying and surprising -- because of its intimate detail. Based on the visions of this great mystic, The Dolorous Passion recounts in incredible detail the horrendous sufferings undergone by our Saviour in His (it would seem) superhumanly heroic act of Redemption. Illuminating in its description of Mary's participation in the sufferings of her Son, this book gives the reader a poignant understanding of why Our Lady is sometimes called our "Co-Redemtrix." The Dolorous Passion is a singular book that conveys a lasting impression of the terrible agony of Our Lord's suffering for us. Here is a book that will melt a heart of stone! A tremendous source of meditative thought for Lent.
Taken from the Visions of Anne Catherine Emmerich has become a classic in Catholic literature. Based on the mystic visions of the Venerable Emmerich (1774-1824), a German Augustinian nun from Dülman, it focuses first on the ancestry of the Blessed Virgin Mary, then on her childhood and early life, next on her life with Jesus and St. Joseph at Nazareth -- though it does not include the Public Ministry of Christ. Thereafter the narrative picks up following the Passion and Death of Our Lord. Characteristic of all the writings of the visions and revelations of Anne Catherine Emmerich is a beautiful, holy aura that seems to surround and pervade everything she says (most readers sense this aspect of her work from the very first pages); and this work is typical of Sister Emmerich's works in this regard. This book is filled with unusual, saintly descriptions that are not recorded in the Gospel story -- descriptions that supplement and illustrate the Biblical narrative in a way that makes the actual Scripture passages truly come alive. The Life of the Blessed Virgin Mary will richly reward the reader with insights he could never gain from any other source and is a book he will remember all his life. This volume focuses on the life of the Mother of Jesus Christ, the Blessed Virgin Mary. Powerful and thought provoking.
This is the remarkable story of the newly Beatified Bl. Anne Catherine Emmerich, as told by Fr. Carl. E. Schmöger, C.SS.R. Fr. Schmöger, with access to the journals of Clement Brentano, as well as the extensive ecclesiastical archives, provides some of the most powerful and moving testimony of the power and majesty of Almighty God that is found in Church writing. This work provides marvelous insight into the life and suffering of one victim soul.
