Description: THE LORDby Romano GuardiniTranslated from the German by Elinor Castendyk BriefsPublished by Henry Regnery Company, Chicago, 1954. First English Edition, First Printing. Ex-Church-Library book with usual stamps and markings. Very good hardcover, in good dustjacket, dj has tears, tape repairs and sticker wound to spine. Tight binding, solid spine, clean unmarked text, rubbing wear to edges, some tape residue to boards. 8vo, 535 pages. The renowned study of the life and ministry of Jesus Christ by the 20th century German-Italian theologian and philosopher.The only true and unedited telling of the life of Christ, his life and times, in historical context, but not lacking the psychology behind his physical being and spirit. Unlike other books seeking to strip Jesus' story to reveal only the human being, Romano Guardini's The Lord gives the complete story of Jesus Christ as man, Holy Ghost, and Creator. Pope Benedict XVI lauds Guardini's work as providing a full understanding of the Son of God, away from the prejudice that rationality engenders. Put long-held myths aside and discover the entire truth about God's only begotten Son.There are many commentaries on the Bible ... but none that I have read can compare with the thoughtfulness and intimacy of The Lord, by Romano Guardini. Although Monsignor Guardini clearly and frequently states that no one can ever fully know or psychoanalyze Christ, Monsignor Guardini presents a rich and almost overwhelming meditation on both the natural man and the supernatural Son of God - who Is God. The book is beautifully written; each paragraph truly is a meditation that one should encounter slowly and frequently. Loc: E18
