Excerpt from The Officium And Miracula Of Richard Rolle Of Hampole
The chief interest in the Office of Richard Rolle and the Miracula lies perhaps in the fact that they together constitute the chief, if not the only source from which we can put together, even in outline, the story of his life. In his writings we find only a few allusions here and there to the actual circumstances of his career. A further interest in the Miracula arises from the fact that we find two of them actually dated.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the life and work of Richard Rolle, a celebrated medieval hermit and writer. It includes the first known written account of his life, and two previously unpublished miracles attributed to Rolle. The author traces the arc of Rolle's fascinating journey from humble beginnings to becoming one of England's most renowned anchors, with a particular focus on the development of his religious beliefs and philosophy. The book explores central themes within Rolle's work, such as his unique brand of mysticism, his devotion to the name of Jesus, and his profound insights into the nature of contemplative life. The author argues that Rolle's influence on later medieval religious thought was profound, reaching far beyond his lifetime.
