Excerpt from Convent Life: Or the Duties of Sisters Dedicated in Religion to the Service of God; Intended Chiefly for Superiors and Confessors
The old Canon Law arranged most of the duties of Religious and defined their scope. In more recent times, many improve ments and changes in the Church's discipline relative to Conventual life have been found necessary, and on this account, in reconciling the old with the new state of things, many difficulties present themselves to those who have to deal conscientiously with these matters.

Excerpt from Convent Life: Or the Duties of Sisters Dedicated in Religion to the Service of God; Intended Chiefly for Superiors and Confessors
What I have proposed to myself, in writing this work, has been to explain, from a doctrinal point of view, the duties and obligations of the Religious Life in all its bearings and principles.
Religious, like Seculars, desire to have solid and definite teaching in regard to their obligations, so that their souls may be properly sustained in acquiring evangelical perfection. And, it seems to me, that there is room for a work of this kind, a work that will explain briefly and clearly the obligations of the Religious State and that will offer a succint analysis of doctrinal teaching on the various important matters in connection with that state.
We have in Latin, in French, in Italian and Spanish, many well digested works which explain these duties very fully and with great accuracy, but we have few works of the kind in English. We have, it is true, plenty of spiritual and ascetical works suitable for Religious, but none which define for us the exact law of the Gospel according to the maxim: hoc oportet facere et illud non omttere. In trying to supply this want, I have had to read many works of Theology and Canon Law treating on this subject and to condense the opinions of others wiser than myself.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book meticulously explores the duties of nuns and sisters, focusing on their obligations by reason of their state and the vows they take. Drawing from theological and canonical teachings, the author provides a comprehensive overview of the Religious State, encompassing its origins, nature, and the different kinds of approbation. It delves into the obligations of the religious vowsâ"poverty, chastity, and obedienceâ"and their implications for daily life. The intricate relationship between the Rule and the vows is also examined, as are the various aspects of convent life, including enclosure, profession, and the role of superiors and officials. This insightful guide not only elucidates the duties of Religious but also sheds light on the profound significance and rewards of a life dedicated to God.
