FERMOR, Patrick Leigh [95] pp. John Murray 1957 8 3/4" x 5 5/8" Jacket design by Peter Todd Mitchell w/ 4 half-tone plates w/ photographic illustrations recto-and-verso after M. le Cur Bretocq and Joan Eyres Monsell, and 3 section-title vignettes after John Craxton In A Time to Keep Silence, Leigh Fermor writes about a more inward journey, describing his several sojourns in some of Europe's oldest and most venerable monasteries. He stays at the Abbey of St. Wandrille, a great repository of art and learning; at Solesmes, famous for its revival of Gregorian chant; and at the deeply ascetic Trappist monastery of La Grande Trappe, where monks take a vow of silence. Finally, he visits the rock monasteries of Cappadocia, hewn from the stony spires of a moonlike landscape, where he seeks some trace of the life of the earliest Christian anchorites. More than a history or travel journal, however, this beautiful short book is a meditation on the meaning of silence and solitude for modern life. Leigh Fermor writes, In the seclusion of a cell an existence whose quietness is only varied by the silent meals, the solemnity of ritual, and long solitary walks in the woods the troubled waters of the mind grow still and clear, and much that is hidden away and all that clouds it floats to the surface and can be skimmed away; and after a time one reaches a state of peace that is unthought of in the ordinary world. More than a history or travel journal, however, this beautiful short book is a meditation on the meaning of silence and solitude for modern life.

London, John Murray, 1957. 8vo. Original crimson cloth, upper board and spine lettered in gilt, dustwrapper with design after Peter Todd Mitchell (not price-clipped); pp. 95; 4 half-tone plates with photographic illustrations recto-and-verso after M. le Curà Bretocq and Joan Eyres Monsell, and 3 section-title vignettes after John Craxton; dustwrapper with a little marginal abrasures at head and tail of spine, gift inscription; a very good copy. First trade edition. A collection of three pieces on monasteries and monasticism: 'The Abbey of St Wandrille de Fontanelle', 'From Solesmes to La Grande Trappe', 'The Rock Monasteries of Cappadocia', followed by a 'Postscript' which considers the history of the English Benedictine Congregation and its peregrinations through Europe, and Byzantine monasticism. First published in The Cornhill in 1949 under the title 'A Monastery', the first and longest piece collected here is Patrick Leigh Fermor's account of his residence at l'Abbaye de St Wandrille de Fontanelle in north-west France, which recounts the history of the Benedictine abbey founded in 649 by St Wandrille and provides a typically erudite assessment of the role of monasticism in European intellectual life, together with his own personal reaction to the spiritual discipline and structure of monastic life under the Rule of St Benedict: 'Worship, then, and prayer are the raison d'être of the Benedictine order; and anything else, even their great achievements as scholars and architects and doctors of the church, is subsidiary. They were, however, for centuries the only guardians of literature, the classics, scholarship and the humanities in a world of which the confusion can best be compared to our own atomic era. For a long period, after the great epoch of Benedictine scholarship at Cluny, the Maurist Benedictine Abbey of St. Germain-des-Pràs was the most important residuary of learning and science in Europe -- only a few ivy-clad ruins remain, just visible between zazou suits and existentialist haircuts from the terrace of the Deux Magots. But in scores of abbeys all over Europe, the same liberal traditions survive and prosper. Other by-products of their life were the beautiful buildings in which I was living, and the unparalleled calm that prevailed there. At St Wandrille I was inhabiting at last a tower of solid ivory, and I, not the monks, was the escapist. For my hosts, the Abbey was a springboard into eternity; for me a retiring place to write a book and spring more effectively back into the maelstrom. Strange that the same habitat should prove favourable to ambitions so glaringly opposed' (pp. 34-35). The second and third pieces were written later and describe Trappist and Byzantine monasticism, and the three pieces were first published together in 1953 in a limited edition issued by the Queen Anne Press. The text was then revised by the author for publication in this first trade edition, issued by John Murray in May 1957. As Artemis Cooper comments in Patrick Leigh Fermor: An Adventure (London: 2012), 'Almost none of his subsequent writings show anything like the same level of introspection, and certain passages seem to yearn for a deeper spiritual experience, like a thirsty man in the desert gazing at at what might be an oasis or a mirage. For the monks the oasis was very real but for Paddy, in spite of his yearnings, it remained a mirage. Yet the weeks he spent in these French monasteries had made a profound impression' (p. 235).

First edition of the author's third book, regarding his experiences in various monasteries. Octavo, original blue cloth. Illustrated by John Craxton. Association copy, inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper, "Mary Anna with love from Paddy 2.6.88." The recipient, Mary Anna Marten (with her bookplate to the inside gutter), was the daughter of the 3rd and last Lord Alington of Crichel and later trustee of The British Museum. Near fine in the original dust jacket with light rubbing and wear. Jacket design by Peter Todd Mitchell. In A Time to Keep Silence, Leigh Fermor writes about a more inward journey, describing his several sojourns in some of Europeâs oldest and most venerable monasteries. He stays at the Abbey of St. Wandrille, a great repository of art and learning; at Solesmes, famous for its revival of Gregorian chant; and at the deeply ascetic Trappist monastery of La Grande Trappe, where monks take a vow of silence. Finally, he visits the rock monasteries of Cappadocia, hewn from the stony spires of a moonlike landscape, where he seeks some trace of the life of the earliest Christian anchorites. More than a history or travel journal, however, this beautiful short book is a meditation on the meaning of silence and solitude for modern life. Leigh Fermor writes, âIn the seclusion of a cellâ"an existence whose quietness is only varied by the silent meals, the solemnity of ritual, and long solitary walks in the woodsâ"the troubled waters of the mind grow still and clear, and much that is hidden away and all that clouds it floats to the surface and can be skimmed away; and after a time one reaches a state of peace that is unthought of in the ordinary world.â "More than a history or travel journal, however, this beautiful short book is a meditation on the meaning of silence and solitude for modern life" (New York Review of Books). "His shortest book (and to my mind his best)its hammered terseness is a good match for the sobriety of the subject" (Anthony Lane, The New Yorker).
