doesn't have to be this way. Using the straight-forward principles

saving lives-and lots of them. You'll learn; PRINCIPLES for
approaching and talking to anyone without fear or intimidation and
with total confidence; STRATEGIES to approach and talk to people

even a formal theological background; TECHNIQUES for answering
difficult questions, and; PROVEN OUTREACH METHODS for how to share
the gospel with anyone-from Muslims to Atheist, from Scientists to
even your neighbors.
Focusing on the theory and practice of Cistercian persuasion, the
articles gathered in this volume offer historical, literary
critical and anthropological perspectives on Caesarius of
Heisterbach's Dialogus Miraculorum (thirteenth century), the
context of its production and other texts directly or indirectly
inspired by it. The exempla inserted by Caesarius into a didactic
dialogue between a monk and a novice survived for many centuries
and travelled across the seas thanks to rewritings and translations
into vernacular languages. An accomplished example of the art of
persuasion -medieval and early modern- the Dialogus Miraculorum
establishes a link not only between the monasteries, the mendicant
circles and other religious congregations but also between the
Middle Ages and Modernity, the Old and the New World. Contributors
are: Jacques Berlioz, Elisa Brilli, Daniele Dehouve, Pierre-Antoine
Fabre, Marie Formarier, Jasmin Margarete Hlatky, Elena Koroleva,
Nathalie Luca, Brian Patrick McGuire, Stefano Mula, Marie Anne Polo
de Beaulieu, Victoria Smirnova, and Anne-Marie Turcan-Verkerk.
