"Benedict's Rule: A Translation and Commentary" is the first
line-by-line exegesis of the entire Rule of Benedict written
originally in English. This full commentary - predominately a
literary and historical criticism - is based on and includes a new
translation, and is accompanied by essays on Benedict's spiritual
doctrine.
A monk who has striven to live according to the Rule of Benedict
for thirty-five years, Father Kardong relates it to modern monastic
life while examining the sources (Cassian, Augustine, and Basil)
Benedict used to establish his Rule. Overviews - summaries of
notes, source criticism, or structural criticism - follow some
chapters, and a large bibliography of the current scholarship and
source references are also included. "Benedict's Rule: A
Translation and Commentary" also includes the Latin text of the
"Regula Benedicti."This reference work is invaluable to libraries
and to those who are called to interpret the Rule. It will be
opened again and again. Indexed.
