by Sr. Mary Clemente Davlin, OPISBN: 978-1-59907-031-5 About the Book A Journey into Love: Meditating with Piers Plowman is a small gathering of passages from the fourteenth-century poem, Piers Plowman, with brief commentary and thoughtful questions for private meditation or group discussion, and with beautiful photographic illustrations from art and architecture which are from the poet's own time. The poem, a masterpiece of English literature, is now little known to the people for whom it was presumably written--those who want new insight into how to "do well" and come to know God as Love. Written well before the Reformation, it belongs to both Catholics and Protestants because they had not yet divided; it praises Jews and hopes for the salvation of all people. |

It is based in a commitment to scripture and a belief in the potential for imagery to explore ambiguity.
Panim el Panim offers twelve weekly responses to Torah, beautiful works of art and inspired affirmations of the potential for Visual Midrash. As a companion on a journey of self-discovery, the imagery becomes a guide for mediation. Whatever your spiritual orientation or ideology, visual midrash lets the ear hear and the eye see the simple beauty of Torah. buy from amazon.com |
