Were Enlightenment thinkers wrong to reject humility as a \"monkish virtue\" (Hume) arising from a \"slave morality\" (Nietzsche)? Australian theologian Jane Foulcher recovers the counter-cultural reading of humility that marked early Christianity and examines its trajectory at key junctures in the development of Western monasticism. Humility emerges not as a moral virtue achieved by human effort but as a way opened by grace--as a divine \"climate\" (Christian de Chergé) that we are invited to inhabit. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e From fourth-century Egypt to twentieth-century Algeria, via Saint Benedict and Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, Dr. Foulcher's compelling analysis of theology and practice challenges the church to reclaim Christian humility as essential to its life and witness today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jane Foulcher\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0879072555\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780879072551\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Liturgical Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/31\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 354\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.90d","brand":"Jane Foulcher","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43992543559935,"sku":"9780879072551","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7a07d56a-f003-4e01-bb13-e1b13d194629.jpg?v=1683319512","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/reclaiming-humility-volume-255-jane-foulcher-9780879072551","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
