Bag om The Life Of Jean-Jacques Olier

The Life of Jean-Jacques Olier: Founder of the Seminary of St. Sulpice is a book written by Edward Healy Thompson and published in 1885. The book is a biography of Jean-Jacques Olier, a French Catholic priest who founded the Society of St. Sulpice, a seminary for the training of priests. The book provides a detailed account of Olier's life, from his birth in 1608 to his death in 1657. It covers his early years as a student in Paris, his ordination as a priest, and his work as a pastor in various parishes. The book also delves into Olier's spiritual journey, including his encounter with the writings of St. Francis de Sales and his development of a deep devotion to the Eucharist.The main focus of the book, however, is Olier's founding of the Seminary of St. Sulpice. Thompson describes the challenges Olier faced in establishing the seminary, including opposition from the French hierarchy and financial difficulties. The book also explores the unique approach to priestly formation that Olier developed at St. Sulpice, which emphasized the importance of personal holiness and pastoral care.Overall, The Life of Jean-Jacques Olier provides a comprehensive and engaging account of the life and work of a significant figure in Catholic history. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Church, the development of seminary education, or the spiritual life of priests.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
