I just started [i]Perfectae Caritatis[/i]. I'm hoping to get my hands on Stephen Long's [i]Natura Pura[/i], but it's really expensive ($52 on Amazon!).

My goals for the summer...

Finish...

[i]A Primer on the Absolute Primacy of Christ[/i] by Fr. Maximilian Mary Dean, FI
[i]Spirit of the Liturgy[/i] by Cardinal Ratzinger
[i]Theology of History in St. Bonaventure[/i] by Cardinal Ratzinger
[i]The Glory of the Lord [/i]by Hans Urs von Balthasar

Reread...

[i]The Mariology of Bl. John Duns Scotus[/i] by Fr. Ruggero Rossini, OFM

Start (and hopefully finish!)

[i]Treasure in Clay[/i] by Fulton J. Sheen
[i]He Leadeth Me[/i] by Walter Ciszek, SJ


It's a little ambitious I think, considering I've hardly read anything in the past year... Well, hardly anything that isn't phatmass posts and blogs and such things. :lol: But, I figure if it's too ambitious, I'll still be likely to read more than if I wasn't ambitious enough, even if I don't finish everything.

Ooooo -- nice list, zunshynn!

:clapping:

I admit, I'm even a little envious of the books you'll be reading and all that you'll be learning! ;)

Once I have some financial things taken care of, I really want to get [i]A Primer on the Absolute Primacy of Christ[/i] by Fr. Maximilian Mary Dean, FI. :woot:

Im 3/4 of the way through Treasure in Clay and I would love to read either book by Walter Ciszek! Have you read With God in Russia, and if so how was it?

I have not read With God in Russia... I decided to read He Leadeth Me first because it's my understanding that he talks more about his spiritual growth and his relationship with God in that one, whereas With God in Russia is more just describing his ordeals.

A Primer is really, really, REALLY good. I don't think you'll be disappointed. :)

I want [i]Three Ages[/i] SO badly. :lol: I read bits while in the convent, and one of our priests (who taught multiple classes for us) liked to quote Garrigou-Lagrange a lot, in particular this book. :woot:

Oh!! Oh, [i]excellent[/i]!! Garrigou-Lagrange is [i]an amazing[/i] Thomist. He is the master of Grace-- I'm excited that he's used. Unfortunately there are few that adhere to his (and a few others') interpretation of Thomas (which is the traditional one). So many lose the distinction between the natural and supernatural orders... and thus also lose the true importance of grace...

Steven Long is another one.

Anywho, I'm absolutely [i]loving[/i] 'Three Ages.' I wish I had a hard copy of it, 'cause I'm not a huge fan of reading things online. But, oh well.
