Publisher's Synopsis

Prosper Louis Pascal Guéranger (1805-1875), in founding the Abbaye Saint-Pierre de Solesmes, reestablished within its walls the observation of the Rule of Saint Benedict, half a century after its previous community, the Congregation of Saint Maur, had been destroyed in the French Revolution. Dom Guéranger was soon to be hailed as the restorer of the Order of Saint Benedict, not only in France, but in the British Isles as well. The remoteness of his abbatial retreat did not prevent him from making his voice heard "on the housetops". Combining the scholarly tradition of the Maurists with a renewed sense of the liturgical life, which has had a profound influence far beyond the walls of the cloister, Dom Guéranger wrote prolifically across the disciplines of history and philosophy in defence of the Church and her traditions.
