Description

A publication of Blessed Alonso de Orozco (1500-1591) is an opportunity to make known an outstanding writer of devotional literature in the Spanish Golden Age. He was an Augustinian friar who witnessed the renascence of the Augustinian Order in Spain. In his own time he made himself known by his sermons and the books on spirituality which he wrote, in the purest Spanish, covering the various problems encountered in Christian life. He teaches the science of prayer. He is a catechist who reflects profoundly on the mystery and ministry of God’s word. He tries to instruct Christians and help them to be truly Christian. The English translation of the “Confesiones del Beato Alonso de Orozco” is based on the 1892 edition which was printed in Manila, the Philippines. Other editions followed. In 1991, to commemorate the 400th anniversary of Blessed Alonso de Orozco’s death, this first edition in English appeared.
