The Praise of Glory is a book that provides an intimate glimpse into the life and spirituality of Sister Elizabeth of the Trinity, a Carmelite nun who lived in Dijon from 1901 to 1906. The book is a collection of reminiscences and reflections on Sister Elizabeth's life, written by her friend and confidant, Benedict Zimmerman. Through his recollections, Zimmerman offers readers a portrait of a woman who was deeply devoted to her faith and who sought to live a life of contemplation and prayer. The book is divided into four parts, each of which focuses on a different aspect of Sister Elizabeth's life and spirituality. The first part explores her early years and her decision to become a nun. The second part delves into her experiences as a Carmelite, including her struggles and triumphs as she sought to deepen her relationship with God. The third part focuses on Sister Elizabeth's writings, including her letters and spiritual diaries, which offer insights into her thoughts and feelings about her faith. Finally, the fourth part of the book provides a glimpse into the final years of Sister Elizabeth's life, including her battle with illness and her eventual death. Throughout the book, Zimmerman offers readers a rich and detailed portrait of a woman whose life was marked by a deep love of God and a commitment to living a life of service and contemplation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
