St. Angela Merici and the Ursulines is a historical book written by Bernard O'Reilly in 1880. The book provides a detailed account of the life of St. Angela Merici, an Italian Roman Catholic saint, and the establishment of the Ursuline Order of nuns. The book begins by introducing the life of St. Angela Merici, who was born in 1474 in Desenzano, Italy. It describes her early life, her spiritual journey, and her founding of the Company of St. Ursula in 1535. The Company was dedicated to the education of young girls and the care of the sick and the poor. The book then goes on to describe the growth of the Ursuline Order under St. Angela's leadership, and the challenges the nuns faced as they sought to expand their mission. It also provides a detailed account of the Ursuline nuns' work in Italy, France, and other parts of Europe, as well as their involvement in the Counter-Reformation.Throughout the book, O'Reilly provides a vivid portrayal of St. Angela Merici and the Ursuline nuns, highlighting their deep faith, their dedication to education and social justice, and their unwavering commitment to serving others. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Catholic Church, the development of religious orders, and the role of women in the church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
