Together, the three books in this series incorporate all 350 of James Tissot's paintings of the life of Jesus, themselves largely inspired by his reading of the visions of Emmerich in the late 1800s, as well as new material, some translated for the first time from Clemens Brentano's original notes of the visions. On the basis of comprehensive chronological and geographic studies by Fr. Helmut Fahsel and Dr. Robert Powell, the years of Jesus's ministry are presented as a day-by-day chronicle, and appendices supplied illustrating how this was achieved. Brief summaries offer a preview of most days of the ministry to prepare readers before they embark upon the more extensive version in the full text. A Dramatis Personae provides separate short articles--drawn from the visions and supplemented by translations from the recently published notebooks of Clemens Brentano--on the lives of the Apostles, of Lazarus and his friends, and of the Holy Women, as well as an account of the Enemies and Adversaries of Jesus. But this is not all. Fr. Fahsel had 42 detailed maps drawn especially for his work, Der Wandel Jesu in der Welt (1942), depicting in minute detail the daily movements of Jesus during his teaching journeys according to Anne Catherine's visions, which are here translated and updated. A gazeteer of places shown on the maps has also been included, as well as an extensive, cumulative index of proper names, places, and events referencing all three volumes, making this vast work more readily accessible for further study and research. In addition to the paintings of James Tissot, Angelico selected from late 19th-century travelogues of the Holy Land more than 100 etchings and drawings. The Holy Land at that time had been so little altered by the march of history that these illustrations give the reader a real sense of "accompanying" Jesus during his travels. Over the years many have attested to the transformative power of these visions, and Anne Catherine was beatified on Oct. 3, 2004 by Pope John Paul II. It is the editor's hope that these visions--so engaging as an historical narrative, so illustrative of the gospel stories, so replete with inspired spiritual insight--may open a gateway, for the many who have in modern times fallen away from any connection with the life and teaching of Jesus, to the earthly garden where the Spirit bloomed, and blossoms still.

The German Mystic born in the latter part of the Eighteenth Century, Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich, was privledged by Almighty God with sensory visions disclosing the earthly life of God Incarnate, of His Holy Mother, the Virgin Mary and of the progression of salvation history from Genesis to the Apocalypse. In this short book, the reader will find a carefully collated set of rosary meditations faithfully drawn from the texts of these visions. Meditations taken directly from our saint's writings are provided for every bead of the rosary, allowing you to ponder at greater depth the secrets revealed to Blessed Anne Catherine and enable you to truly immerse yourself in the marvelous historical events which occurred in the life of Our Divine Redeemer and His Holy Mother. This work is a work of prayer and was revised multiple times in order to offer golden nuggets of contemplative material in every bead of Our Lady's Psalter.For the benefit of the reader, meditations have also been offered, once again, drawn entirely from Our Saint's writings, for the Mysteries of Light, which are popular among many Catholics, as well as five additional mysteries, entitled "the Hopeful Mysteries", which cover events in Salvation History and in the life of Our Blessed Mother prior to the Incarnation. Blessed Anne offers a wealth of detail for each of these mysteries and these details have been collated for you in this short volume."A Retreat in a Book"--Rev. Fr. Daniel Weatherley (Sub Dean of St. George's Cathedral, Southwark)"I was very impressed with Fr Higgins' collation of Blessed Anne's writings, these Rosary Meditations are among the best I have come across, there is often enough contained in one bead's meditation to cover the entire decade, and so it is a book one can return to again and again"--James Stubbs Esq. (Lay leader and Catholic Politician)"A great preaching resource for the Mysteries of the Rosary"--Rev. Fr James Cadman (International speaker and parish mission giver)

The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ is based on the detailed visions of Our Lord's passion and death as seen by Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich (1774-1824), a German Augustinian nun, and recorded by Clemens Brentano, a prominent literary figure of the day. This book has been inspiring thousands since it first appeared in 1833; it is one of the most used texts for Lenten devotion, and most notably, it was the inspiration for Mel Gibson's film ThePassion of the Christ. This newly-bound leatherette edition, with gilded pages, a ribbon marker, and burnishing and gold foiling on the cover, is truly worthy of its contents and will withstand long, devoted use. A saintly person from her youth and a great mystic and victim soul, Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich was privileged by God with nearly a lifetime of ecstatic visions revealing all the events of Our Lord's suffering and death; visions that we understand in hindsight were a great gift from God to the world. Her account of the passion and death of Our Lord Jesus Christ is faithful to the Bible, heart-rending, edifying, and surprising because of its intimate detail. The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ recounts with incredible precision the horrendous sufferings undergone by our Savior in His sacrificial act of Redemption. Its illuminative description of Mary's participation in the sufferings of her Son gives the reader a poignant understanding of why Our Lady is often called our "Co-Redemptrix" and "Queen of Martyrs." The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ is a singular book that leaves a lasting impression of the terrible agony of Our Lord, of His infinite love for us that motivated His suffering, and how His passion and death were brought on by each person's sins. Here is a book that gives one a holy conviction just by reading it. Here is a book that will melt a heart of stone
