Om den här ljudboken
Hear Thomas Merton’s spiritually edifying voice.
Originally recorded in August of 1965 at the Abbey of Our Lady of Gethsemani, “Greek Tragedy: Suffering Leads to Wisdom” considers the parallels between ancient Greek models of suffering (with Sophocles’s playAntigoneas an exponent) and Judeo-Christian ideas about suffering and the creation of meaning. This was among the last classes that Merton ever gave to the novice monks at Gethsemani.
Now You Know Media—through its exclusive partnership with the Merton Legacy Trust and the Thomas Merton Center—is proud to offer a wide selection of archival recordings of Thomas Merton: a Trappist monk, great twentieth-century mystic, and beloved author of the 1948 autobiography,The Seven Storey Mountain.
As “Greek Tragedy: Suffering Leads to Wisdom” attests, Merton was also a teacherpar excellencewho guided his students with wit, wisdom, and a wealth of knowledge.
