Acerca deste livro eletrónico

The Spiritual Combat by Lorenzo Scupoli is a practical guide to the spiritual life, with a message centered on humility, and a goal to defeat individual passions.  The author begins the process with self-evaluation and identifying our internal weaknesses.  He then provides us with the methods to battle these shortcomings and guard against our own evil inclinations.

In 1589, the first edition of Il combattimento spirituale (The Spiritual Combat) appeared and contained thirty-three chapters.  But Scupoli continued to add to the text, and it gradually grew into the current version containing sixty-six chapters.  Since its introduction, four centuries ago, approximately six hundred editions have been published globally.

Scriptoria Books has transcribed this edition word for word from the original text.  It was then edited, formatted, typeset, and proofread through each revision.  Our procedures are not automated.  Our editions are not facsimiles and do not contain OCR interpreted text.  Our books are carefully created new editions of classic works.

He later went to Milan, under the provost St. Andrew Avellino. After many years of active duties he retired into strict seclusion and wrote The Spiritual Combat.
