Abstract
This dissertation presents a portion of the first complete English translation of the writings of Saint Rafael Arnáiz Barón, the first canonized saint of the Trappist order. Prepared in collaboration with Cistercian Publications and Our Lady of the Angels Monastery in Crozet, Virginia, the translation seeks to facilitate further study of Saint Rafael’s life and writings, which speak to the spiritual dimensions of war, disease, isolation, and grief. Translated with an eye toward the Trappist vows of obedience, stability, and conversion, this edition was prepared for a devotional audience, but also refers the reader to resources for further academic study throughout.
