Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an influential and compelling addition to the body of work on the Catholic Church's rules surrounding fasting. It traces the history of past interpretations of the relevant texts, and then goes on to scrutinize many of the common assumptions that are made by the laypeople and even clergy today. The author presents an extensive examination of the Church's intentions when the fast days were initially instituted, and how those intentions have been distorted over time. The author then provides a careful and in-depth re-examination of the source texts, providing a well-reasoned defense of each conclusion. This book will easily find its place among the most important works on Catholic fasting tradition. Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
