Foreword In our pluralistic age we recognize many traditions have special gifts to make to a rich, well-balanced spirituality for our time. My own life has shown me the spiritual tradition stemming from St. Dominic, like that from his contemporary St. Francis, provides ever fresh insights. No tradition, however, can be understood merely by looking at its origins. We must see it unfold historically in those who have been formed by that tradition in many times and situations and have furthered its development. To know its essential strength, we need to see it tested, undergoing deformations yet recovering and growing. Therefore, I have tried to survey its eight centuries to give some sense of its chronology and its individual personalities, and of the inclusive Dominican Family. I have aimed only to provide a sketch to encourage readers to use the bibliography to explore further, but with regret I have omitted all documentation except to indicate the source of quotations. Translated 1 quotations are mine. I thank Sister Susan Noffke, O.P., Fr. Thomas Donlan, O.P., for encouraging this project and my Provincial, Fr.

    then on, she suffered a mystical crucifixion from Thursday to Saturday morning. From 1664 to 1684 many contradictions arose at the shrine of Laus, especially among the clergy who were Jansenists—priests who were too strict, and who believed that Communion should only be taken once a year. For fifteen years Benoite was under house arrest and was permitted only Sunday Mass. The devil even raised up false visionaries to deceive people. But Benoite’s guardian angel told her: “There will always be trouble at Laus until there are Religious established here.” Benoite was often tormented by the demons in Hell for the sake of conversion of sinners, but she also was very familiar with her guardian angel. He helped her all the time and often he opened the door of the church for her and said the Rosary with her. He also corrected her faults. Mary stopped appearing to Benoite for part of each month so the devil cried out: “She has forsaken you!” but Benoit paid no attention to the devil. Benoite continued on with her mission and when she was seventy-one she got a burning fever, which consumed her. She was in bed for one month before her death. On Christmas Day, 1718, she asked pardon of all those she had offended and asked for Holy Viaticum. Suddenly Our Lady appeared to her. On December 28th, she begged to receive the Last Rites. Later, around 8:00 in the evening, during the praying of the Litany of the Child Jesus, she October, the Month of the Rosary passed away in joy.
