Cisterciens au Val-des-Choux et à Sept-Fons - 1762-1792
General Regulations, Dom Dorothée Jalloutz, texts presented by Brother Placide Vernet, a monk at the Cîteaux monestary
This volume, dedicated to the general reglulations, provides a detailed picture of how Cistercian monks lived at the end of the XVIIIth Century in the Mountain of Burgundy (Montagne de Bourgogne). This difficult life; austere, highly regimented and strict, yet freely accepted, was often also that of most people. This book is an exceptional account of this key period.
