The History of the Sacred Passion New Edition with Enhanced Text

The History of the Sacred Passion (also known as The Sacred Passion) by Luis de la Palma (Spain, 1559-1641) was first published in 1624 in Spain, and has been a steady and continuous resource in the 400 years since. It is one of the most influential theological yet accessible reflections on Our Lord's suffering and death and guides the reader into a historical, spiritual and at the same time practical exploration of the week leading up to Jesus Christ's crucifixion, death and burial. This edition presents de la Palma's classic work for the first time in a clear and improved format in english. Using various enhancements, it brings it closer to the 21st century reader by making its narrative easier to read and follow, but without changing the excellent and enduring 1872 english translation by Henry James Coleridge (save in a very few instances when recourse has had to be made to the spanish original in order to render its proper essence to today's audience).
