Cloth. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Anthony Clarke Edition. Hardback. The Imitation of Christ. Slightly sunned spine. Translated by Robert Dudley. This new Translation of The Imitation of Christ is both accurate and without needless embellishment; the work of a scholar and poet. For centuries The Imitation of Christ has been in high favour with the devout. It was written for a restricted audience of men who have given up the world for the cloister; beginners at the religious life, as all religious remain. It is perhaps necessary to look afresh at the work of Thomas A. Kempis and whatever conclusion may be reached the book will still have the permanent interest and value of a classic. 157 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
