En anglais, c'est une présentation nouvelle de l'oeuvre de Dom Guéranger, de sa vie, de sa pensée et de son rayonnement, avec de très nombreuses illustrations.
Scholar, priest and monk, Dom Guéranger began his work in the aftermath of the French revolution, when religious life was effectively abolished in all of Europe. Aiming to restore all aspects of monastic life, the preservation of Gregorian chant -the sung liturgy of the church- was an essential part of Dom Guéranger's goal. He re-founded the Abbey of St Peter in Solesmes, France, which flourishes today as the worlwide center of Gregorian chant spirituality and performance.
For all who have been attracted to the beauty and deep spirituality of Gregorian chant, Solesmes and Dom Guéranger is an inspiration.
