La Expositio paraenetica in Regulam Carmelitanam, di cui
viene qui presentata la prima traduzione italiana, è un trattato
del beato Jean Soreth (1394-1471), «priore generale dei
fratelli e delle sorelle della Beata Vergine Maria del Monte
Carmelo» – com’egli stesso si definiva. Egli fu alla guida
dell’Ordine per venti anni (1451-1471) e, da uomo di notevole
statura spirituale, spese la maggior parte del tempo per
favorire e consolidare il benessere e la salute spirituale dei
confratelli e delle consorelle.
Questo testo, come suggerisce il titolo, è un commentario
alla Regola del Carmelo in forma esortativa: essa si situa nel
contesto tardo-medievale di una riforma dell’Ordine, che in
qualche modo ha dato un’impronta all’identità dei carmelitani
nella prima modernità. E Jean Soreth fu una persona
capace di iniziare un processo di riforma: si prodigò per
individuare persone sensibili a incarnare il modello di vita
carmelitana proposto dalla Regola e disponibili a mettersi in
gioco.

The Dutch Carmelite, philosophy professor and martyr Titus Brandsma wrote numerous letters and postcards to his family, a strikingly large number of which have survived. These letters and cards provide the reader with an interesting insight into his life and work. Through this correspondence, the nature of the relationships that Titus Brandsma maintained with the members of his family becomes visible. In addition, the reader gains first-hand knowledge of many personal, but also cultural, religious and professional experiences, thoughts and attitudes that Titus Brandsma told his family about in the course of his life. Furthermore, the reader becomes acquainted with an astonishingly wide private and professional network mentioned in the letters and cards, as well as with extensive and, for Brandsma’s time, unusual travelling.
In this volume, all preserved letters and cards are presented in chronological order and placed in their context. The correspondence to the family begins in 1895, at a time when the fourteen-year-old Titus was attending the Franciscan grammar school in Megen, and ends in 1942, when the sixty-one-year-old Titus was imprisoned in the Dachau concentration camp, where he died after a short stay.
During all these years, Titus had intensive contact with his family, discussed all important family matters with his parents and siblings, took part in joys and sorrows, advised his family on difficult decisions and also repeatedly wrote extensively about himself and what was on his mind.

These revised Constitutions offer us a valuable instrument to help us have a clearer idea of what kind of witness we are to give and a better understanding of the values to which we want to give witness. We will be well able to read these Constitutions on our own, or with groups of people who are interested in reading and praying with, them. We will also be able to count on the help of experts in our Order and beyond who may help us to see the wider implications of what we have in our Constitutions, and see how we are connected through these Constitutions with the wider Church at this time in its history.
