This major work by F Giuseppe Crispino, a Neapolitan secular priest of the 17th century, covering all aspects of Oratorian spirituality and life, was originally translated by F Faber in 1850.
This new edition, in which F Faber's High Victorian prose has been somewhat tempered to render it more accessible to the modern reader, also includes translations of the Latin quotations, which Faber left in their original tongue.
