Overview

Excerpt from Life of St. Stephen Harding: Abbot of Citeaux and Founder of the Cistercian Order The following pages were printed with the view of forming one of a series of Lives of English Saints, according to a prospectus which appeared in the course of last autumn, but which has since, for private reasons, been superseded. As it is not the only work undertaken in pursuance of the plan then in contemplation, it is probable, that, should it meet with success, other Lives, now partly written, will be published in a similar form by their respective authors on their own responsibility. The Author wishes me to notice that since his Life of St. Stephen has been in type, he has discovered that he has partly gone over the same ground as the learned Mr. Maitland in his Papers on the Darli Ages. In con sequence, as might have been expected, the same facts in many instances occur in both. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
