TMS Reading Group Information
The Thomas Merton Society Reading Group - join us - all are welcome!
The first session of the online Thomas Merton Society Reading Group was on 16 June 2022.
We come together on the third Thursday evening of alternate months for about 1 hour.
Over the past 12 months we have shared our thoughts on the following writings by Thomas Merton:
‘Message to Poets’ in Raids on the Unspeakable
‘The Power and Meaning of Love’ in Disputed Questions.
Correspondence between Thomas Merton & Rosemary Radford Ruether
‘The Wild Places’
‘Rain and the Rhinoceros’ in Raids on the Unspeakable
Journal entries from October 1964
We will all come together again for our next Zoom meeting on Thursday 19 December, 2024 at 7pm GMT when we will be looking at Merton’s letters of 1967 & 1968 to Suzanne Butorovich, a sixteen year-old high-school student from California. The letters can be found in The Road to Joy - Letters to New and Old Friends.
If you would like to join the bi-monthly reading group please email tmsreadinggroup@thomasmertonsociety.org.uk
Those who sign up are provided with digital copies of the texts for discussion, on the basis that they are for study and personal use only.
