Notes
Black cloth and dust jacket; signed and inscribed by Merton, "In Corde Jesu, F.M. Louis OCR". Merton signed some of his books with his Monastic name "Louis" and also used the blessing "In Corde Jesu" (In the heart of Jesus) and "OCR" (Order of Cistercians - reformed - research). He used a similar method of signing, for example, in the book, "Thomas Merton and James Laughlin - Selected Letters" (see page 38). A rare and interesting find, coming originally from the significant collection of a Merton collector.

Flannery O'Connor -- A Prose Elegy / mimeograph Place Published: Privately printed at Gethsemani (Trappist, Kentucky)
Notes
Mimeograph; text on recto only. This manuscript appears in "Raids on the Unspeakable" (1966) and is referred to by Mary Jo Weaver in the article "Thomas Merton and Flannery O'Connor: The Urgency of Vision" published in "Thomas Merton: Pilgrim in Progress" (1983). This mimeograph is part of a larger set of mimeographs that was obtained from the convent of Saint Helena at Vails Gate, New York. One of the sister's there had met with Merton with a few others while she resided at a sister house at Versailles, Kentucky (this meeting was noted in "The School of Charity" on page 198 and in "Dancing in the Waters of Life - Journal #5" on page 40). From that meeting the convent was put on Merton's mailing list and received numerous mimeographs in the 1960s - some of which are housed in this collection. Some of the publication information of these mimeographs was obtained with the kind participation of Patricia Burton, noted Merton bibliographer.
