Thomas Merton Centenary
Christopher Beha of Harper's Magazine, novelist Colm Tóibín, and author Paul Elie discuss the writings of poet and activist Thomas Merton (19141968) whose works continue to influence critical thought on spiritual wisdom, non-violent activism, and meditation. A Trappist monk at the Abbey of Gethsemani for over 25 years, Merton wrote some of the greatest books on modern spiritual thought, including New Seeds of Contemplation and Gandhi on Non-Violence. New Directions, who published Merton from his earliest collection of poems to his posthumous work, co-presents this celebration of Merton's centenary.
