Ludolphus the Carthusian

 Dear Readers of Louis de Ponte,


I am going to be adding some posts of extracts from Ludolph the Carthusian's Life of Christ translated into English by Milton Walsh. Ludolphus (approx 1300 - 1377 or 1378). published by the Liturgical Press, Collegeville, Minnesota US in their Cistercian Study Series no 267.

Ludolph was initially a Dominican and at the age of about 40 he joined the Carthusians. St Ignatius read a copy of his Life of Christ in a Catalan Translation at Manressa and it led to his conversion.
