Two More Cistercian Idas: Blessed Ida of Louvain and Blessed Ida of Nivelles.
- Authors
Merton, Thomas
- Abstract
The article discusses the paper "Two More Cisterian Idas," by Thomas Merton. The biography of the Cisterian saint Blessed Ida of Leeuwen was based on the works of a young professed monk at the Abbey of Gethsemani in the mid-forties. These three Idas were called the Blessed Cistercian women of the "Golden Age" in an effort to make them popular to contemporary monastics.
