The Life of the Virgin Mary

Following an initial overview, part one commences with the visionary’s account of Mary’s parents Anne and Joachim and their Essene ancestors, closing with the immaculate conception under the golden gate. Part two covers Mary’s birth (including its effects in many places), presentation, life in the Temple, and wedding. Part three provides intimate details of the annunciation, visitation, journey to Bethlehem, the caves (cave of the nativity and milk cave), the nativity, and the adoration of the shepherds. Part four focuses on Mary’s relationship with Elizabeth, the arrival of the three kings, the purification, flight into Egypt, life in Egypt, and return. Part five describes Mary’s latter years and death and assumption at Ephesus. Finally, part six offers insights into Mary as mystical Virgin.

The volumes in this series include: 

A two-volume set consisting of 

Five volumes on People of the New Testament, covering virtually every individual in the visions (approximately 250 in all):

Scenes from the Lives of the Saints (treating of 59 saints)

Two volumes covering a multitude of separate themes:

And lastly, The Life of Anne Catherine Emmerich.

This series supplements an earlier Angelico series on the Visions of Anne Catherine Emmerich: 

In 2009, Clemens Brentano’s original notes of Anne Catherine’s visions (in 38 notebooks) finally became readily available, and the present series incorporates much new material translated for the first time. With regard to both individuals and themes, all references thus far located in the notes and in prior translations have been woven together, so the reader can find in one place almost all of what Anne Catherine had to say on each topic.
