El 18 de Abril de 1888 tuvo lugar dentro de la embajada brit nica en Jap n la lectura de un apasionante documento titulado: "Jujutsu, el antiguo arte samurai de luchar sin armas". El autor material fue el profesor Jigoro Kano, fundador del Judo Kodokan. El reverendo Thomas Lindsay asisti a Kano en la traducci n y describi la escuela de Kano en las ltimas p ginas del texto. Este documento es de gran inter s para todos los investigadores de la vida de Jigoro Kano y en especial a los analistas de la transici n entre el antiguo bujutsu y el budo actual. Dada la fecha del documento (solo 5 o 6 a os despu s de crear el Kodokan) podemos apreciar claramente el gran trabajo que realiz para estudiar a fondo las antiguas escuelas de Jujutsu, incluyendo en el texto algunas referencias a libros antiguos provenientes de china y Jap n. Kano analiza entre otros asuntos el origen y significado del Jujutsu, nombra, describe y aporta datos sobre las escuelas m s importantes en aquella poca, resuelve el posible conflicto sobre la fecha y lugar del origen del Jujutsu y nos regala algunas historias y an cdotas de maestros celebres del koryu Jujutsu.

St. Teresa Margaret Redi was a Carmelite captivated by the love of God. Helping us to appreciate the holy life she led are eyewitness accounts of her spiritual directors collected soon after her death. The author of this small study builds his story on those accounts by the Discalced Carmelite friars who knew her as a young religious. Father Gabriel of St. Mary Magdalene lays out clearly the steps in Saint Teresa Margaret's spiritual biography and how she developed her deep attachment to love for God, by using classic Carmelite doctrine about growth in the spiritual life. Teresa Margaret Redi was an Italian daughter of Saint Teresa of Jesus who lived in the eighteenth century (1747-1770). Like Saints Therese of Lisieux and Teresa de los Andes after her, her life in Carmel was brief. Her canonization came early in the last century (1934) and only now are we coming to appreciate better the spiritual legacy she left behind. This summary study by a noted spiritual theologian is a useful companion to the fuller biography of Margaret Rowe, God is Love: Saint Teresa Margaret, Her Life (ICS Publications, 2003). The translator was Editor of Spiritual Life Magazine when he issued this work for Spiritual Life press originally in 1965.
