{"product_id":"dag-hammarskjold-markings-9780571060153","title":"Markings","description":"Universally known and admired as a peacemaker, Dag Hammarskjöld concealed a remarkable intense inner life which he recorded over several decades in this journal of poems and spiritual meditations, left to be published after his death. A dramatic account of spiritual struggle, \u003ci\u003eMarkings\u003c\/i\u003e has inspired hundreds of thousands of readers since it was first published in 1964.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eMarkings\u003c\/i\u003e is distinctive, as W.H. Auden remarks in his foreword, as a record of \"the attempt by a professional man of action to unite in one life the \u003ci\u003evia activa\u003c\/i\u003e and the \u003ci\u003evia contemplativa\u003c\/i\u003e.\" It reflects its author's efforts to live his creed, his belief that all men are equally the children of God and that faith and love require of him a life of selfless service to others. For Hammarskjöld, \"the road to holiness necessarily passes through the world of action.\" \u003ci\u003eMarkings\u003c\/i\u003e is not only a fascinating glimpse of the mind of a great man, but also a moving spiritual classic that has left its mark on generations of readers.","brand":"Faber \u0026 Faber","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53889035993430,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/dag-hammarskjold-markings-9780571060153","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
