JOHN NEPOMUCENE NEUMANN’S LETTERS. APRIL-JUNE 1836. En Route to the United States
Original language description
This study intends to convey to an English-speaking academic audience three unpublished letters of America’s first male saint, John Nepomucene Neumann (1811-1860), which reflect his journey to the USA, or more precisely the period from February to June 1836, in the context of the event from the crossing of the borders of his native Bohemia to his arrival in New York, where he was ordained a priest and sent by his new bishop, John Dubois, to his first post as a missionary. Besides Neumann’s Spiritual diaries (1835-1839) and his autobiography (1852), which have long since been published, these letters are precious for getting to know the personality and context of the early life of the future saint. All of these letters were originally written in German. They are preserved in archives in Italy, the Czech Republic and the USA.
