In this volume, threerelated sets of Merton's conferences on ancient and contemporary documentsgoverning the lives of the monks are published for the first time:. on the Carta Caritatis, or Charter of Charity, the foundational document of theOrder of Cîteaux. on the Consuetudines, the twelfth-century collection of customs and regulationsof the Order. on the twentieth-century Constitutions of the Order, the basic rules by whichMerton and his students actually lived at the timeThese conferences form an essential part of the overall picture of Cistercianmonastic life that Merton provided as part of his project of initiation into themonastic tradition that is evident in the broad variety of courses that he puttogether and taught over the period of his mastership.As Abbot John Eudes Bamberger, OCSO, himself a former student of Merton,notes in his preface to this volume, The texts presented in this present bookeventually gave rise to the Cistercian way of spiritual living that continues tocontribute to the Church's witness in this new millennium. This publication is awitness to the process of transformation that ensures the continuity of the Catholicmonastic tradition that witnesses to the God who, as Saint Augustine observed,is 'ever old and ever new.'
