Celle qui pleure (Notre Dame de la Salette) by Léon Bloy
"Celle qui pleure (Notre Dame de la Salette)" by Léon Bloy is a contemplative work that blends religious commentary and historical reflection, likely written in the late 19th century. This book delves into the apparitions of the Virgin Mary in La Salette, exploring themes of divine sorrow, faith, and societal disregard for spiritual truths. Through the voice of the author, readers are invited to engage with the significance of these events andthe implications for humanity. At the start of the text, Léon Bloy presents a powerful and emotive introduction that reflects on the profound message delivered by the Virgin Mary regarding the state of humanity and the urgent need for repentance. He recounts the historical context of the Salette apparitions, illustrating the contrast between the spiritual urgency of the warnings from Mary and the apathy displayed by society towards them. The author expresses his personal connection to the subject, mentioning the influence of a deceased priest who inspired him to undertake this literary project. This blend of personal narrative and religious exhortation sets the tone for a deep exploration of the themes of faith, penance, and divine lamentation, foreshadowing the intricate layers of thought that will unfold throughout the work.
