Thurston Herbert - Die korperlichen Begleiterscheinungen der Mystik
Producent:
Herbert Thurston was born in London and educated at Stonyhurst and London University. He entered the Society of Jesus (the Jesuits), and was master of Beaumont College from 1880 to 1887. Ordained in 1890, he served as headmaster of Wimbledon College for a single term in 1893-4. Thurston wrote more than 150 articles for the Catholic Encyclopedia (1907-1914), and published nearly 800 articles in magazines and scholarly journals, as well a dozen books. He also re-edited Alban Butler's Lives of the Saints (1926-1938). Many of Thurston's articles show a skeptical attitude towards popular legends about the lives of the saints and about holy relics. On the other hand, his treatment of spiritualism and the paranormal was regarded as "too sympathetic" by some within the Catholic community. Father Thurston joined the Society for Psychical Research in 1919, and he was a friend of psychical researcher Everard Feilding. Thurston attributed the phenomena of stigmata to the effects of suggestion. He was also a close friend of Father George Tyrrell, a fellow Jesuit priest who was harshly sanctioned by the Catholic Church for his Modernist theological opinions. Thurston died in London in 1939.!
