Breve biografia
Thomas à Kempis (c.1380-25 July 1471) was a German canon regular of the late medieval period and the most probable author of The Imitation of Christ, which is one of the best known Christian books on devotion.

Although almost universally known in English as Thomas à Kempis, the "a" represents the Latin "from" and is erroneously accented.

La pace giungerà nel giorno che il Signore conosce. Allora non vi sarà giorno e notte, come in questo tempo, ma luce intramontabile, splendore senza fine, pace salda e tranquillità sicura.

Lettura propiziata dalla precedente, questo libro era infatti citato ne “Il mondo nuovo” tra quelli pericolosi da far circolare, anche tra persone che ormai non avrebbero dovuto avere derive di nessun genere. Una rapida ricerca mi ha permesso di ritrovarlo in una terza fila di un mio scaffale, letteralmente sepolto da altre pile di libri, ma la curiosità di sapere e capire il contenuto di questo tomo era troppo forte, l’ho così riportato alla luce. E ho fatto bene, perché ho infine potuto apprezzare questo testo, scritto circa nel XIII secolo, la cui pericolosità deriva dall’estrema semplicità del suo linguaggio, che senza molti giri di parole e trattati pseudoteologici, arriva direttamente al cuore dei fedeli, spiegando con grande efficacia le vie che portano a Dio; un vero e proprio decalogo del perfetto cristiano, da tenere sempre a portata di mano e consultare continuamente e credo che proprio questo ne abbia fatto un testo poco sicuro da far circolare nelle società distopiche, non sia mai risvegliasse qualche coscienza…… (altro)
