Book excerpt: Two extraordinarily popular booklets. "Through the Rosary with Fra Angelico and "Through the Mysteries of Light with Giotto and Fra Angelico have been combined in this little booklet. Giotto and Fra Angelio are masters at conveying the sense of the sacred which is so conducive to reflective prayer. The method of reciting the rosary that is used here is praised by pope Paul VI in "Mariailis Cultus: "for the precise purpose of favoring contemplation and to help the mind correspond to the words being used, it was the practice... to add to the name of Jesus in every 'Hail Mary' a pharse which would recall the mystery that had been announced" (n. 46).
