At the heart of this unique publication lies the poignant thirteenth-century poem, the Stabat Mater, which vividly portrays a mother's heart-wrenching anguish as she witnesses her Son's crucifixion. The depiction of Mary, shattered and in tears beneath the Cross, has grown overtime to symbolize universal solace for anyone suffering the loss of a loved one. Throughout the centuries, this timeless verse has inspired composers, evoking soul-stirring melodies, while painters, sculptors, choreographers, writers, poets, and translators have responded to its emotive themes with profound creativity.
Stabat Mater Dolorosa takes the reader to the picturesque town of Todi in Umbria, widely believed to be the birthplace of the Stabat Mater's poet. The book intricately explores the profound relationship between the Stabat Mater and the Requiem of Russian poet Anna Akhmatova. And there is the story of a seventeen-year-old English student who translated the Stabat Mater from Latin to German out of sheer passion for its text and themes.
Through captivating storytelling, Stabat Mater Dolorosa navigates through historical locales, sacred rituals, breathtaking artworks, and mesmerizing performances, offering readers a compelling tapestry of cultural exploration spanning across the ages.
