The Life of the Venerable Madeleine Barat: Foundress of the Society of the Sacred Heart of Jesus is a biographical work written by Georgiana Fullerton and published in 1900. The book tells the story of Madeleine Barat, a French Catholic nun who founded the Society of the Sacred Heart of Jesus in the early 19th century. Fullerton’s book provides a detailed account of Barat’s life, from her childhood in Burgundy to her time as a student in Paris and her eventual entry into religious life. The author also explores Barat’s spiritual journey and her deep commitment to the education of young women. The Society of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, which Barat founded in 1800, was dedicated to the education of girls and young women. Fullerton describes the challenges that Barat faced in establishing the society, including opposition from the French government and the church hierarchy. Despite these obstacles, Barat’s vision for the society was realized, and it grew to become a global organization with schools and missions in Europe, North America, and South America. The book also touches on Barat’s personal relationships, including her close bond with her brother Louis, who served as her advisor and confidant throughout her life. Fullerton’s work offers readers a glimpse into the life of a remarkable woman whose dedication to education and faith inspired generations of young women.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
