Title
1953-12-04: Letter to Thomas Merton from Fr. Nivard Kinsella, O.C.S.O.

Kinsella, though expressing positive feedback overall with Merton's book The Ascent to Truth, takes issue with an assertion about modern Thomists (or would like to know Merton's source for his claim) and finds Merton's presentation of "acquired contemplation" and "infused contemplation" to be confusing.
