Isolani I am familiar with in passing, but I have never found an English translation of his Summa; I think the Latin original can be found on Google Books.<br /><br />As for a reading list, the following books have been helpful in one way or another:<br /><br />"Creating the Cult of St. Joseph," by Charlene Villaseñor Black<br />"Joseph of Nazareth Through the Centuries," by Joseph F. Chorpenning<br />"St. Joseph in Early Christianity," by Joseph T. Lienhard<br />"The Life and Glories of St. Joseph," by Edward Healy Thompson<br /><br />There are many Josephite devotional books in print, but they are largely the same, in my experience. Once you read Thompson's book, the others feel derivative.J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04821093432726247774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3348523519788188753.post-20785668186071633462015-10-15T14:19:21.941-05:002015-10-15T14:19:21.941-05:00Have you read True Devotion to St. Joseph and the ...Have you read True Devotion to St. Joseph and the Church by Fr. Dominic De Domenico O.P. or The Summary of the Gifts of St. Joseph by Isidore Isolani? I would appreciate to know what you thought of those works and to see more of your reading list since this topic has piqued my interest.
