Edited with additional English translations by Frederick Michael Augustine Mary (Mike Church).

Mike Church has performed the signal task of translating those 58 pages PLUS the 4 page introduction written by Fr. Bergamo, Plus the Imprimatur granted by the Vatican in 1792, PLUS decoded all of Fr. Bergamo’s footnote citations and updated the references so modern readers can consult Bergamo’s sources, and included them all in this edition! This is the most comprehensive and compleat edition of Fr. Bergamo’s internationally loved work “Humility of Heart” and is presented here in a hardback, collector’s format that will be passed down for generations.

“HUMILITY OF HEART” which is best described by Father Gaetano de Bergamo the author of the original work as summarized recently by the web-blog Unam Sanctam Catholicam:

In the early 18th century, a priest named Fr. Cajetan Mary de Bergamo (d. 1753) wrote a treatise entitled Humility of Heart, which was popularized by the English Cardinal Vaughn in his 1903 translation and has subsequently become a classic on the virtue. In his treatise, Bergamo insists on the universal practice of humility, but notes that the way humility looks externally will vary depending on one’s station in life.
