Thomas Merton Center  

Definition(s)

  • The Thomas Merton Center at Bellarmine University (Louisville, Kentucky) was founded in October 1969 after the American Trappist monk Thomas Merton made Bellarmine the repository of his manuscripts, letters, journals, tapes, drawings, photographs, and memorabilia. The Center functions as a central resource—nationally and internationally—for research and continued scholarship on Merton and the ideas he espoused: the contemplative life, spirituality, ecumenism, understanding between East and West, peace, and social justice.
