About the author

Saint Alfonso María de Liguori, CSsR (1696–1787), was an Italian Catholic bishop, spiritual writer, composer, musician, artist, poet, lawyer, scholastic philosopher, and theologian.

He founded the Congregation of the Most Holy Redeemer (the Redemptorists). In 1762 he was appointed Bishop of Sant'Agata dei Goti. A prolific writer, he published nine editions of his "Moral Theology" in his lifetime, in addition to other devotional and ascetic works and letters. Among his best known works are "The Glories of Mary" and "The Way of the Cross", the latter still used in parishes during Lenten devotions.

He was canonized in 1839 by Pope Gregory XVI and proclaimed a Doctor of the Church by Pope Pius IX in 1871. One of the most widely read Catholic authors, he is the patron saint of confessors.

St. Alphonsus Liguori's "Death, Judgment, Heaven, Hell: Meditations on the Four Last Things (Revised)" is a sobering spiritual guide that urges readers to reflect deeply on their eternal destiny through 65 meditations and 15 pious reflections.

This revised edition, translated and edited by Darrell Wright and Eugene Grimm, presents the original 18th-century text in modern English while preserving its solemn tone. The book is structured around the traditional Catholic themes of the Four Last Things—Death, Judgment, Heaven, and Hell—and includes:

• Meditations on the certainty of death, the fleeting nature of life, and the urgency of repentance.
• Reflections on the particular and final judgment, emphasizing accountability before God.
• Descriptions of the joys of Heaven and the torments of Hell, designed to inspire virtue and discourage sin.
• Prayers and a Rule of Life, offering practical spiritual discipline for daily living.
Liguori’s work is intended to awaken the soul to the reality of eternity and encourage a life of holiness and preparation for the inevitable end.
