La Clochette La Clochette (The Little Bell) was a small spiritual magazine published monthly in French from 1901 to 1919 by a Catholic Church organization in Paris named "La Ligue de la Sainte-Messe" (The League of the Holy Mass). Father Esther Bouquerel (1855–1923) founded the organization and edited the magazine, which had approximately 8,000 subscribers. In December 1912, the magazine published the earliest known version of an anonymous prayer for peace, now widely but erroneously called the Prayer of Saint Francis.
Prayers or Meditations Prayers or Meditations, written in 1545 by the English queen Catherine Parr, was the first book published in England by a woman under her own name and in English language. It first appeared in print on 8 June 1545. Preceded in the previous year by her anonymously published "Psalms or Prayers", the 60-page book consisted of vernacular texts selected and assembled by the Queen for personal devotion. It is based on the much longer 15th century Catholic devotional book by Thomas à Kempis, "The Imitation of Christ", but reoriented for the purposes of the developing Church of England.
