Adalbert De Vogue (born 1924) has been a Benedictine monk at the Abbey of Pierre-qui-Vire, France, since 1944. In 1974 he entered a hermitage on the abbey grounds and has remained a hermit since, researching and writing histories of monasticism and the monks of antiquity and the early Middle Ages.
A rare half-hour video interview (of a young Adalbert) titled “Se vaincre soi-même” or “To Conquer the Self” was produced by CBC Television (Canada) and is available at http://www.dieu-parmi-nous.com/R/dom.adalbert.de.vogue.wmv. For best results, download the video rather than attempt to launch it from the website: right click the link and select “Save Target As” or “Save Link As.”
Thanks to friend of Hermitary for bringing it to our attention.
