In Mystical Theology and Contemporary Spiritual Practice several
leading scholars explore key themes within the Christian mystical
tradition, contemporary and historical. The overall aim of the book
is to demonstrate the relevance of mystical theology to
contemporary spiritual practice. Attention is given to the works of
Baron von Hugel, Vladimir Lossky, Margery Kempe, Ludwig
Wittgenstein, Thomas Merton, and Francisco de Osuna, as well as to
a wide range of spiritual practices, including pilgrimage,
spiritual direction, contemplative prayer and the quotidian
spirituality of the New Monasticism. Christian mystical theology is
shown to be a living tradition, which has vibrant and creative new
expressions in contemporary spiritual practice. It is argued that
mystical theology affirms something both ordinary and extraordinary
which is fundamental to the Christian experience of prayer.
