With an informative and extensive introduction covering Teresas
early life, her life as a nun, and her work as a foundress,
Kavanaugh sets the stage for a valuable selection of writings from
the Saints works, divided into two sections. The first set centers
on Teresas growth in the spiritual life, particularly her life of
prayer. The second part focuses on the copious store of her
contemplative experiences which shed light on the Christian
mysteries. Also includes a chronology of Teresas life and a
selected bibliography. Fr. Kavanaugh's excellent introduction to
St. Teresa's understanding and experience of Christian
contemplation is required reading for anyone desiring a deeper
prayer life. Kevin Culligan, O.C.D. Institute of Carmelite Studies,
Chicago, Ill. Kieran Kavanaugh, who has given us such fine
contemporary translations of Teresa, here focuses on the rich
content of Teresa's contemplation, seen through a prism of many
colors, from the darkness of the abyss to the bright light of the
interior Sun. Tessa Bielecki Author of Teresa of Avila Mystical
