Adrienne von Speyr was one of the most important mystical
theologians of the last century, heralded by figures like John Paul
II and T.S. Eliot. However, her work has been eclipsed in many ways
by her personal connection to Catholic theologian Hans Urs von
Balthasar. Heaven Opens provides one of the first comprehensive
accounts of von Speyr's theology, MatthewLewis Sutton argues that
the eternal, immanent relations of the Triune God ground the
mystical theological vision of von Speyr. Rooted in this vision of
divine love, von Speyr's work is an account of the opening of
heaven, a revelation of the Trinity's interior life turned outward
to the world, that links intimately to the sacraments, prayer, the
church, and the ethical life of obedience. In von Speyr's mystical
theology, God as Triune journeys to us in order to brings into the
inner life of the Trinity. Here, von Speyr's work is for the first
time given an independent hearing, expositing its content,
features, and connections, and assessing its contribution to
contemporary Catholic theology.
