Meister Eckhart, the fourteenth-century German mystic and
theologian, is one of the most enigmatic and controversial figures
in the history of the Church, and few have played so diverse and
fertile a role in the cultural imagination. He has been seen as
both heretic and 'the man from whom God nothing hid'; Christian
mystic and Buddhist sage; Catholic and Protestant; feminist and
ecologist; he is both medieval schoolman and inspirer of
contemporary philosophers such as Heidegger, Bloch and Derrida.
Oliver Davies's masterly evaluation of Eckhart is based on an
unrivalled knowledge of the original texts, their historical and
theological context, and their place in the Christian mystical
tradition. The portrait of St Dominic on the cover (of the book)
illustrates one of Davies's main themes: Eckhart's position in the
mainstream Dominican tradition of grounding theology in spiritual
experience. Both a stimulating scholarly study and an ideal
introduction for the non-specialist, Meister Eckhart: Mystical
Theologian explores the enduring fascination of Meister Eckhart, 'a
mystic for our age'.
