Ursula King's Christian Mystics tells the story of sixty men and
women whose mystical devotion to God transformed the times in which
they lived and still affects our present-day search for spiritual
meaning. Moving from key figures of the early Christian age to the
great mystics of modern times, special emphasis is given to the
great high points of mysticism in the medieval, early modern and
Eastern Orthodox traditions. The lives of visionaries, including
Clement of Alexandria, Saint Bonaventure, Blaise Pascal and Simone
Weil are studied in detail. It reveals the richly diverse
expressions that mystical experience has found during two thousand
years of Christian history and shows how it underpins Christian
ritual and doctrine as a source of spiritual inspiration for all
believers. Beautifully illustrated and written by a prominent name
in the British academic world, this significant text has received
high acclaim and is the only book to feature biographies of key
mystics.
