True spirituality does not happen in a vacuum, as a "God-and-me"
phenomenon independent of any context. Rather, it develops and is
lived and expressed through the cultural mindset of its time and
place. In this accessible and well-illustrated book, Maria Jaoudi
opens the treasures of the theology and spirituality of the Middle
Ages and Renaissance in the three major Western religious
traditions: Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. Through an
enlightening discussion of the architecture of Europe's cathedrals;
the work of two remarkable medieval women, Julian and Hildegard;
the sefirot of the Jewish Kabbalah; the Islamic love mystics Rabi'a
and Rumi; the Florentine masters of the Renaissance; and others,
she shows how spirituality was made manifest in the great art and
writings of the medieval and Renaissance periods. The great masters
of these ages come to life to speak to readers who seek to learn
more about spirituality and expand their prayer life.
