This Is A New Release Of The Original 1896 Edition.
1896. Rolle's writings are the emotional expression of a deep and
exuberant love of God.
"Here in one volume are two classic books by English religious
writer, hermit, and mystic RICHARD ROLLE DE HAMPOLE (13001349). In
The Mending of Life, Rolle tells the story of his life and his
miracles, from the pain of his conversion as a young man to his
settling after a period of wandering with the Cistercian nuns in
the tiny hamlet of Hampole, near Doncaster in England. In The Fire
of Love, Rolle extols an exquisite love of God through poetry and
prose, discussing the importance of the love of God in a life of
faith, and also relates his disagreements with the Church of his
time. Those interested in the medieval literature, the history of
mysticism, and in unique perspectives on the faith should take a
look at these important works by the writer generally considered
the father of English mysticism."
Written in Old Saxon English.
