Book Augustine Baker  Frontiers of the Spirit

Download or read book Augustine Baker Frontiers of the Spirit written by Victor de Waal and published by SLG Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fairacres Publication 161 David Augustine Baker (1575-1641), Welshman, lawyer, Benedictine monk and priest, was an individualist who lived in a number of boundary situations – geographical, linguistic, cultural, religious – and often crossed frontiers. He encouraged Christians to make their home on the borderlands between this world and the next. In this introduction to Dom Augustine Baker’s life and teaching, we hear his own voice directly through the use of extracts from ‘Holy Wisdom’ and other writings. His teaching that spiritual direction, reading and prayer are of help to us on the journey towards the ‘vision of God’ remains pertinent today.

Book St  John of the Cross OCT

  • Author : Peter Tyler
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2010-04-30
  • ISBN : 1441157727
  • Pages : 182 pages

Download or read book St John of the Cross OCT written by Peter Tyler and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2010-04-30 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peter Tyler endeavours to represent St John of the Cross in the truest light, covering his life from the angles of John as Theologian, as Mystic, Psychologist, and Artist. Tyler draws parallels, at times uncomfortable, between the age of disruption and and change in the church during which St John wrote, and our current age. In so doing he makes the case for this controversial, but largely misunderstood, figure to be an important guide for practical theology today.

Book Memory s Library

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jennifer Summit
  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 2008-11-15
  • ISBN : 0226781720
  • Pages : 354 pages

Download or read book Memory s Library written by Jennifer Summit and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008-11-15 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Jennifer Summit’s account, libraries are more than inert storehouses of written tradition; they are volatile spaces that actively shape the meanings and uses of books, reading, and the past. Considering the two-hundred-year period between 1431, which saw the foundation of Duke Humfrey’s famous library, and 1631, when the great antiquarian Sir Robert Cotton died, Memory’s Library revises the history of the modern library by focusing on its origins in medieval and early modern England. Summit argues that the medieval sources that survive in English collections are the product of a Reformation and post-Reformation struggle to redefine the past by redefining the cultural place, function, and identity of libraries. By establishing the intellectual dynamism of English libraries during this crucial period of their development, Memory’s Library demonstrates how much current discussions about the future of libraries can gain by reexamining their past.

Book Angels of Light  Sanctity and the Discernment of Spirits in the Early Modern Period

Download or read book Angels of Light Sanctity and the Discernment of Spirits in the Early Modern Period written by Clare Copeland and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2012-11-23 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light." (2 Corinthians 11:14) Paul's warning of false apostles and false righteousness struck a special chord in the period of the European Reformations. At no other time was the need for the discernment of spirits felt as strongly as in this newly confessional age. More than ever, the ability to discern was a mark of holiness and failure the product of demonic temptation. The contributions to this volume chart individual responses to a problem at the heart of religious identity. They show that the problem of discernment was not solely a Catholic concern and was an issue for authors and artists as much as for prophets and visionaries.

Book Adam Usk s Secret

    Book Details:
  • Author : Steven Justice
  • Publisher : University of Pennsylvania Press
  • Release : 2015-01-30
  • ISBN : 0812291050
  • Pages : 222 pages

Download or read book Adam Usk s Secret written by Steven Justice and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2015-01-30 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adam Usk, a Welsh lawyer in England and Rome during the first years of the fifteenth century, lived a peculiar life. He was, by turns, a professor, a royal advisor, a traitor, a schismatic, and a spy. He cultivated and then sabotaged figures of great influence, switching allegiances between kings, upstarts, and popes at an astonishing pace. Usk also wrote a peculiar book: a chronicle of his own times, composed in a strangely anxious and secretive voice that seems better designed to withhold vital facts than to recount them. His bold starts tumble into anticlimax; he interrupts what he starts to tell and omits what he might have told. Yet the kind of secrets a political man might find safer to keep—the schemes and violence of regime change—Usk tells openly. Steven Justice sets out to find what it was that Adam Usk wanted to hide. His search takes surprising turns through acts of political violence, persecution, censorship, and, ultimately, literary history. Adam Usk's narrow, eccentric literary genius calls into question some of the most casual and confident assumptions of literary criticism and historiography, making stale rhetorical habits seem new. Adam Usk's Secret concludes with a sharp challenge to historians over what they think they can know about literature—and to literary scholars over what they think they can know about history.
