Publisher's Synopsis
""Studies in Fourteenth Century English Mysticism"" is a book written by Effie Mackinnon that explores the works of four prominent mystics from the 14th century: Richard Rolle, Walter Hilton, Juliana of Norwich, and ""The Cloud of Unknowing."" The book delves into the spiritual writings of each of these individuals, examining their unique perspectives on the nature of God, the human soul, and the relationship between humanity and the divine. Mackinnon provides a comprehensive analysis of the themes and motifs present in each mystic's work, drawing connections between their ideas and the wider context of medieval Christian thought. Through her research, Mackinnon offers readers a deeper understanding of the mystical tradition in England during the 14th century and the enduring relevance of these texts to contemporary spirituality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
