Confession
Author: Adrienne von Speyr
Hans
Urs von Balthasar calls this "one of her most central works". She
discusses the moral and practical aspects of the sacrament in great depth. Some
of the many areas covered include conversion, scruples, contrition, spiritual
direction, laxity, frequency of confession, the confessions of religious and
lay people, even the confessions of saints. One of the most complete spiritual
treatises ever written on confession.
Adrienne von Speyr was a contemporary Swiss convert, mystic, wife, medical doctor
and author of some 70 books on spirituality and theology. She entered the Church
under the direction of one the greatest theologians and spiritual writers of
the 20th century, Fr. Hans Urs von Balthasar, who became her spiritual director
and confessor for the last 30 years of her life. Her writings, recognized as
a major contribution to the great mystical writings of the Church, are being
translated and published by Ignatius Press. Among her most important works are
Book of All Saints, Confession, The World of Prayer, Handmaid of the Lord, and
The Passion from Within.
