About this Book
By linking together a series of brilliantly chosen texts from the early centuries
of the Church, the author lays bare the roots of the deeply mystical spirituality
that has flourished among Christians throughout the ages. This book will appeal
to anyone who is interested in the field of spirituality. It is a masterly
contribution to Christian scholarship, and this second edition includes an
extraordinarily useful Index.
Some Reviews:
“Anthologies of mysticism abound, but this one is clearly in a class
by itself … It is spiritual reading in the true sense – a book
to be read and re-read, to be pondered and savored.”
Spirit & Life
“There are some
books so good that all one wants to say is: go out, buy it and read it - it
is marvelous! And so it is with this fine translation.”
Andrew Louth, Fairacres Chronicle
Clément has provided
a helpful contribution to all who are interested in the study of spirituality.”
America “The Roman Catholic church and Orthodoxy have been separated
for nearly a thousand years. And yet, as Clément so elegantly demonstrates,
we have the same communion of faith and sacraments.”
Harold Isbell, Commonweal
