Download or read book In Context: Teresa of Ávila, John of the Cross, and Their World written by Mark O'Keefe OSB and published by ICS Publications. This book was released on 2020-03-04 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: St. Teresa of Ávila and St. John of the Cross are among the greatest teachers of prayer in the Christian tradition. For nearly five centuries, their writings on the spiritual life have guided those seeking greater union with God. Beyond the written corpus of these saints, the lived experiences of these reformers of the Carmelite Order also draws fascination. Living in sixteenth-century Spain among kings, prelates, explorers, inquisitors, and reformers, these two saints were formed and sanctified by the context and circumstances of their historical time and place. In Context: Teresa of Ávila, John of the Cross, and Their World explores the social, cultural, intellectual, and religious themes that prevailed during the time in which St. Teresa of Ávila and St. John of the Cross lived and breathed. This book is not only a thematic overview but also visits particular situations in the lives of these saints: the events that shaped their writings, their lives, and the Carmelite Reform they initiated. Offering for the first time in English a comprehensive contextual overview of the Carmelite reformers, Father O’Keefe draws upon pivotal scholarly sources not available to many beginner-to-intermediate students of spirituality. The extensive bibliographies point readers toward the next steps in diving deeper into Carmelite studies. Also including: + A fully linked comprehensive index + 16 pages of color photos. This book is an excellent resource for any earnest student of St. Teresa of Ávila and St. John of the Cross.

Download or read book The Mystical Science of the Soul written by Jessica A. Boon and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2012-12-07 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mystical Science of the Soul explores the unexamined influence of medieval discourses of science and spirituality on recogimiento, the unique Spanish genre of recollection mysticism that served as the driving force behind the principal developments in Golden Age mysticism. Building on recent research in medieval optics, physiology, and memory in relation to the devotional practices of the late Middle Ages, Jessica A. Boon probes the implications of an ‘embodied soul’ for the intellectual history of Spanish mysticism. Boon proposes a fundamental rereading of the key recogimiento text Subida del Monte Sión (1535/1538), which melds the traditionally distinct spiritual techniques of moral self-examination, Passion meditation, and negative theology into one cognitively adept path towards mystical union. She is also the first English-language scholar to treat the author of this influential work – the Renaissance physician Bernardino de Laredo, a pivotal figure in the transition from medieval to early modern spirituality on the Iberian peninsula and a source for Teresa of Avila’s mystical language.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through the 'dark night of the soul' to the depiction of the erotically-charged union of the soul and God, the poetry and prose works of the Spanish friar John of the Cross (1542-1591) offer a striking account of the transformation of the individual in the course of the Christian life. John of the Cross: Desire, Transformation, and Selfhood argues that these writings are animated by John's own creative and subtly conceptualized notion of erotic desire. John's understanding of desire has the potential to enrich recent theological discussion of the subject, but it has been curiously neglected in past scholarship. To correct this lacuna, this study undertakes a detailed historical analysis in three parts. Firstly, it attends to the patristic, medieval, and sixteenth-century Spanish influences on John's writings, showing how John reworks a long tradition of biblical, Christian, and Platonic reflection on the concept. Secondly, it traces the importance of desire through John's writings, demonstrating how he develops the theme through his poetry, his anthropology of the soul, and his account of the spiritual ascent. Thirdly, it explores the reception of his writings in the twentieth century, demonstrating how particular modern philosophical and theological commitments have prevented scholars from recognising the rich and distinctive shape of John's theological vision. John's account of the transformation of the self, with its hopeful vision of the graced transformation of the soul's desires, has significance beyond the constrained modern categories of systematic theology, Christian spirituality, pastoral theology, and mysticism--it is a vision that is worthy of recovery today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Way of Transformation is a play on the title of St. Teresa’s classic The Way of Perfection. Written for her Discalced Carmelite nuns, it is nonetheless considered Teresa’s “operations manual” for anyone genuinely committed to the spiritual life. But by “perfection” she doesn’t intend the futile pursuit of idealized flawlessness, as some might think. Rather, Teresa means achieving an authentic human fulfillment—a true becoming of that person we are meant to be. Offering a fresh perspective on St. Teresa’s thought, Father Mark O’Keefe draws our attention to the central fact that she considers the virtues—especially love of neighbor, detachment, and humility—as the essential and ever-relevant foundation for her spirituality of prayer. This very human Doctor of the Church teaches that—whether in the 16th century or the 21st—prayer is intimately and necessarily linked with personal transformation. Authentic prayer is never divorced from our daily living: God, Teresa reminds us, “walks among the pots and pans.” With attention-catching quotations, helpful questions for personal reflection or group discussion, and its comprehensive index, The Way of Transformation is an excellent resource for any serious student of St. Teresa of Jesus and a must-read for everyone looking to explore Christian spirituality and prayer more deeply and authentically.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Golden Age of Spanish mysticism has traditionally been read in terms of individual authors or theological traditions. God Made Word, however, considers early modern Spanish mysticism as a question of language and as a discourse that circulated in concrete social, institutional, and geographic spaces. Proposing a new reading of early modern Spanish mysticism, God Made Word traces the struggles over the representation of interiorized spiritual union – the tension between making it known and conveying its unknowability – far beyond the usual canon of mystic literature. Dale Shuger combines a study of genres that have traditionally been the object of literary study, including poetry, theatre, and autobiography, with a language-based analysis of other areas that have largely been studied by historians and theologians. Arguing that these generic separations grew out of an increasing preoccupation with the cultivation and control of interiorized spirituality, God Made Word shows that by tracing certain mystic representations we come to understand the emergence of different discursive rules and expectations for a wide range of representations of the ineffable.

Download or read book A Companion to Ignatius of Loyola written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2014-08-28 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Companion to Ignatius of Loyola aims at placing Loyola’s life, his writings, and spirituality in a broader context of important late medieval and early modern movements and processes that have been appreciated too little by historians who explored Ignatius more as the colossal icon of the so-called Counterreformation than as a man influenced by the dramatic and revolutionary period in which he lived. One book will be never able to cover all aspects of such rich and controversial a figure as Ignatius of Loyola but the fifteen chapters of this volume indicate important directions of current scholarship that reassesses the previous scholarship and suggests new angles of studies on this pivotal figure of early modern period. An interview with editor Robert A. Maryks about this Companion is available on YouTube.

Download or read book Mística oriental y mística cristiana written by Ana María Schlüter Rodés and published by Editorial SAL TERRAE. This book was released on 1998 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El tema del XXII Foro sobre el Hecho Religioso (Majadahonda, 25 a 27 de septiembre de 1998) fue: Repensar la mística. Lo vimos desde el primer momento como una no pequeña audacia, pero prevaleció al fin la convicción de que era ineludible abordarlo, en coherencia con el propósito general de los Foros. Pues la experiencia mística no es sino lo religioso en su máxima intensidad.Dejando para un cuaderno posterior la ponencia "Experiencia mística y Psicoanálisis", reunimos en éste las dos ponencias que buscaron acercarnos a lo esencial del fenómeno. Fueron dos, porque quisimos captar lo que tienen de complementariedad y de contraste las dos mayores tradiciones místicas: la de las religiones orientales, originarias de la India, y la de las religiones del tronco abrahámico.La necesidad de concreción y de hablar de lo que nos es más conocido hizo aconsejable centrar este último tema en la mística cristiana (o, mejor, en la "jesuana"). Una razón análoga aconsejó también centrar la presentación de la mística oriental en la del Budismo Zen, posiblemente la forma que nos queda más cercana y que más atractivo ejerce entre nosotros.El cuaderno podrá interesar a los lectores desde ángulos y preocupaciones diversas. No es ni un tratado ni un ejercicio de mística. No busca lectores místicos, pero no tendría por qué decepcionarlos. Tampoco debería decepcionar a los estudiosos más críticos y racionales del hecho religioso: no propugna un alejamiento sistemático de la razón (como puede quizá encontrarse en ciertas apologías de lo místico): y, por otra parte, ¿no es especialmente razonable la razón cuando sabe reconocer su límite?

Download or read book Misticismo cristiano en Teresa de Avila, desde una perspectiva pastoral written by Joel Torres Rivera and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 868 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Por medio de este trabajo, lo que deseamos es entrar a un campo espiritual muy amplio llamado: La Mística. Dentro del universo tan abarcador que envuelve la misma, encontramos mística sufi, mística judía, como también mística budista, en el hinduismo y mística cristiana, entre muchas. Nos enfocaremos en la última mencionada, la Mística Cristiana, porque es la que nos concierne a la hora de trabajar en Teresa de Ávila, vida y obra desde una perspectiva pastoral, su encuentro místico y trabajo literario. Primeramente, se hablará del concepto Mística, su definición, sus significados, etimología de la palabra. Se abordará su historia desde su origen histórico europeo hasta la vida del maestro místico alemán Eckhart. Como experiencia única y sobrenatural, Mística es una ciencia de las últimas cosas o encuentro con El Absoluto (Dios), o Ente Supremo. Tal experiencia no se condiciona a cierta persona de categoría social en específico, raza, etnia, edad o religión. Lo que sí sabemos, se le otorga a los débiles, pues así los místicos lo mencionan, ʺLa experiencia mística, Dios no se la otroga a los fuentes, sino a los débiles.ʺ Dentro del material investigado, no es nada pues la mística de por sí sigue y seguirá siendo un fenómeno extraordinariamente complejo y profundo, pues siempre saldrá dentro del campo investigado, otra avenida que no había sido explorada. Se abordará en la persona de la experiencia, ʺpersona mística.ʺ La persona mística no se inquieta por desvelar su experiencia o el misterio que lo acogió y aún lo que pudiera mostrar en palabras, sería un sólo hálito de respiro de todo lo que vivió y experimento dentro de la experiencia. Un segundo de experiencia, repercutió en treinta años de cambio en su vida. Tal persona posee unas características únicas que le merecen para lo que fue seleccionado, unn encuentro. Por Misticismo entendemos, ʺla consagración más alta del ser humano,ʺ lo que obtiene por medio de ejercitar la reserva más grande posible hacia el mundo exterior que le rodea, un tanto activa, como pasivamente. Se asocia el misticismo, con una serie de eventos y cosas con las que tiene muy poco que ver; puede ir desde la astrología, hasta todo tipo de ocultismo, entre otras cosas, momentos divinos, trances, arrebatos o arrebatamientos o un éxtasis sobrenatural. Lo que sí sabemos, es que el misticismo ha realizado una significativa constribución al cristianismo. Al entrar en lo que es Mística Cristiana y exponer que la esencia de la misma, no es otra cosa que la respuesta a la presencia original del misterio, que dentro del cristianismo se da en la actitud teologal o como esa vivencia personalizada de la fe. No como en otras ramificaciones donde la experiencia es un enigma o misterio al hablar de lo absoluto o lo trascendente. En la experiencia mística cristiana ese absoluto o cosa transcendental es Dios. Él es el amor superior o fuerza suma. Esa vida cristiana mística que es el encuentro con Dios, empieza cuando la persona llega a tomar conciencia de la presencia del misterio, la reconoce y la acepta dentro de una opción fundamental y radical. Ahora la experiencia cristiana de salvación, es una experiencia de gracia y de amor, es obra de Jesucristo. Esa experiencia de Dios, por medio de Jesús es la raíz de la experiencia.
