Download or read book Journeys of a Mystic Soul in Poetry and Prose written by Cecilia del Nacimiento (Madre) and published by Acmrs Publications. This book was released on 2012 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition, which offers a bilingual selection of poetry and selected prose translated into English by the nun-author Cecilia del Nacimiento (1570-1646), increases contemporary scholars' access to, and therefore understanding of, the Spanish early modern religious and intellectual milieu. A significant, rarely-studied mystic and poet, and member of the Discalced Carmelite Order in the years after St. Teresa of Avila's death, Cecilia del Nacimiento exemplifies the range of possibilities used by women writers who worked within the conventions of hegemonic discourses, while creating a unique literary voice. --Stacey Schlau Professor, Department of Languages and Culture and the Women's Studies Program West Chester University, Pennsylvania
Book Synopsis The Routledge Research Companion to Early Modern Spanish Women Writers by : Nieves Baranda
Download or read book The Routledge Research Companion to Early Modern Spanish Women Writers written by Nieves Baranda and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-08-14 with total page 787 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Spain, the two hundred years that elapsed between the beginning of the early modern period and the final years of the Habsburg Empire saw a profusion of works written by women. Whether secular or religious, noble or middle class, early modern Spanish women actively composed creative works such as poetry, prose narratives, and plays. The Routledge Research Companion to Early Modern Spanish Women Writers covers the broad array of different kinds of writings – literary as well as extra-literary – that these women wrote, taking into consideration their subject positions and the cultural and historical contexts that influenced and were influenced by them. Beyond merely recognizing the individual women authors who had influence in literary, religious, and intellectual circles, this Research Companion investigates their participation in these circles through their writings, as well as the ways in which their texts informed Spain’s cultural production during the early modern period. In order to contextualize women’s writings across the historical and cultural spectrum of early modern Spain, the Research Companion is divided into six sections of general thematic interest: Women’s Worlds; Conventual Spaces; Secular Literature; Women in the Public Sphere; Private Circles; Women Travelers. Each section is subdivided into chapters that focus on specific issues or topics.

Leading academics discuss the importance and legacy of John from historical, theological, philosophical, pastoral, ecumenical, psychological and literary perspectives.

Approaching John in the context of the late medieval mystical tradition, it offers a timely re-evaluation of his work and a significant reassessment of his relevance in the context of current debates.

Book Synopsis Journey Through the Heart of a Modern Mystic by : Sandra Credendino-Nile
Download or read book Journey Through the Heart of a Modern Mystic written by Sandra Credendino-Nile and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a compilation of original inspirational narrative, poetry, prose, art and lyrics, in five parts, honoring the sacredness of human existence and life experiences. All of the poems rhyme and have a rhythm of an almost musical sense. Some contain profound messages regarding present worldly conditions. It inspires to search deep within the soul and reevaluate and explore our priorities and personal relationships, as well as the relationship and love we have with and for ourselves, God, Nature, and Humankind. This work is un-convoluted, honest, compassionate and touching. It is also very clear. This artist finds a way with words that is so understandable and easy to relate to that you don't have to have a degree in literature, philosophy, or even be a fan of the art to appreciate all she has to say. In part three all of the poems pertain to romantic and sensual love. Each one is a short story in itself. Some of them are very personal pieces which acknowledge and express the deepest of human emotions. This is done with truthfulness, wisdom and grace. For the closing pieces the author shares a heartfelt eulogy written for her grandmother (to whom the book is dedicated) and a last poem found by her daughter (shortly before completion of this collection) which was written by the author in 1966. It is a variable testimony of the truthfulness and purity of her work.

Book Synopsis Mystic Wayfarer by : Kristina Sanborn
Download or read book Mystic Wayfarer written by Kristina Sanborn and published by BalboaPress. This book was released on 2013-01-25 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Faith is the Path Grace is the Bridge Surrender is the Gate Love is the Garden Over the course of more years than I care to admit, Ive been witness to Kristinas multi-faceted talents as actress, musician, writer, composer, fellow spiritual seeker and dear friend. Of all of her worthy endeavors, perhaps most compelling is her poetry. It is a reflection of her soul; an out-picturing of her inner and outer travels and, as such, a daily mantra of a visionary creative spirit; an expression for you to share and experience with her in consciousness. Mystic Wayfarer, One Souls Journey Into Light is powerful, purposeful, intimate, and, like Kristina herself, utterly unique in its power to alter your world. It is profoundly personal, yet it reveals a recognizable, emergent collective wisdom. As you revel in each stanza, you are invited to delight in your own quest for ecstasy, seeking union with the Divine through a discovery of your own unfolding divinity, held in each painful, joyful, cherished moment of humanness. ~ Donna Walker, Host/Producer "Pacifica Performance Showcase," KPFK 90.7 FM, Pacifica Radio. Within the rhythm of her excellent poesy, Kristina Sanborn walks us through a life well-earned. One wants to travel with each individual poem in a front pocket, and take it out to look at its map - which means there will be the pleasure of dancing through its theme once more - and then satisfied, ready oneself for the adventure of the following stride. And though they each stand on their own, I found the collection of poems to be mighty and muscular when read in a conscious promenade, for the complete work engages the readers mind to an insistent and necessary wayfaring, a forward motion, a need. The prize is a most certain peace of mind, as her beautiful images leap up and encircle you on your walk - like luminous autumn leaves in a very brave wind. ~ Randall Stuart, Founder & Director of CERIMON HOUSE, A Sanctuary for the Humanities Kristina's poetry, in her new book Mystic Wayfarer, moves in the serpentine ways of women's mystery. Seeping into the soul and dancing you from the inside out. Her journey carries you to places near and far, inside and out and brings you back to the home of your own body with infinite grace and beauty. It has been a joy and a privilege to bear witness to her journey and dance in the mystery with her. May others come to find as much joy, pleasure and value in her words as I have.~ Sandy Pendleton, MFT, Teacher and Coach, Embodied Wisdom
Download or read book Soul's Journey written by Sam Yau and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-25 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than 20 years, I had been on a journey of personal and spiritual growth. I always knew that I am a spirit. With Ryan's death, and my desire to be close to him, simply knowing that I am a soul was no longer enough. One day, a question was stuck in my mind that would not go away. What if I live as a soul in the human clothes, rather than as a human who has a soul. That pondering set in motion a startling inversion of priority. Asking my soul that question with persistence and commitment catapulted me into a surprising journey that I could not have imagined just a few years ago. I received clear messages from Ryan and uncanny sources to write poems. I had never written a serious poem in my life. But my soul's whisper was unceasing. With a series of synchronicities and chance encounters, new friends became the angels in my poetry journey. The calling was unmistakable. I surrendered. My verses, together with the love from my friends and family, have healed me. My poetic musings clarified, distilled, deepened and ingrained the essence of past spiritual experiences onto my being. As I sculpted my poems, my poems were sculpturing me at the same time. Writing poetry has become a most joyous and uplifting spiritual practice for me. The soul's journey is one that discovers the true nature of the Divine and each soul is love itself. Peeling off all layers of reality, only awareness and love remain. My poems have healed and transformed me, by sharing them I hope they will heal and inspire others.

Book Synopsis The Book of the Mutability of Fortune by : Christine (de Pisan)
Download or read book The Book of the Mutability of Fortune written by Christine (de Pisan) and published by . This book was released on 2017-03 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christine de Pizan (ca. 1364–ca. 1431) has long been recognized as France’s first professional woman of letters, and interest in her voluminous and wide-ranging corpus has been steadily rising for decades. During the tumultuous later years of the Hundred Years’ War, Christine’s lone but strong feminine voice could be heard defending women, expounding the highest ideals for good governance, and lamenting France’s troubled times alongside her own personal trials. In The Mutability of Fortune, Christine fuses world history with autobiography to demonstrate mankind’s subjugation to the ceaselessly changing, and often cruel, whims of Fortune. Now, for the first time, this poem is accessible to an English-speaking audience, further expanding our appreciation of this ground-breaking woman author and her extraordinary body of work.
