Book Synopsis The Mystical Theology of Saint Bernard by : Etienne Gilson
Download or read book The Mystical Theology of Saint Bernard written by Etienne Gilson and published by Cistercian Studies Series. This book was released on 1990 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the half century since its first publication in English, this small book has become a classic of medieval theology. Directing his attention to 'perhaps the most neglected aspect' of Cistercian mysticism, the great French medievalist and philosopher Etienne Gilson directs attention to 'that part of Bernard's] theology on which his mysticism rests', his 'systematics'. Cistercian Publications brings this important book back into print in celebration of the nine-hundredth anniversary of the birth of Saint Bernard, hoping that new generations of scholars will find it food for thought and further research.

Download or read book Honey and Salt written by St. Bernard and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2007-05-01 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bernard of Clairvaux, the twelfth-century monk who wrote that "Jesus is honey in the mouth, melody in the ear, a cry of joy in the heart," was both a mystic and a reformer. His writings reveal a mystical theology that Thomas Merton, a monastic heir to Bernard’s Cistercian reform, says "explains what it means to be united to God in Christ but (also) shows the meaning of the whole economy of our redemption in Christ." Critical of the monastic opulence of his times, Bernard exhorted his monks to consider that "Salt with hunger is seasoning enough for a man living soberly and wisely." Martin Luther believed that Bernard was "the best monk that ever lived, whom I admire beyond all the rest put together." Bernard's zeal and charisma led to the reform of Christian life in medieval Europe. Today it is reported that Pope Benedict XVI keeps Bernard's treatise Advice to a Pope close at hand for spiritual support. Honey and Salt is an original selection for the general reader of Bernard’s sermons, treatises, and letters.
Book Synopsis On Loving God by : Saint Bernard (of Clairvaux)
Download or read book On Loving God written by Saint Bernard (of Clairvaux) and published by Cistercian Publications Books. This book was released on 1995 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saint Bernard's On Loving God is one of his most delightful, and most widely read, works. It stands in the tradition of the Fathers of the Church, but it carries patristic teaching into the Middle Ages and into the cloister. Its famous affirmation that God is to be loved without limit, sine modo, is taken directly from the letters of Saint Augustine. While the tract is not an example of scholastic theology, it shows a typically twelfth-century love of logic and an unexpectedly precise use of terminology. In his analystic commentary, Emero Stiegman not only introduces readers to the abbot of Clairvaux's thought, but carefully analyses his language, his logic and his theology. In doing so, he demonstrates the vital importance of reading medieval authors on their own terms, without superimposing on them categories favored by later generations, even our own.
Book Synopsis The Treatise of St. Bernard, Abbat of Clairvaux, Concerning Grace and Free Will, Addressed to William, Abbat of St. Thiery by : Saint Bernard (of Clairvaux)
Download or read book The Treatise of St. Bernard, Abbat of Clairvaux, Concerning Grace and Free Will, Addressed to William, Abbat of St. Thiery written by Saint Bernard (of Clairvaux) and published by . This book was released on 1920 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The treatise of St. Bernard De Gratia et Libero Arbitrio was written at some time shorly previous to the year 1128, and therefore the author had attained his thirty-eighth year. The subject of the treatise was suggested, as is plain from the text itself, as the result of a public, or at any rate semi-public, discussion with some person unknown, in which St. Bernard, in strongly commending the work of grace, had seemed to lay himself open to the charge of unduly minimizing the function of free will. An attempt has been made to present the argument of the treatise by means of a synopsis, in which it is sought to familiarize the reader with the technology of the original, an important consideration from a theological point of view. - Introduction.

Download or read book Western Mysticism written by Butler and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-10-12 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A renewed interest in the spiritual, with an increasing number of people today wishing to incorporate the contemplative in their active lives, prompts the reissue of this classic work, a doctrine that is at once elevated and practical. The writings are meant to be studied from three distinct points of view: religious philosophy, material for the study of those states between mind and body such as ecstasy and trance, and for the sake of their mysticism. Drawn from the writings and teachings of Saint Augustine, Saint Gregory and Saint Bernard, the writings form a coordinated body of doctrine with what three great teachers of mystical theology in the Western Church have written concerning their own religious experience and the theories they based on it. In addition, the book discusses such important topics as speculative contemplation, what mysticism is, the characteristics of Western mysticism, the practical, and the contrasts between the contemplative and active lives. No student of mysticism can possibly afford to neglect a volume so full of valuable suggestions and real insight into spiritual conditions.
Book Synopsis Mystical Theology and Platonism in the Time of Cusanus by : Jason Aleksander
Download or read book Mystical Theology and Platonism in the Time of Cusanus written by Jason Aleksander and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-10-20 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mystical Theology and Platonism in the Time of Cusanus engages with the history of mystical theology and Neoplatonic philosophy through the lens of the 15th century philosopher and theologian, Nicholas of Cusa. The volume comprises nineteen essays that break down the barriers between medieval and Renaissance studies, reinterpreting Cusanus’ place in the history of thought by exploring the archive that informed his thinking, while also interrogating his works by exploring them from the standpoint of their later reception by modern philosophers and theologians. The volume also offers tribute to the career of Donald F. Duclow, a leading scholar in the field of Cusanus studies in particular and of the history of mystical theology and Neoplatonic philosophy more generally.
Book Synopsis The Mystical Theology of the Eastern Church by : Vladimir Lossky
Download or read book The Mystical Theology of the Eastern Church written by Vladimir Lossky and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 1991-08-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lossky's great work on Eastern Orthodoxy covers the whole range of its spirituality and theology. Combining careful theology with the warmth of the deep personal devotion of the author, 'The Mystical Theology of the Eastern Church' is the best introduction to Orthodox teaching and theology available. It provides a reliable and informative presentation of the theological spirit of the Eastern Church. His account makes clear the profound theological differences underlying the practices of the East and West, and yet it is also an important contribution to ecumenism and to the life of Christian devotion. It brings together subjects that are more usually separated, asserting that there is no true mysticism that is not firmly rooted in theology, and no true theology that is not experienced, and therefore mystical. The tradition of the Eastern Church is presented as a mystical theology with doctrine and experience mutually conditioning each other.
