For those wishing to study the nature of contemplative thought and those seeking to incorporate its practice into their daily lives, this volume offers an enlightening body of doctrine. Its author presents and frames extracts from the writings of three of Western Christianity's most revered teachers of mystical theology, expressing what they themselves wrote and thought about their mysticism. In addition to personal accounts by Saint Augustine, Saint Gregory, and Saint Bernard of their religious experiences, Western Mysticism discusses speculative contemplation, defines mysticism and its characteristics, and contrasts contemplative and active lives. Unabridged republication of the classic 1926 edition.
