Revelations of Divine Love

Description

One of medieval mysticism’s most strikingly original works, this book was written by a 14th-century anchoress whose fervent prayers triggered a series of divine visions that revealed the intensity of Christ’s sufferings. The holy woman’s message of God’s love – expressed in immediate, compelling terms – continues to influence modern Christian thought. This edition features both the short text and a later, more complex rendering as well as a new Foreword by Kaya Oakes, the author of Radical Reinvention.
