This collection features four seminal works of medieval mystical theology: “The Cloud of Unknowing,” “The Mystical Theology of Saint Denis,” “The Book of Privy Counselling,” and “An Epistle on Prayer.” Unlike traditional devotional writings that emphasize understanding God through Christ’s Passion and humanity, these texts explore a transcendent God beyond human comprehension and language. They advocate for contemplation, calmness, and love as the pathways to divine understanding.
