Abstract:

Abstract This article explores the relationships between spirituality, spiritual theology, and practical theology. It proposes a synthesis of these disciplines – practical spiritual theology – as a method and methodology for retrieving the wisdom of historical Christian mystics for the purposes of sustaining and inspiring the spiritual life of contemporary Christians. The 14th century English mystic, Walter Hilton, is used to illustrate this synthesis in practice.

Abstract:

Because of her untimely death Edith Stein does not directly articulate a coherent theology of the human person. Nevertheless, can a coherent theology of the human person be discerned in her work? This article argues yes. Given this answer, what coheres this theology gleaned from her diverse work? It is argued that the answer is Stein’s phenomenological philosophy of empathy. To explain these conclusions Stein’s philosophy of empathy is first considered followed by reflections on biblical and contemporary exemplars of empathy who interested Stein. It is contended that Stein’s theory of empathy

Abstract:

In this article, I will examine St. Edith Stein’s theory of religious language. Stein, who was both a professional philosopher and a mystic, and deeply rooted both in the tradition of negative theology and early phenomenology, held a peculiar version of univocity with regard to religious language. On the one hand, our concepts have something objectively in common with the thing they signify. On the other hand, our concepts are merely representations of the real. Therefore, when mystics say that God can be addressed “without words or images,” this does not entail anti-realism or non-cognitivism

Abstract:

The aim of this article is to philosophically explore the tension between “the God of the philosophers” and “the God of religious experience.” This exploration will focus on the mystical theology of the 16th c. Spanish mystic St. John of the Cross. It will be argued that a satisfactory resolution of the aforementioned tension cannot occur on the basis of the monopolar theism that has dominated the Abrahamic religions. That is, a better understanding of mystics in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam can occur via dipolar theism as articulated by contemporary process philosophers in the Abrahamic r

ABSTRACTThis essay addresses two related challenges facing educators who teach about medieval saints, mystics, and their texts. The first is how to relate to the theologies and spiritualities of people who inhabited cultures radically distinct from the modern and postmodern periods. The second regards the contemporary tendency to evaluate medieval believers in terms of modernist intellectual frameworks, most notably clinical psychological categories. A case study approaching the medieval mystic Angela of Foligno from three disciplinary points of view—clinical psychology, historical theology, a

This paper explores all the stations al-Ǧunayd explained such as asceticism, poverty, patience, contentment and reliance on Allah .

This is, the article argues, because he grounded his path on the Qur’an and the Sunna while also emphasising that the highest station for a human is to be a perfect servant of God, which is in accorda

The paper addresses the relations between N. Berdyaev's philosophy and currently accepted attitudes in psychoanalysis and existential therapy in their connection with Byzatine mystical theology.

The main emphasis is on the bodily dimension of experience, which supports the apophatic way of cognition. Hermeneutics of methodological principles is used in Berdyaev's philosophy and psychoanalysis with elements of historical and philosophical reconstr

Abstract:

De la vie d'oraison is an early and neglected work by Jacques Maritain. Exploring its major themes and biographical context reveals a tension in Maritain between his commitment to orthodox Catholic mystical theology and his belief in his godfather Léon Bloy's unique, tripartite vocation of lay mystic, prophet, and artist. This tension, I argue, has been overlooked due to Maritain's public image as an esteemed Thomist philosopher, but becomes clear when we study Maritain's defense of Bloy, especially in his dialogues with his Dominican peers and church authorities. I suggest that this tension r

Abstract:

This article proposes to draw significant anthropological implications of a personally focused and historically contextualized understanding of revelation. Building on the work of Christoph Theobald, it uses Karl Rahner’s and Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s theology of discipleship to retrieve and expand Dei Verbum’s understanding of human history as revelation. Revelation is both gift and vocation. The gift that is revelation defines for those who receive it a new vocation: to bear witness to the truth in their person, words, and deeds. This understanding is then put to the test of mystical experience

The divine beauty, the relationship between worship and theology, and mysticism have been expressed outwardly. The divine beauty of Orthodox churches and icons is the extension of the ceremony of worship, and the Orthodox ceremony of worship is the resource of theology and the revelation of God,

This paper explores mysticism as seen in Ernesto Cardenal’s El Evangelio en Solentiname (The Gospel in Solentiname), aiming at both defining Cardenal as a revolutionary and a traditional mystic, shaped by Thomas Merton’s influence and by Latin American political circumstances.

Yet, in the context of Latin American 20th-century struggles for liberation, mysticism became contemplation of God while the individual is committed to the community.

Religious visions are personal experiences in which individuals have a sensory experience that is in some way supernatural or divine. In the context of medieval Christianity, true visionaries were understood to have received revelations directly from God, without mediation from priests. In the tradition of the medieval Church and society, women were relegated to a subordinate role; thus, when the mystic who experienced a vision from God was a woman, the situation required careful interpretation, for in bypassing the intermediary authority of the priest, the woman was potentially subverting a h

Although Calvin fully acknowledges the mystic nature of this union, he carefully prevents his doctrine from falling into that of mysticism. I explicate the different meanings with which Calvin uses the image of engrafting and the firm limits he places around it. The result shows how Calvin’s exegesis feeds into the development of a doctrine.

Abstract This study puts forward the thesis that the heavenly ascent in 2Cor 12,2–4 is a sarcastic parody of Paul’s Corinthian opponents. This view modifies and combines the minority views of Hans Dieter Betz (1972), that the account is a self-parody, and of Michael D. Goulder (2003), that it is written of someone other than Paul. Drawing on Matthew Pawlak’s recent work on Paul’s use of sarcasm (2023) and through critical comparison of both Jewish apocalyptic texts and Graeco-Roman use of illeism, the article argues that a sarcastic interpretation of the heavenly ascent not only makes greater

Abstract:

Czech theologian and philosopher Karel Říha (1923–2016) followed the thinking of Maurice Blondel. He wanted to expand and deepen the basis of transcendental philosophy. He perceived the possibilities of a new metaphysics, which would be established only in a triadic way of thinking—knowledge, wanting, Being. He originally believed that the basic philosophical theory was the theory of moral conversion. Říha comprehended the event of moral conversion as a mystic turn, a transformation in which we find ourselves by realising ourselves in devotion to others. In this transformation, the striving fo

Abstract:

Hildegard, the twelfth-century Benedictine abbess of Bingen, is best understood not as a mystic, but as a visionary prophetess. The spectacular visions that introduce the sections of her three great works, theScivias, theLiber Vitae Meritorum, and theLiber Divinorum Operumhave dazzled modern readers, but they are not the only or even the most important expressions of her prophetic inspiration. Her prophetic insight also allowed her to understand the figures of the Scriptures and relate them to contemporary theological and political questions. Nor can her visions, however central they are to he

Abstract:

This study explores the nature of “The theology of the saints” and its contribution to theological inquiry today. John Paul II in his Apostolic Letter, Novo Millennio Ineunte (2001) officially applied the term “lived theology” to the lives of the saints. This kind of theology, known as scientia amoris (knowledge of faith through an experience of love), is not in opposition to classical theological reflection as scientia fidei (knowledge of faith through reason). Regarding the formulation of ideas, on one side, the mystic saints usually express their “l

Abstract:

This essay tries to analyse the way in which the Jesuit priest Giovanni Battista Riccioli (1598-1671) and his ideas were evaluated by traditional and modern Historiographies, from seventeenth to twentieth century, in secular and ecclesiastic ambiances in Italy, having in mind the possibility of historical forgetfulness of the contribution this Jesuit offered to modern science in his century. For this, the use of Contextual, Historiographical and Epistemological approaches aims to understand more deeply the man Riccioly, his ideas in the debates of his time, from his Cosmology, Jesuit Mystic, E

Abstract:

Paul Tillich borrows central motifs in his trinitarian theology from Jacob Boehme, the seventeenth-century German mystic. Tillich draws a picture of divine life as embroiled in a conflict of opposites between the abyss and the light of the Logos. Boehme also depicted divine life as engaged in inner turmoil. But, unlike Tillich, Boehme's experience and imagery suggest that the eternal divine self-contradiction could only be solved in human consciousness and history. The paper suggests that trinitarian thinkers such as Tillich cannot give to creation and its processes the same seriousness as doe

The recently canonised Dutch Carmelite Titus Brandsma (1881–1942), World War II martyr, mystic, Catholic journalist and historian of spirituality, was also – what is less known – a talented poet. The article recalls his early occasional poetry, written in Dutch and Frisian between 1898 and 1906 for members of his immediate family. Its literary characteristics are presented, demonstrating that this poetry is a valuable testimony to the saint’s views on human life from an eschatological perspective, including topics on the family, marriage, and the relationship between children and parents.

Abstract Around the turn of the 17th century, the Swedish antiquary and mystic Johannes Bureus (1568–1652) claimed to have discovered the primordial theology and science of his Scandinavian ancestors encoded in their system of writing, the runic alphabet, inspired in large part by earlier Christian interpretations of the Kabbalah. In the leadup to the Swedish intervention in the Thirty Years’ War, he viewed the discovery as the ecumenical solution to the confessional divisions that were rending Europe asunder.

The article is a theological and spiritual reflection on the spiritual doctrine of the French mystic St. Elizabeth of the Trinity OCD (Élisabeth Catez), who lived from 1880 to 1906. The present study seeks to explain the reason why apart from cataphatic (positive) expressions, characteristic of nuptial Carmelite mysticism, which Elizabeth represents, her writings sometimes contain apophatic (negative) expressions, emphasizing the unknowability of God. The historical and literary, hermeneutical, philological and comparative analyses of her work lead to the following conclusions; as a Carmelite

As a creative–critical writer and researcher, I explored the junctures where Julian’s poetics intersect with trauma-informed theology.

The 14th century mystic Julian of Norwich’s theology, dissolving gender binaries and incorporating medieval constructs of the female into the Trinity, captivates scholars across rhetorical, literary, and religious studies. A “pioneering feminist”, as Cheryll Glenn dubs her, scholarship attempts to account for the ways in which Julian’s theology circumvented the religious authority of male clerics. Some speculate that Julian’s authority arises from a sophisticated construction of audience (Wright). Others situate Julian in established traditions and structures of the Church, suggesting that she

ABSTRACT Volker Leppin’s biography of Luther has resulted in a lively discussion in German historiography. In this article, the author addresses some of the reviews of his book by explaining his view of the major points of contention. For example, he argues for a critical interpretation of Luther’s ego-documents, especially those of the older Luther who reflected on his earlier years, in particular the alleged “Reformation turning point.” Leppin regards the idea of the closeness of God as Luther’s leading theological concept, which the reformer developed further both in the medieval-mystic tra
