Abstract:
A central poem in Van Wyk Louw’s Tristia (1962), is “H. Teresa van Avila flap uit” (literally translated: “Saint Teresa of Avila talks too much/babbles uncontrollably”. This article illustrates how intertextual reading helped to clarify the poem. Teresa of Avila’s The way of perfection (a translation of the Spanish work El Camino de la Perfección, 1573) is the intertext of the Van Wyk Louw poem. In the last section of the article it is shown how the figure of St. Teresa of Avila is central not only to Van Wyk Louw’s Tristia (1962), but also to the oeuvre of Sheila Cussons, which underlines a strong intertextuality between these two Afrikaans oeuvres.

Abstract:
This paper explores Christian contemplative meditation, focusing on the prayer of Recollection as it is developed especially by Evelyn Underhill (1875-1941) and St. Teresa of Avila (1550-1582). It outlines the practice and explores possible theoretical and therapeutic dynamics, including some comparative reflections of this form of Christian meditation with Buddhist Samatha Vipassanā (calming insight) meditation and Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy. It also draws on the transpersonal theory of philosopher Michael Washburn, in exploring resistances, obstacles, and goals of such mystical practices.

Full text
Abstract:
In this thesis I attempt to illustrate that there is common ground between Christianity and Islam in the area of spirituality. The procedure taken is one of describing the spiritual path from the perspectives of al-Ghazālī (d. 1111) and St. Teresa of Ávila (d. 1582) in a comparative manner. The three-fold categorization of the spiritual path as consisting of the stages of purgation, illumination, and union, is used to provide the format for this comparison. Chapter one deals with biographical material and historical contexts, noting similarities in their experiences, contexts, and contributions. Chapter two discusses the beginning stage of the spiritual path — purgation — dealing with the requirements of renunciation of the world and of one's self, repentance and the battle of the spirit with and victory over the flesh. The next stage — illumination — comprises chapter three. Here it is seen how the purgation of the self from all vice is a prerequisite to receiving divine manifestations to the soul. The roles of prayer, obedience, and the cultivation of virtues are discussed. Union, the final stage, is dealt with in chapter four. The meaning of union is discussed, including its various degrees, and how the mystic is consequently transformed. The conclusion summarizes the findings of the previous chapters. It is seen that there is a great deal of commonality in the teachings of al-Ghazālī and St. Teresa; but differences also arise marking their spiritualities as being uniquely Muslim and Christian, respectively.

O presente trabalho defende a tese de que, nas distintas Moradas da Obra do Castelo Interior de Teresa, é possível visualizar e nominar fases do desenvolvimento humano e espiritual (diferentes graus de amor), nas quais a pessoa se encontra. Mostra a mística teresiana como alternativa para se compreender o amor de Deus e a espontânea resposta a essa gratuidade divina, experenciada e vivida, pela pessoa, na fé e na sua intensidade. As fases de desenvolvimento humano e espiritual assinalam o desabrochar da maturidade no amor que se plenifica na transcendência de si, na entrega dedicada ao serviço dos irmãos e irmãs e à sociedade em geral, gerando conversão e transformação da mesma, anúncio e continuidade dos valores propostos por Jesus Cristo.
The present work defends the thesis that the different moradas of the book of the Interior Castle of Teresa of Ávila, can visualize different phases of development human and spiritual (or different degrees of love), in which a person finds himself. And at the same time, these phases can be nominated. The thesis proposes a Teresian mystic as an alternative for understanding the love of God by the person and the consequent response to this love, experienced and lived in its intensity. The development of the phases marks the way to maturity in love that deepens the transcendence of self in service to our brothers and sisters, to society in general, generating conversion and transformation of it, the announcement and the continuity of the values proposed by Jesus Christ.

Tyler, Peter Mark. "Mystical strategies and performative discourse in the 'Theologia Mystica' of Teresa of Avila : a Wittgensteinian analysis." Thesis, Durham University, 2009. http://etheses.dur.ac.uk/1931/.

Full text
Abstract:
The thesis argues that a Wittgensteinian approach to the 'mystical' writings of a 'mystical theologian' such as Teresa of Avila reveals that rather than exhibiting an ontological mysticism these writings are better understood as enacting what are termed 'mystical strategies' or 'performative discourse'. The notion that both Wittgenstein and Teresa employ what are termed 'therapeutic or transformational strategies' to effect change in their readers is central to its argument. In this respect the thesis concludes that their writing is fundamentally transformational in character.

Abstract:
This chapter examines poems from Bishop’s early, middle and late work. It focuses in particular on the way she uses landscapes, animals, other people and objects to characterize her speakers. The chapter argues that Bishop's reason for adopting this strategy can be found in her reading and understanding of a certain religious tradition, particularly various classics of religious autobiography, including those of St Augustine, Kierkegaard and Teresa of Avila, and the religious poetry of Herbert and Hopkins. This leads to a discussion of Baudelaire's role in her work, an aspect that has not been widely discussed in Bishop scholarship so far.

Abstract:
The concept of the ‘Female’ Baroque, derives from Julia Kristeva; the chief objective of this study is to examine the distinctive contribution of women writers and artists, thus addressing a recurring omission in previous scholarship. This chapter discusses major models for women: the Virgin Mary, Mary Magdalen, and the ideal Petrarchan Mistress. Along with the historical realities of patriarchal exploitation of women in the early modern period, I explore the emergent energies of women’s writings, examining whether there were distinctive ‘female’ experiences articulated through early modern discourse. Kristeva’s emphasis on St Teresa of Avila provides a model of the Female Baroque; her concept of ‘intimate revolt’ and her important distinction between the semiotic and the symbolic also inform this discussion.
