About This Item
New York: Continuum Publishing, 1994. first edition. hardcover. Book VG+: touch of dust else clean, square, tight, unmarked/DJ NF: clean, NOT clipped.. 8vo 166pp. from rear flap: "The purpose of this book is to explore the depth and range of affinity between Beguine writings and those of Meister Eckhart, the "prince of medieval mystics." The book shows that, far from being a theological and philosophical aberration, Eckhart, as a preacher and theologian, was closely in touch with the dominant concerns of his world, preeminently the rising spiritual aspirations of women. It reveals the extent to which Eckhart was indebted to the women mystics of the preceding generation and the degree to which he sympathized with the vision and strivings of these women." #02442.
