Geraldine E Hodgson | Akateeminen Kirjakauppa

Ms. Hodgson did not attempt to write an encyclopedic handbook which should detail salient facts about every English writer in whom the most relentless searcher could detect a speck of mysticism; but she tried to indicate the particular qualities, the racial aroma of English mysticism, in its different aspects, as shown by men and women of widely separated times and dissimilar temperament and environment. Contents: beginnings of English mysticism; English mystics of the Middle Ages; mystic way in the Middle Ages; English mystics of the 17th century; Anglo-Catholic mystics and others; nature mystics; Tractarians and after.
