Description

Dark Night of the Soul narrate the journey of the soul to mystical union with God. The soul experiences two necessary purgations on the path to Divine union: the first purgation is of the sensory or sensitive part of the soul, the second of the spiritual part. These purgations comprise the first of the three stages of the mystical journey, followed by those of illumination and then union.


St. John's poem is derived from the works of Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite in the sixth century. He did not give the poem a title, but later wrote two book-length commentaries on his poem, one of which was titled The Dark Night. The time and place of composition are not certain, though it is likely the poem was written between 1577 and 1579.


This case laminate collector's edition includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket.

About the Author
Of the Cross, St John: - "John of the Cross (1542 - 14 December 1591) was a Carmelite friar, priest of converso origin, a mystic, and Roman Catholic saint. He was a major figure of the Spanish Counter-Reformation and is one of thirty-six Doctors of the Church. John of the Cross is well-known for his writings. Both his poetry and his studies on the development of the soul are considered the summit of mystical Spanish literature and among the greatest works of all Spanish literature.John of the Cross is considered one of the foremost poets in Spanish. Although his complete poems add up to fewer than 2500 verses, two of them, the Spiritual Canticle and the Dark Night of the Soul, are widely considered masterpieces of Spanish poetry, both for their formal style and their rich symbolism and imagery. His theological works often consist of commentaries on the poems. All the works were written between 1578 and his death in 1591."
