The spiritual espousals and other works

Jan van Ruusbroec

About this book

Presents a selection of writings by the 14th-century Flemish mystic noted for his Trinitarian theology, and for whom the contemplative life involved activity or going out, just as God is always dynamic, thus reflecting the mystic life as not so much a progression of stages, but a simultaneous activity, return, and rest.
