Product Description

Andrew Louth traces the Christian mystical tradition from Plato and Platonism, through figures such as Origen, Gregory of Nyssa, Denys the Areopagite, and Augustine, to St John of the Cross. In doing so he explores the diverse, and often conflicting influences that are to be found in Christian spirituality. An additional chapter brings this classic study completely up to date.
