A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

At a time when women were effectively silenced in church, St Teresa of �vila (1515-82) represents an extraordinary exception. Early struggles with her spiritual advisers gave way to an increasing confidence that she was inspired by God. She reformed the Carmelite Order she had entered as a young woman, and founded convents all over Spain, yet still found time to write a series of spiritual classics on the life of prayer which are characterized by a robust common sense, a directness of style, and a strong and positive vision of God's love at work in individual lives. This collection of essays by leading scholars in Teresian studies covers topics in history, art history, literature, theology, and spirituality, in a fresh assessment of her significance five hundred years after her birth.

Description de la librairie

Specialising in good literature, the arts, history, philosophy, science and local interest titles, the Colchester Bookshop occupies three floors of one of the town centre's most recognisable buildings: the archway leading to Tymperleys. Drop in for a browse, be amazed by our quirky rooms and staircases, and wonder at the surviving medieval hall roof of the Colchester home of William Gilberd (1544-1603), physician to Elizabeth I and one of the world's greatest early scientists.
