The first English translation of the works of Margaret Ebner (c. 1291-1351), a Dominican nun and mystic, offers a unique glimpse into the inner life and thought of a woman who was considered to be holy even during her lifetime. These writings reveal a spiritual, clearly Christocentric worldview and relate a great deal about the struggle for and the meaning of liberation--spiritually and intellectually--then and now.
The most in-depth and scholarly panorama of Western spirituality ever attempted
In one series, the original writings of the universally acknowledged teachers of the Catholic, Protestant, Eastern Orthodox, Jewish, Islamic and Native American traditions have been critically selected, translated and introduced by internationally recognized scholars and spiritual leaders.
The texts are first-rate, and the introductions are informative and reliable. The books will be a welcome addition to the bookshelf of every literate religious persons". -- The Christian Century
