What is mysticism in the Christian context, and how has it shaped this tradition from Jesus to the present? How does it compare with mysticism in other religions? Why did women’s voices become prominent in the Middle Ages and the Catholic “counter-reformation,” but mainly in mystical writings? And are the spiritual practices many churches embrace today rooted in Christian mysticism or borrowed from Buddhism and New Age spirituality?
In this live presentation, Leandro Palacios of Toronto Centre Place addresses these and other questions as we begin our exploration of Christian mysticism.
This series traces the development of Christian mysticism from biblical and patristic roots through medieval and modern expressions. We explore influential writings from Gregory of Nyssa, Pseudo-Dionysius, Hildegard of Bingen, Bernard of Clairvaux, Meister Eckhart, Julian of Norwich, Catherine of Siena, Teresa of Ávila, John of the Cross, as well as contemporary voices.
This lecture is part of our series exploring Christianity and the Bible from an academic perspective through history, mythology, archaeology, theology, and biblical studies.
