Paperback. Zustand: Good. This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1908 Excerpt: .you see the infancy of this sublime and celestial greatness? Those pure and virgin apprehensions I had from the womb, and that divine light wherewith I was born are the best unto this day, wherein I can see the Universe. By the Gift of God they attended me into the world, and by His special favour I remember them till now. Verily they seem the greatest gifts His wisdom could bestow, for without them all other gifts had been dead and vain. They are unattainable by book, and therefore I will teach them by experience. Pray for them earnestly: for they will make you angelical, and wholly celestial. Certainly Adam in Paradise had not more sweet and curious apprehensions of the world, than I when I was a child. 2 All appeared new, and strange at first, inexpressibly rare and delightful and beautiful. I was a little stranger, which at my entrance into the world was saluted and surrounded with innumerable joys. My knowledge was Divine. I knew by intuition those things which since my Apostasy, I collected again by the highest reason. My very ignorance was advantageous. I seemed as one brought into the Estate of Innocence. All things were spotless and pure and glorious: yea, and infinitely mine, and joyful and precious. I knew not that there were any sins, or complaints or laws. I dreamed not of poverties, contentions or vices. All tears and quarrels were hidden from mine eyes. Everything was at rest, free and immortal. I knew nothing of sickness or death or rents cr exaction, either for tribute or bread. In the absence of these I was entertained like an Angel with the works of God in their splendour and glory, I saw all in the peace of Eden; Heaven and Earth did sing my Creator's praises, and could not make more melody to Adam, than to me. All Time was Eternity, and.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Thomas Traherne (c. 1636-1674) was an English poet, clergyman, theologian, and religious writer. The present volume is his best known work, first published in 1908 after having been rediscovered in manuscript ten years earlier. Perhaps more than any spiritual writer of his age, Traherne is profoundly cognizant of the Glory of the Lord as it abides in Creation. His writing conveys an ardent, almost childlike love of God, and is compared to similar themes in the works of later poets William Blake, Walt Whitman, and Gerard Manley Hopkins. More than this, he frequently expresses his love for the natural world in a way that anticipates by two centuries the Romantic movement. In Traherne's understanding, sin manifests itself primarily as the result of human ingratitude--in turn a result of not properly beholding the Creation--and offers something far more healthy and far more biblical: the gift of transfigured vision. The clandestine Gnosticism that has haunted Christianity since the Apostolic Age--that which whispers the Creation is not our real home--finds no place in Traherne's theology. The cumulative effect of Traherne's work is to convince the reader that the kingdom of heaven is within you. That is, felicity appears when we learn to see the world as it is, as God sees it.Centuries is probably one of Traherne's final works. The name Centuries is not one of his devising, for that title was added to the manuscript following its discovery in 1896-97. Written in five groupings of one hundred relatively brief meditations each, the Centuries are messages of spiritual direction in the tradition of cura animarum, which has long precedent in Christian spirituality going back at least to Evagrios Ponticos (c. 346-399) and Maximos the Confessor (c. 580-662.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. What did God intend man to be? What will man be when restored by grace? How can this vision drive our thoughts, actions, and-most importantly-our loves?In the wake of the Reformation, Christians all over continental Europe sought to take the theoretical concerns of theology and pair them to the practical. In the wake of the gains made by the Protestant movement, they asked a question posed by all great Christian thinkers before them: what does it mean for man to live as one restored in Christ?Into this conversation comes Thomas Traherne-clergyman, poet, and mystic-to cast a vision of the "shining human creature," the truly virtuous man, and the God who made and loves him. His writing demonstrates how philosophy can befriend poetics, how the intellect can be at home with the imagination of the heart, and how virtue ethics can be transposed into a truly Christian key.In this new modernization-complete with a new introduction-by Colin Chan Redemer, readers can delight in this poetic and masterful seventeenth century text without stumbling over arcane language.Traherne is less well-known than he ought to be, given his rich prose and ability to weave together theology, anthropology, and virtue ethics, all in service of Christian devotion. Traherne's work is a revelation not only for students of the Reformation but for anyone asking foundational questions of ethics and anthropology. We are thrilled to bring what should be a Christian classic back into the Church's awareness.…
