Résumé
The Mystical Element of Religion (Vol. 1 & 2) is von Hügel's major study of Christian spirituality, organized around Saint Catherine of Genoa and her circle. Volume I reconstructs Catherine's milieu, texts, hospital service, and purgatorial teaching with archival care; Volume II extracts from this dossier a philosophy of religion: the interplay of the mystical, the intellectual-critical, and the institutional elements.
In learned, measured prose rich in distinctions and documentation, the book places late-medieval devotion in dialogue with modern historical criticism and comparative reflection, without surrendering devotional seriousness. Baron Friedrich von Hügel (1852-1925), an Austrian-born, London-based Catholic lay theologian, united disciplined prayer with exacting scholarship. Multilingual and engaged with biblical criticism and psychology, he navigated the Modernist crisis; his famed triad reflects his biography-reverence for authority, critical rigor, and experiential piety.
Scholars of theology, spirituality, and medieval studies will prize this classic for its method and balance: historical precision joined to spiritual discernment. For students and seekers, it offers sober guidance on ascetic formation and institutional checks, showing how religious experience can be both tested and nourished. Quickie Classics summarizes timeless works with precision, preserving the author's voice and keeping the prose clear, fast, and readable-distilled, never diluted.
Enriched Edition extras: Introduction · Synopsis · Historical Context · Brief Analysis · 4 Reflection Q&As · Editorial Footnotes.
