Description

Centuries by Thomas Traherne is a profound work of spiritual direction that explores the nature of God and creation. Written in five groupings of one hundred brief meditations, this collection conveys an ardent love of God and a deep appreciation for the natural world. Traherne's theology offers a unique perspective on sin and redemption, positing that true happiness lies in beholding the world as it is, as God sees it. This message of spiritual direction has its roots in Christian tradition, drawing on the writings of Evagrios Ponticos and Maximos the Confessor. Published posthumously in 2020, Centuries provides a valuable insight into the life and work of this lesser-known but significant spiritual writer.
