Description
The Cloud of Unknowing by Anonymous A spiritual guide to contemplation upon God, this 14th-century work is presented in modern English for the first time. Written in Middle English, it survives in only seventeen known manuscripts and advises against seeking knowledge of God through intellect, instead advocating for intense contemplation in the "realm of the unknowing". This edition features a translation by Evelyn Underhill, introducing the work to modern readers with insight into the mind of the Medieval Christian mystic.
