Martin Luther wrote of this 14th century devotional work that _next to the Bible and St. Augustine, no other book has come to my attention from which I have learned--and desired to learn--more concerning God, Christ, man and what all things are._ Theologica Deutsch--the title this work has most commonly appeared under--has been through 190 editions in ten languages throughout its 600-year history. Now drawing on the new German critical edition of the work, David Blamires brings us the definitive English translation of this classic mystical work, The Book of the Perfect Life.

"As modern man has lost faith in a world from which God seems excluded, many have turned with hope to the writings of the mystics—the men and women who drowned their egos in the experience of the divine. In Varieties of Mystic Experience, Professor Elmer O'Brien guides the reader through fourteen centuries mysticism. he distinguishes the authentic from the inauthentic and in brilliant selections from the mystics themselves enables the reader to judge for himself the glorious variety of ways in which men have confronted the Divine." --
