St Teresa: Sweet Hunter, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Blurb

"This bilingual edition of St. Teresa of Avila's poems with commentary engages readers with all facets of the Saint's life: the mystic and monastic reformer, the artist and proto-feminist, and the philosopher with a penchant for paradox. St. Teresa of Avila's poems, written in the 16th century, speak to the spiritual longing of our times and invite us to find peace amid turmoil. St. Teresa walked a path of grace, seeking the divine within the human soul, and her poetry lights this path for all of us. This is the first translation of St. Teresa's poetry by a woman poet and captures the saint's spiritual vigor and famously conversational tone in English. That voice is echoed in well-researched commentary strengthened by the translator's willingness to share her spiritual journey"--
