AI-generated Review of “The Spiritual Teachings of Madame Guyon, Including Translations into English From Her Writings”:


Snippets and Summary:

During the powerful reign of King Louis XIV, a controversy called the Great Conflict developed about the validity of mystical experience. In particular, questions were raised about an aristocratic woman, Madame Guyon, who wrote a theology of the interior life lived with God. As the controversy intensified and grew, many in the Roman Catholic Church hierarchy debated about this form of mysticism called Quietism. The controversy eventually demanded the judgment of a committee of cardinals and Pope Innocent XII in 1699.

"The Spiritual Teachings of Madame Guyon, Including Translations into English From Her Writings" Description:

The Open Library:

During the era of Louis XIV, Madame Guyon wrote her theological ideas about pure love. Her books A Short and Easy Method of Prayer, Spiritual Torrents, and her Autobiography became popular throughout Europe and the New World. Her fame led to her personal Inquisition and decade long incarceration. Madame Guyon’s influence on Romanticism and Protestantism endow her books with both historical and spiritual influence. This anthology presents excerpts from Madame Guyon’s major works. The introduction explains the historical struggle about Quietism (called the Great Conflict) of which she was a part, as well as placing her in the apophatic mystic tradition. This work includes translations of major portions of A Short and Easy Method of Prayer, Spiritual Torrents, Autobiography, and Commentary on Song of Songs. Portions from Guyon’s translated poetry and letters of spiritual direction complete this volume. Annotations provide needed information to understand both the history of this important era and Guyon’s influential theology of pure love.
