It studies Hugh and Richard of St Victor, St Bonaventure, important writings which long passed under his name, Hugh of Balma, a Carthusian Prior it seems of the thirteenth century, Tauler's authentic sermons and his \u003cem\u003eInstitutiones\u003c\/em\u003e, a compilation by St Peter Canisius passing under his name, Ruysbroeck, Denis the Carthusian, Kastl's \u003cem\u003eDe Adhaerendo Deo\u003c\/em\u003e, and finally a brief notice of Spanish writers of the earlier sixteenth century. The writer shows that what we miss most in medieval mystical theology is a clear teaching about the stage which intervenes between the abandonment of meditation and the prayer of quiet. -\u003cem\u003eDownside Review\u003c\/em\u003e, January 1955\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e A.
