The Cell of Self-Knowledge is a book that compiles seven mystical treatises from early English literature, which were originally printed by Henry Pepwell in 1521. The book was edited and introduced by Edmund G. Gardner and was published in 1910. The treatises included in the book are considered to be some of the earliest examples of English mystical literature and cover topics such as the nature of sin, the importance of self-reflection, and the path to spiritual enlightenment. The book provides an insight into the religious and philosophical beliefs of early English society and offers a unique perspective on the development of mystical thought in England. The introduction by Gardner provides historical context and critical analysis of the texts, making it a valuable resource for scholars of English literature and religious studies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
