The Divine Concern: An Outline Of Christian Mystical Philosophy by Lilian Guise is a comprehensive exploration of Christian mysticism and its philosophical underpinnings. The book delves into the nature of God, the human soul, and the relationship between the two, drawing on the writings of Christian mystics throughout history.Guise begins by examining the concept of God as a transcendent, all-knowing being, and explores the ways in which this understanding of God has evolved over time. She then turns her attention to the human soul, exploring its nature, purpose, and potential for spiritual growth.Throughout the book, Guise draws on the insights of Christian mystics such as Meister Eckhart, Julian of Norwich, and Thomas Merton, among others, to illuminate her analysis. She also explores the ways in which Christian mysticism has influenced the wider philosophical and theological traditions of the West.Ultimately, The Divine Concern provides a rich and nuanced understanding of Christian mysticism and its place in the broader philosophical and theological landscape.
