A BRIEF GUIDE TO SPIRITUAL CLASSICS: FROM DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL TO THE POWER OF NOW

Book ID/图书代码： 07980016B87085

English Summary/英文概要： This very readable brief guide examines a wide range of spiritual writing that can be read for enjoyment or inspiration, including some books that come from beyond any religious tradition.

While written from within the Christian tradition, and offering introductions to the writings of medieval mystics, Quakers and modern evangelists, both Protestant and Catholic, it also looks at classics of secular spirituality and writings from different religious traditions.

Each book is explained to convey a brief idea of what each one has to offer the interested reader, while a ’Speed Read’ for each book delivers a quick sense of what each writer is like to read and a highly compressed summary of the main points of the book in question.

This is an excellent reference to dip into, but within sections such as Early Christian Classics, Secular Texts, Lives of Inspiration and Alternative Approaches, the books are arranged chronologically, revealing some interesting juxtapositions and connections between them.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 这本非常易读的简要指南考察了各种各样的精神写作，它们可以被解读为享受或灵感，包括一些超越任何宗教传统的书籍。

基督教传统的写作，以及对中世纪神秘主义者、教友派教徒和现代福音派教徒的介绍，都是新教徒和天主教徒的作品，同时也考察了世俗灵性和不同宗教传统的著作。

每本书传达一个简短的解释每一个提供感兴趣的读者,而“速读”每本书提供了一个快速了解每个作家都喜欢读和高度压缩的总结书的要点问题。

这是一个很好的参考书目，但是在一些章节中，如《早期的基督教经典》，《世俗的文本》，《灵感的生活》和《替代的方法》，这些书是按时间顺序排列的，揭示了一些有趣的排列和它们之间的联系。（WYL）
