Experience timeless classics like never before in this Grand Type Collector's Edition With clear, easy-to-read formatting, this edition is designed for readers who prefer or require larger text without sacrificing the excitement of the original.

A soul embarks on a mystical journey through the depths of spiritual desolation, enduring darkness, doubt, and a haunting sense of abandonment by God. Stripped of comfort and certainty, the seeker must face profound trials that test the limits of faith. Yet within the silence of suffering, moments of revelation appear, illuminating the transformative power of perseverance. Step by step, the journey leads toward divine union, uncovering a path to awakening and spiritual enlightenment. Written in the late 16th century during the Spanish Inquisition, St. John of the Cross's Dark Night of the Soul became one of the most influential works of Christian mysticism. By reflecting on the purifying nature of suffering and the hidden presence of God in darkness, the text offers timeless insight into the human struggle between faith and doubt. Revered by theologians, poets, and seekers alike, it endures as a spiritual guide to inner transformation.
Autorenporträt
St. John of the Cross, born Juan de Yepes y Álvarez in 1542, was a Spanish mystic and poet who played a major role in the Counter-Reformation. After a difficult early life marked by poverty, he became a Carmelite friar and studied theology at the University of Salamanca. His encounter with St. Teresa of Ávila in 1567 led him to join her reform of the Carmelite Order, focusing on a return to its original contemplative lifestyle.Despite his spiritual commitment, John faced significant opposition, including imprisonment and mistreatment by his own order for his role in the reforms. During this time, he wrote some of his most important works, including Dark Night of the Soul, which became foundational for Christian mysticism. His poetry, rich in symbolic and allegorical imagery, reflects the soul's journey toward union with God.St. John of the Cross was canonized in 1726 and declared a Doctor of the Church for his profound contributions to Christian theology and spirituality. His legacy continues to inspire spiritual seekers worldwide, particularly through his exploration of the transformative nature of suffering and contemplation.
