Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Saint Teresa of Spain This book does not pretend to be either exhaustive or original; it does not challenge comparison with the many excellent biographies of Saint Teresa de Jesus which already exist, foremost among them the late Mrs. Cunninghame Graham´s Santa Teresa, Her Life and Times. If apology be needed for trespassing on a field already occupied, I can only urge that my point of view is perhaps a little different both from Mrs. Cunninghame Graham´s, and also from that of the religious writers who have addressed themselves to the faithful of Saint Teresa´s Church. I have aimed rather at the sympathetic of every creed; chiefly perhaps at the women who, daily reaching forth unto new spiritual domains, are glad to claim solidarity with the great women who have gone before, and have gained them the land they already possess. Teresa does not come before us as the ideal wife and mother, still less as the typical ensnarer of men, neither of which ideals is precisely what is in the mind of the advancing woman of to-day. She is one of the world´s great single women; that one of the virgin saints who seems nearest to us in method and in practice. Would there were more of us like her in spirit and in aim! I have wished to dwell not on the accidents of her age and sphere, but on the ideas which moved her; and so far as possible I have tried to give them in her own words. Alas!
