Description

Explore the intersection of medieval mysticism and narrative theory in this scholarly work from Routledge. This book examines the theology of spiritual formation developed by fourteenth-century Flemish mystic John of Ruusbroec. It presents a compelling argument that his formational path follows the archetypal structure of the hero's journey. The text begins by establishing a hermeneutical dialogue between scholars of the hero's journey and the teachings of Ruusbroec, utilizing the philosophical framework of Hans-Georg Gadamer. Readers will find a deep analysis of the stages and tropes of the hero's journey through the lenses of prominent thinkers such as Joseph Campbell, Vladimir Propp, Northrop Frye, Rene Girard, and Dean Miller. This volume is an essential resource for those studying contemporary theological explorations in mysticism. It provides a unique way to understand spiritual development by connecting classical theological concepts with established narrative structures used in literary and mythological studies.
