This classic of the interior life and Christian mysticism by the sainted 16th-century Spanish mystic and Carmelite nun focuses on the practice of prayer. Modern readers will appreciate its warmth and accessibility.

Originally published in 1940, this book examines the Romantic Movement in Spain from its decline and dwindling popularity after 1837, and the rise of eclecticism, to its final expressions around 1860. Peers looks at key texts in the history of the Romantic style, as well as the real meaning of Romanticism in Spain at this time.
