Description

A scholar turned monk, Isaac combined the increasingly technical vocabulary of the cathedral schools with the spiritual tradition of the monastery. Dialectic is here combined with meditative reflection.


Reviews
Isaac's moral-mystical exposition of scripture can serve as an introduction to "spiritual interpretation" at its best, combining theological depth, psychological insight, and free use of speculative concepts-plus close attention to the texts!Religious Studies Review
His sermons, more rhetorical essays to be studied than homilies to be delivered, give modern readers some examples of how questions of philosophical theology could become part of a monastic spirituality by means of scriptural allegoriesChurch History

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
