Traités et sermons

The treatises and sermons of Meister Eckhart allude to the detachment of the soul, the birth of the Word, the presence of God in the heart of man; at the same time, they confess the difficulty of expressing that which is there, hidden in the depths: "Who can say this word? No one does so." In his beautiful language, Eckhart teaches us how awareness can emerge. He exhorts true detachment from our mistakes and illusions. This volume, dedicated to one of the greatest philosophers of the Middle Ages, gathers a collection of texts with one particular focus: to bring about the soul's rebirth in God. This version is one of the best currently in existence, and benefits from notes and an introduction by Alain de Libera, specialist in Rhine mysticism.
