CHRISTIANITY

The Cloud of Unknowing

An anonymous fourteenth-century English guide to contemplative prayer, teaching that God is reached by love rather than by thought — beneath a "cloud of unknowing".

The Cloud of Unknowing runs to 75 chapters, 392 passages. The whole of it is held here and free to read, searchable by reference or by the words in it.

The edition held here is Underhill (1922) (1922), in English, in the public domain, from Wikisource.

It sits on the estate's shelf of 106 sacred works, beside the complete Douay-Rheims Bible, an atlas of the places named in scripture, a timeline and a genealogy.
