About this book

An invitation from Manchester College, Oxford, in the autumn of 1921 led Evelyn Underhill to give the first course of a lectureship in religion newly founded under the will of Professor Upton. She later revised and partly rewrote the lectures for readers. Her subject is the normal spiritual life as lived in the present day, described in ordinary modern terms and set beside recent psychology, including mental analysis and the psychology of suggestion. She leaves out trances and other rare states. Underhill had already published Mysticism and The Essentials of Mysticism.
