Description:


2021 Reprint of the 1951 Edition. Facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Caryll Houselander (1901-1954) was a lay Roman Catholic ecclesiastical artist, mystic, popular religious writer, and poet. She here examines the phenomenon of guilt in the context of the relationship of man with God in Christ. She shows how problems in this relationship produce aberrant behavior and psychological ailments. More importantly, she asserts that we must be willing to suffer if we are to become sane. She examines the psychological life of famous authors, artists and criminals to find the seed of mental instability in their early lives. She examines the lives of Leopold and Loeb, Peter Kurten, Benedict Joseph Labre, Teresa Martin, Hans Christian Andersen, Franz Kafka, Rainer Maria Rilke, Rimbaud and Charles de Foucauld. An interesting and hard to find title by Houselander.
