The Fire of Love (Penguin Classics)

This treatise is partly autobiographical and partly a practical manual to the devout life. Erratic, even turbulent at times, the fire explores the shadow-land beyond the realm of common Christian experience.

The four great English mystics of the fourteenth century—Richard Rolle, Walter Hilton, Julian of Norwich and the anonymous author of “The Cloud of Unknowing”—though in doctrine as in time they are closely related to one another, yet exhibit in their surviving works strongly marked and deeply interesting diversities of temperament. Rolle, the romantic and impassioned hermit; his great successor, that nameless contemplative, acute psychologist, and humorous critic of manners, who wrote “The Cloud of Unknowing” and its companion works; Hilton, the gentle and spiritual Canon of Throgmorton; and Julian, the exquisitely human yet profoundly meditative anchoress, whose “Revelations of Divine Love” are perhaps the finest flower of English religious literature—these form a singularly picturesque group in the history of European mysticism.

This important volume is a modern English translation of Richard Rolle's English writings. Much of the translation is based on Hope Emily Allen's Middle English edition of 1931. It is supplemented by more complete versions of the English Psalter and the Meditations on the Passion. 
It aims at a presentation of Rolle in today's language, and for readers with a modern approach to spirituality who are interested in the religious aims and idioms of the past. The book also seeks to convey some of Rolle's religious fervor, and above all the measured cadence of his prose style, placing him within the context of the ideas and language of his own age.

Excerpt from Yorkshire Writers, Vol. 1: Richard Rolle of Hampole, an English Father of the Church and His Followers And again, when after centuries of darkness, of struggles between con&#64258;icting elements, the new state of things after the Norman Conquest had been sufficiently consolidated to make room for a revival of learning and literature, it is the North that leads. The intellectual and spiritual movement of the 14th century, which centred at Oxford (merton College), and may well be called the Merton College movement, is headed by Northerners. This movement started with the new scholastic system of Duns Scotus, then turned to mysticism under Richard Rolle and Walter Hylton, and ended in Wiclifi'e's religious reform. All these men were Northerners, who studied or taught at Oxford. And the English literature of the first half of the century is almost exclusively confined to the North.
