the cloud of unknowing

We have started a weekly series dedicated to exploring one of the classic texts of Western Christian mysticism, The Cloud of Unknowing. This page provides resources for studying the text. To see posts on this text simply use the category feature of this blog (on the right sidebar) to locate all the posts on this topic.

Unfortunately, there are not that many good online versions of the Cloud. I do think Ira Progoff’s version is a good one, and it happens to be available here (note: the actual text starts on page 53, the first part is a solid introduction to the work): http://www.archive.org/stream/cloudofunknowing010851mbp/cloudofunknowing010851mbp_djvu.txt  You can also can also view or download this version as a PDF file by looking at the upper left hand corner page at the link above.
