The Science of the Cross

by Edith Stein · Hilda Graef (trans.)

Edith Stein's last and unfinished work, a phenomenological study of John of the Cross written in the Carmelite convent of Echt shortly before her deportation in 1942. It interprets the cross as the key to John's teaching on the dark night and union with God.
