This volume brings together contributions by colleagues, friends, and (former) students of Rob Faesen SJ on the occasion of his 65th birthday. Rob Faesen was the founder and director for more than twenty years of the Institute for the Study of Spirituality at the Faculty of Theology and Religious Studies, KU Leuven, as well as lecturer at the Ruusbroec Institute, Faculty of Arts, University of Antwerp, and holder of the Francis Xavier Chair at the Tilburg School of Catholic Theology, Tilburg University. In view of the dedicatee’s research interests, this volume of essays focuses on the history of Christian mysticism with three central foci. The first part of the volume is devoted to the medieval mystical tradition, which lies at the heart of Rob Faesen’s research. The second part focuses on the development of mysticism and spirituality in the Franciscan Order, the Devotio Moderna, and the Society of Jesus. The final section of the volume turns to the relations between mystical theology and the liturgy, art, and contemporary thought. The volume thus addresses themes and questions that have been of great interest to Rob Faesen both professionally and personally.
