Known for his negative theology, particularly as displayed in the seminal work \u003cem\u003eDe Docta Ignorantia\u003c\/em\u003e (\u003cem\u003eOf Learned Ignorance\u003c\/em\u003e), Nicholas shows how accepting the limits of man's rational understanding leads to a fuller experience of the divine. Man, he believed, is capable of comprehending God's inner being, an experience he characterized as a \"coincidence of opposites.\" Unlike his previous works, though, in \u003cem\u003eThe Vision of God \u003c\/em\u003eNicholas spends little time on a direct discussion of theology or philosophy and instead focuses directly on experience of the divine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDespite growing interest in his life and works, Nicholas of Cusa is often overlooked in discussions of Christian mysticism, yet \u003cem\u003eThe Vision of God\u003c\/em\u003e shows him as a true mystic, theologian, and teacher. It is nearly impossible to read any portion of this book and not yearn for a glimpse of Cusa's vision.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-14695012\"\u003eNicolas Cusanus\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-4032028\"\u003eNicholas of Cusa\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Angelico Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/02\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 164\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.38d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798886770841\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-REL\"\u003eReligion\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-REL047000\"\u003eMysticism\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-REL\"\u003eReligion\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-REL067000\"\u003eChristian Theology | General\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Angelico Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48459010408685,"sku":"9798886770841","price":22.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/files\/img_559842fe-85a4-4b5c-bc87-5a7052d6a0af.jpg?v=1753624974","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/the-vision-of-god-9798886770841","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
