Product Description

The Autobiography of Madame Guyon is a spiritual memoir written by Jeanne-Marie Bouvier de la Motte-Guyon, also known as Madame Guyon. The book chronicles her life from childhood to adulthood, including her spiritual journey and experiences with God. Madame Guyon was a French mystic and writer who lived in the 17th and 18th centuries, and her autobiography provides insight into her beliefs and practices as a Christian. She was known for her controversial ideas and was imprisoned for her beliefs. The book also includes letters and poems written by Madame Guyon, as well as commentary from others about her life and teachings. Overall, The Autobiography of Madame Guyon is a valuable resource for those interested in Christian mysticism and the history of religious thought.No mortal could die in a more Christian disposition, or with more courage than he did, after having received the sacrament in a manner truly edifying. I was not present when he expired, for out of tenderness he made me retire. He was above twenty hours unconscious and in the agonies of his death. It was in the morning of July 21, 1676, that he died. Next day I entered into my closet, in which was the image of my divine spouse, the Lord Jesus Christ. I renewed my marriage-contract, and added thereto a vow of chastity, with a promise to make it perpetual, if M. Bertot my director, would permit me. After that I was filled with great joy, which was new to me, as for a long time past I had been plunged in the deepest bitterness.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
