"She was the last person anyone would have expected to become a nun, yet she became one of the most celebrated nuns of all time. She was a brilliant administrator in a world where such vocations were all but closed to women. And above all, she combined an astonishing proclivity for ecstatic union with God with down-to-earth practicality and good humor. Teresa of Avila (1515-1582) is one of the most beloved of the Catholic saints. Her texts of spiritual instruction, such as The Interior Castle and The Way of Perfection, speak so plainly and eloquently about the interior life that they have become undisputed classics, studied by people of many faiths. In 1562, during the era of the Spanish Inquisition, Teresa sat down to write an account of the mystical experiences for which she had become famous. The result was this book, one of the great classics of spiritual autobiography." "With this translation of The Book of My Life, Mirabai Starr brings the Spanish mystic to life for a new generation, with contemporary English that mirrors Teresa's own earthy, vernacular Spanish, and that presents us with - four centuries after Teresa's death - someone we feel we know: a woman intoxicated with love for God yet filled with an overflowing love for the world."--BOOK JACKET.… (mehr)

Reading simultaneously with Interior Castle and Way of Perfection (yes – nuts – I’ll have to read them all again a couple times). Teresa was amazing – one in several billion. Humble but never falsely, down to earth but the greatest of mystics, lively, brilliant, warm, wise .... Amazing woman ....

I won't rate this because it feels a bit wrong to review someone's life and a piece of religious literature out of 5 stars. overall very interesting for anyone interested in mysticism in the church and some historical details. read after it being referred to a lot in Meditations on the Tarot

“O leitor tem em mãos, diante dos olhos e do coração, uma obra-prima que retrata o itinerário espiritual de uma mulher de 47 anos.” - Frei Betto Até a chegada dos manuscritos de Santa Teresa, a igreja católica vivia sob os preceitos do teocentrismo. O que fez esta mulher letrada (uma raríssima exceção para a época), autodidata e visionária foi tirar Deus do centro do universo para colocá-lo no cerne da alma; em outras palavras, trouxe à tona a figura do homem moderno, que vive em busca de si mesmo e está pronto para experiências místicas. Livro da vida é o clássico mais lido pelos espanhóis depois de Dom Quixote, de Cervantes. Em notável prefácio, escrito especialmente para esta edição, Frei Betto descreve Teresa da seguinte maneira: “Feminista avant la lettre, esta monja carmelita do século XVI, ao revolucionar a espiritualidade cristã, incomodou as autoridades eclesiásticas de seu tempo, a ponto de o núncio papal na Espanha, Dom Felipe Sega, denunciá-la, em 1578, como ‘mulher inquieta, errante, desobediente e contumaz’”. Esta edição traz também uma esclarecedora introdução de J. M. Cohen, especialista em literatura de língua espanhola e um dos mais notáveis homens de letras da Inglaterra no séc. XX. Completam o volume as notas e as indicações de leitura feitas pelo tradutor brasileiro Marcelo Musa Cavallari. ( )

Vorrei che, come mi hanno ordinato e concesso ampia facoltà di descrivere il mio modo di orazione e le grazie che il Signore mi ha fatto, mi avessero dato anche la libertà di parlare molto minutamente e con chiarezza dei miei grandi peccati e della mia spregevole vita: mi sarebbe stato do grande conforto: ma non l'hanno voluto, anzi mi hanno imposto molte restrizioni a questo riguardo.
