Overview: The late medieval theologian Thomas à Kempis is the probable author of ‘The Imitation of Christ’, a handbook for spiritual life arising from the ‘Devotio Moderna’ movement. Composed in Latin, it is divided into four books of detailed spiritual instructions, emphasising the importance of the interior life and withdrawal from the mundanities of the world, as opposed to the active imitation of Christ practised by other friars. This landmark text is perhaps the most widely read Christian devotional work after the Bible, being regarded by many as a masterpiece of late medieval Europe. Delphi’s Medieval Library provides eReaders with rare and precious works of the Middle Ages, with noted English translations and the original texts. This eBook presents Thomas à Kempis’ complete works, with illustrations, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1)
