From the Back Cover:
'In this book the topics of 'the everyday, ' 'belief, ' what might be called 'the counter-historical, ' and 'the politics of language' are coordinated and brought to bear upon a fascinating historical phenomenon, early modern mysticism, to yield profound insights into the 'mystical' underside of our own post-religious experience of the world, nature, and history.' - Hayden White, University of California, Santa Cruz

Michael B. Smith is emeritus professor of French and philosophy at Berry College. Among other works, he has translated books by Michel de Certeau, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, and Emmanuel Levinas. In addition, he is the author of Toward the Outside: Themes and Concepts in Emmanuel Levinas.
