Composed during a critical time in the evolution of European intellectual life, the works of Meister Eckhart (c. 1260-1327)are some of the most powerful medieval attempts to achieve a synthesis between ancient Greek thought and the Christian faith. Fusing philosophy and religion with vivid originality and metaphysical passion, these works have intrigued and inspired philosophers and theologians from Hegel to Heidegger and beyond.
