Abstract: 'Cheetham...explores the creative role of the imagination in the formative ground of Western religious traditions. According to Corbin, engaging the soul of the world through the mediating power of the Imaginal is an act of love. Cheetham explores this theme fully through his analysis of mystical poverty, contemplative knowledge, the luminosity of the earth, the theophanic vision, the Christ Angel, the divine sensorium, alchemical transformation, the spiritual humanism of Ivan Illich, Western iconoclasm, and the centrality of gnosis, all in the service of individual awakening to spiritual responsibility.'
