"As a former professor of education, I tend to critique instructors rather severely. However, Carl McColman, in my opinion, ranks as one of the all-time great instructors. He has an unbelievable mastery of his subject matter & an uncanny ability to translate esoteric matter into understandable form. On top of that, he's very personable. This is my second Evening at Emory Class with Carl and I will sign up for any class that he teaches!"

I have just learned of the blog that belongs to John Skinner, an English spiritual author whose translation of Julian of Norwich is by far the best available. He has also done translations of The Book of Margery Kempe and The Confessions of Saint Patrick. His own book, Hear Our Silence, about a two-week period spent with the Carthusians, looks quite tasty but is, alas, out of print and used copies are rather expensive.
