REYES-GACITUA, Eva. William of Saint-Thierry: The mystic of God’s nostalgy. Franciscanum [online]. 2019, vol.61, n.172, pp.13-13.  Epub 24-Ene-2021. ISSN 0120-1468.  https://doi.org/10.21500/01201468.4467.

William of Saint-Thierry, a 20th century theologian and mystic, displays man’s nostalgy and desire to know and love God in a language of authentic beauty. This path of ascensional movement -present in all his writings- enables him to develop a sound theology, as man can understand that by loving God, he may enter the same Trinity.

For this reason, for Saint-Thierry abate, nostalgy is a form of love that makes its own path and aspires to arrive at the end of the final day which corresponds to salutare Dei in Comcant. From this movement, the desire does not only confine itself to a psychological phenomenon, but turns into the destiny of fruitio Dei man. Hence, this line of thought must be verified from the author’s theological method, the biblical foundation and richness of spiritual interpretation present in the fabric of this study.

Palabras clave : Trinity; Holy Spirit; fruition Dei; desiderium; salutare Dei.
