The Dark Knowledge of God Peguy and Where the Soil WasBy Charles Journet From Sacred Scripture to the Summa Theologiae, the silent wisdom of the via negativa has inspired what Charles Journet calls the unknowing of love and the ignorance that is truly learned. The Dark Knowledge of God conducts a concise overview of the apophatic tradition with a series of intriguing meditations on the divine nature. The primary benefit of the via negativa, per Journet, is its power to simplify our apprehension of God.
