One of the most enigmatic metaphors within the work of the Rhine
mystic Meister Eckhart (1260-1328) is that of the “divine spark” or “spark of the
soul” which appears recurrently and under different meanings in the German
texts written by the prior of Erfurt. Our main focus in this research is the
analysis of this igneous symbol that the Dominican priest identifies with “the
highest reason”, “an enlightened understanding” which he describes as free
of all names and bare of all forms. We begin our journey with the study of
the symbolic value of the fire metaphor in some chapters of the Bible, and then
move on to the interpretation of this image by authors such as St. Jerome in his
commentary on the biblical passage of Ezekiel, or St. Thomas Aquinas in his
Quaestiones disputatae de veritate, finally proceeding to unravel the multiple
allusions to the term in Eckhart’s theological corpus. |
