Synopsis

This book reveals Therese's visions and stigmata along with some biographical data and explanations. This work is a studied apology for the mystical phenomena which occurred in the life of Therese. The author shows that mystical experiences, while outside the realm of usual rational expectations, are well within the realm of God's way. He views Therese's experience as a divine mission, given to her by God as a first line of defense against modern, exaggerated rationalism, which does away with religion and forces us to sheer materialism. The author, Johannes Steiner, was introduced to Therese Neumann in 1929 and has maintained unbroken and close contact with Konnersreuth ever since. After the war it was possible for him to even intensify his connections since his professional needs, as one of Europe's foremost publishers, brought him into the neighborhood of Konnersreuth several times a year and frequently for rather extensive visits. Thus he had an opportunity to speak with Therese Neumann herself and to acquire first-hand information to correct or round out the work of her first biographer, Dr. Fritz Gerlich. He is probably the best living expert on the subject of Therese Neumann.
