Love's Mind: An Essay on Contemplative Life

by John S. Dunne

Do we love with a love we know, or with a love we do not know? This question, posed to Dunne in a dream, prompts him to describe the journey one takes in contemplating and coming to know love. His insights lead him to a vision of the city of God, in which contemplation replaces violence.
