Keywords: Benedict of Canfield, Regula perfectionis; mysticism; image; imagination; annihilation
Summary/Abstract: The study deals with imagination, images and their significance in the mystical doctrine of Capuchin Benedict of Canfield (1562–1611), which he discusses mainly in the third part of his work Regula perfectionis. In this context, he is particularly concerned with the analysis of apophatic moments and the abandonment of the imaginable, the figurative, which accompanies the spiritual or mystical journey and which is the subject of many texts of Western culture.
