Abstract
In her spiritual treatise, Heaven in Faith, Elisabeth of the Trinity, while providing us with a spiritual doctrine relative to Praise of glory, also offers us an original approach to pneumatology. Her treatise, constructed like a musical score in synchrony with the cyclical form, places the characteristics of this pneumatology between a meditation on Baptism and a meditation on the Eucharist. It is a pneumatology which is related to a theology of the sacraments and to a euchology of Confirmation. It is indirectly grounded in the notions of epectase and the experience of the cloud in saint Gregory of Nyssa, leading to a renewed perception of the internal dynamics of the sacraments of initiation and to a rediscovery of the gift of self as a place of trinitarian experience.
