Underhill, Evelyn

    0.01 sec.

Underhill, Evelyn (1875–1941)

English poet and mystic. A friend and disciple of the Austrian-born British Catholic philosopher Baron Friedrich von Hügel, she found her way intellectually from agnosticism to Christianity. She wrote numerous books on mysticism, including The Life of the Spirit (1922), volumes of verse, and four novels. Her Mysticism (1911) became a standard work.

Born in Wolverhampton, she was educated at King's College, London, and in 1921 became lecturer on the philosophy of religion at Manchester College, Oxford.
