Hilton, Walter (c. 1340–1396)

English mystic. He wrote The Ladder of Perfection, a treatise on asceticism and contemplation. It was widely circulated in manuscript and was one of the first books printed 1494 by Wynkyn de Worde (died c. 1534). It prescribes for the restoration of God's image in the soul by enduring the ‘dark night’ of detachment from worldly things. Hilton spent most of his life as an Augustinian canon.
