Now the power of that vision is tested by the practical demands of a Ufe lived in the strenuous activities of a world not yet won to holiness nor swayed by ideals of goodness and of truth. New careers have opened for the educated classes besides those of the knight and the monk, which were all that the F 82 LORENZO SCUPOLI Middle Ages offered. This active and busy life in the world needed guidance and direction in the ways of spiritual growth. Deliberate and definite in- struction in the detail...s of a disciplined and ordered life of the spirit takes the place of the old scholastic epitome of doctrine and the ecstatic outpourings of the mystic and the seer, Julian and Thomas a Kempis reveal the great principles of faith and vision which guide the soul upon the upward path of union with God. Scupoli deals with the actual difficulties of a soul beset with temptations and struggling with the deceitfulness of sin. Not only has the demand for holiness of life among Christians become more general and more insistent, but the individual conscience, which the spirit of the age has freed from many of its accustomed obediences and sanctions, needs special guidance.
