(Trotz seines gewaltigen Umfanges kann die "Christliche My...)
Trotz seines gewaltigen Umfanges kann die "Christliche Mystik" eine imposante und eindrucksvolle Architektonik nicht verleugnen. Das erste Buch, das neutral gehalten ist, bildet gleichsam eine Art Vorstufe und ist auf die christliche Mystik hingeordnet. Dieselbe Funktion bezüglich der dämonischen Mystik hat das sechste Buch, in welchem die natürliche Mystik begründet wird. Die christliche Mystik ist ansteigende, die dämonische Mystik ist absteigende Mystik. Görres entfaltet seine Gedanken in beiden Fällen von der mittleren Natur, die er im ersten Buch christlich und im sechsten dämonisch deutet. Von da wird der Leser stufenweise zum Geist, zum Geist Gottes in der christlichen und zum Geist des Bösen in der dämonischen Mystik hingeführt. Von Görres wird die Mystik folgendermaßen definiert: "Die Mystik ist ein Schauen und Erkennen unter Vermittlung eines höheren Lichtes, und ein Wirken und Tun unter Vermittlung einer höheren Freiheit; wie das gewöhnliche Wissen und Tun durch das dem Geist eingegebene geistige Licht, und die ihm eingepflanzte persönliche Freiheit sich vermittelt findet."

Johann Joseph von Gorres was born on the 25th of January 1776, at Coblenz. His father was a man of moderate means, who sent his son to a Latin college under the direction of the Roman Catholic clergy.
The sympathies of the young Gorres were from the first strongly with the French Revolution, and the dissoluteness and irreligion of the French exiles in the Rhineland confirmed him in his hatred of princes. He harangued the revolutionary clubs, and insisted on the unity of interests which should ally all civilized states to one another. He then commenced a republican journal called Das rote Blatt, and afterwards Rubezahl, in which he strongly condemned the administration of the Rhenish provinces by France. After the peace of Campo Formio (1797) there was some hope that the Rhenish provinces would be constituted into an independent republic. In 1799 the provinces sent an embassy, of which Gorres was a member, to Paris to put their case before the directory. The embassy reached Paris on the 20th of November 1799; two days before this Napoleon had assumed the supreme direction of affairs. After much delay the embassy was received by him; but the only answer they obtained was "that they might rely on perfect justice, and that the French government would never lose sight of their wants. " Gorres on his return published a tract called Resultate meiner Sendung nach Paris, in which he reviewed the history of the French Revolution. During the thirteen years of Napoleon's dominion Gorres lived a retired life, devoting himself chiefly to art or science. In 1801 he was for some years teacher at a secondary school in Coblenz; in 1806 he moved to Heidelberg, where he lectured at the university. As a leading member of the Heidelberg Romantic group, he edited together with K. Brentano and L. von Arnim the famous Zeitungfiir Einsiedler (subsequently re-named Trost-Einsamkeit), and in 1807 he published Die teutschen Volksbucher. He returned to Coblenz in 1808, and again found occupation as a teacher in a secondary school, supported by civic funds. He now studied Persian, and in two years published a Mythengeschichte der asiatischen Welt, which was followed ten years later by Das Heldenbuch von Iran, a translation of part of the Shahnama, the epic of Firdousi. In 1813 he actively took up the cause of national independence, and in the following year founded Der rheinische Merkur. Considered to be the most influential journal of the time, it turned first against Napoleon and, after his fall, against the reactionary politics of the German states, which led to its suppression in 1816. With the publication of his pamphlet “Teutschland und die Revolution” (1819; “Germany and the Revolution”), he was forced to flee to Strasbourg and to Switzerland, where he lived in poverty for several years.

In 1824 he formally returned to the Roman Catholic Church and in 1827 became professor of history at the University of Munich, where he formed a circle of liberal Roman Catholic scholars. A vigorous Catholic spokesman in several controversies, he wrote the monumental Christliche Mystik, 4 vol.
In 1801 he married Catherine de Lasaulx.
