No study of English medieval spirituality would be complete without a treatise on Walter Hilton. That is patently true. It is also clear that he should come at the conclusion of such a study for he is at once the most learned and the most analytical of all these writers. He is a man of wide experience both in his life of prayer and in his direction of contemplative, religious, and he is a man who has studied in the Schools with greater patience than Eolle and with a tidier mind than the author of the Cloud of Unknowing.
