	Underhill: Evelyn Underhill and Vatican II
		Evelyn Underhill, born in 1875 during the reign of Pius IX, is a fascinating bridge between the Protestant and Catholic approaches to worship and theology in that she was essentially a Vatican II person, a breath of fresh air, in her own time.
		Evelyn Underhill had come to the Catholic Church through its art and its "mysteries": its sacraments (particularly the eucharist) and its sacramental view of life, its awareness of the eternal touching time and of the transcendent and extraordinary found in the "homely" and ordinary.
		When Pius X condemned the dangers he perceived in individual religious experience and the liberal, critical approach in current biblical scholarship, Evelyn Underhill was cut adrift from what was to be the home of her soul: the Catholic Church to which she had given her heart as a result of her first retreat.

	Dana Greene: Adhering to God: The Message of Evelyn Underhill for Our Times
		The life of Evelyn Underhill (1) the twentieth century British religious writer, offers us not only inspiration, but an example of a modern woman, who was not broken by confrontation with complexity and the disintegration of meaning, but in fact worked to heal that confusion and brokenness.
		Although Evelyn Underhill is remembered as an elegant and sensitive religious writer on topics of mysticism and the devotional life, her early life gives few indications of her later religious intensity nor does the certitude of her writing hint at her own spiritual anguish.
		Underhill had come to the conclusion that participation in the institutional church was necessary; it created a group consciousness, connected with one's past, helped in the continuance of spiritual culture, and assisted in disciplining the individual.
