Description

"This wide-ranging collection of writings by and about religious women presents some of the most original and compelling literature of the Middle Ages: biographies, poetic compositions, works that are mystical, prophetic, visionary, or meditative. All of the writings here reflect the developments in medieval piety, particularly in the link between female spirituality and the body."--BOOK JACKET.
