Following Augustine’s lead, medieval commentators tended to interpret the story in terms of marriage of Christ and Ecclesia, and so the bride figured allegorically as a representation of the Church. New ideas about the bride emerged in the twelfth century, particularly in materials associated with women. In the Gospel explications of Hildegard of Bingen, and in texts and pictures created to support women’s devotional practices, the bride of Cana takes center stage as the vehicle for articulating new models of women’s religious identity and aspiration. |
