| Summary: | The company of medieval women theologians is much larger than anyone (including Christine de Pizan) ever thought before the current surge of editing and translating began to bring these neglected women to light. These theologians, furthermore, were not concerned with personal spirituality in the modern sense of individual introspection. They were reformers and activists who worked to improve conditions around them in church and society. Unifying the traditions of Mary and Martha of Bethany, these medieval women were contemplatives who went into action. |
