Women Writers of the Middle Ages : A Critical Study of Texts from Perpetua to Marguerite Porete

Rating:
Summary: A Wonderful Resource
Review: I checked this book out to use as a resource for a paper I was doing on St. Perpetua. I ended up reading more from the other chapters than the one I was supposed to be studying. This book has a wealth of information about many notable Medieval women. The chapter on Hildegard von Bingen and Marguerite Porete are of especial interest. There are also original Latin and French texts included for those who enjoy using primary sources.
