| Department: | Religion |
| Description: | FACE TO FACE COURSE. NOT AVAILABLE TO VIRTUAL LEARNERS. 2nd HALF SEMESTER. Women were excluded from positions of formal leadership within the medieval church, but many sought alternative ways of articulating a theological commitment and teaching others what they knew. This course looks at key figures in one such "alternative" Christianity, the mystics of the Middle Ages. Authors include Julian of Norwich, Mechthild of Magdeburg, Brigit of Sweden, Hildegard of Bingen, Hadewijch of Antwerp and Catherine of Siena. These remarkable women wrote about God, medicine, war, love and lust, the lurking evils of ordinary life, and much more. |
