The Temple of Our Soul : Bilingual Edition with Introduction and Translation Hardback

Hardback

Pre-Order

Description

The Temple of our Soul is one of the most attractive spiritual texts of the late Middle Ages and early modern period.

Written by an anonymous woman, who was also the author of influential The Evangelical Pearl, this masterpiece offers insights into the mystical aspects of Christianity that were widespread in Rhineland and the Low Countries.

For political, socio-economic, and geographical reasons, spiritual writings from the Low Countries were highly influential in France, England, and Spain.

Language barriers, however, have made the original texts inaccessible to many scholars and students.

This bilingual edition offers the first English translation The Temple of our Soul together with the original Dutch text.

This edition includes an introduction that provides insights into the text's key themes and the social context in which it was written.

In addition to students of medieval mysticism, it will also be of interest to scholars of late medieval and early modern vernacular literature and feminist theology.
