The women whose writings are included in this anthology are all different colors in a kaleidoscope of history. Spanning nearly one thousand years in the history of spirituality, these works, arranged chronologically, begin with Hildegard of Bingen in the eleventh century and move to Ita Ford in our own. Their authors are mystics, contemplatives, actives, intellectuals, poets, and dreamers. They are portraits of women through the centuries who loved deeply their families, their communities, their careers, or their causes, but who, most of al, loved God.
Some women whose writings are included: Beatrice of Nazareth, Dorothy Day, Edith Stein, Mary Ward, Jessica Powers, Ita Ford, Hildegard of Bingen, Julian of Norwich, Catherine of Siena, Teresa of Avila, Simone Weil, and Elizabeth Anne Seton. The editor introduces each selection.
Back Jacket
This is a thoughtfully selected collection of women's spiritual writings from the twelfth century to the present. Love of God and service to humankind provide a thematic unity that ties together such disparate styles of religious life as those of Hildegard of Bingen, Teresa of Avila and Simone Weil. Should a reader be searching for a deeper understanding of the life of contemplation in its relation to the life of action, this brief compendium could well become a constant companion.
