By Walter Simons

Rezensionen

"Destined to become the standard work in beguine history."-Renaissance Quarterly "A tour de force."-David Nicholas, Clemson University "A vivid, valuable portrait."-History "Comprehensive and authoritative."-Medium Aevum "Walter Simons has written a thorough, scholarly study, long on careful research, to the point on analysis, and without theoretical trappings. Cities of Ladies is a most welcome contribution to the study of medieval religious life and women's place in the life of the Low Countries."-Speculum "Indispensable for students of medieval religion and women's history."-Journal of Religion "The definitive study... A learned, lively, and highly readable book, now the essential introduction to the subject."-Choice "This fine work reveals medieval religion as a web of overlapping interests... Simons has thus both provided a detailed study of the movement in the Low Countries and place it in its wider religious, social, and economic context."-Ecclesiastical History
