Agnes Blannbekin, Viennese Beguine: Life and Revelations

Viac o knihe

The book explores the unique phenomenon of female mysticism through the lens of Blannbekin, who found inspiration in the urban environment rather than traditional contemplative settings. Weithaus characterizes her experiences as "street mysticism," highlighting the interplay between the mystical and the everyday life of the city. This perspective offers a fresh understanding of how urban landscapes can shape spiritual experiences and visions.
