The result is this sprawling, eclectic, yet curiously intimate account of the men -- but mostly of the women -- who devoted their lives to revitalizing the Dominican order in southern Germany. With his reliance on their accounts and archives and respect for their intellectual abilities and spiritual resolve, Meyer's treatment of medieval Dominican women provides a model from which today's historians stand to learn. The introduction contextualizes Meyer's celebratory work within a more objective historical background; it is followed by a full translation, making this remarkable history available to English-speaking readers for the first time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Claire Taylor Jones\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0888443080\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780888443083\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e PIMS\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/15\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 316\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.90d","brand":"Claire Taylor Jones","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43926771433727,"sku":"9780888443083","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_cffdb6f1-c6f9-4f50-9156-77d83bab85a7.jpg?v=1681084921","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/womens-history-in-the-age-claire-taylor-jones-9780888443083","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
