Geistliche Frauen und städtische Gesellschaft in Straßburg

Geistliche Frauen und städtische Gesellschaft in Straßburg

Stiftsdamen, Klosterfrauen und Beginen im Spätmittelalter

von Sigrid Hirbodian

After Cologne, Strasbourg was the city with the most religious women’s communities in the late medieval empire. The study sheds light on the broad spectrum of religious lifestyles for women in a late medieval city, their close integration into the urban environment and the sometimes considerable power of clerical women in political, economic and religious matters.
