editorialreviews

The Humiliati were a lay group who, in response to the pressures between the growth of commercial society and distinctly anticommercial religious dogma, chose to disown all worldly goods, but continue to live within their community. Women of the Humiliatin makes clear that women played a far more significant role in the group than has previously been ascribed to them. Indeed, archival evidence suggests that they dominated the group's membership. Beyond illuminating an important but understudied topic, this work reveals the inventive ways in which women in medieval Italy were able to satisfy their spiritual and economic needs within the confines of a male dominated church and society.
