The Bride of Christ Goes to Hell
Metaphor and Embodiment in the Lives of Pious Women, 200-1500
Following a long trajectory from late antiquity to the high Middle Ages, Dyan Elliott offers a provocative analysis of the changing religious, emotional, and sexual meanings of the metaphor of the sponsa Christi and of the increasing anxiety surrounding the somatization of female spirituality.
