Elisabeth of Schonau: The Complete Works (Classics of Western Spirituality)
This entry in the triumphant and long-running "Classics of Western Spirituality" series features the writings of and about 12th-century German nun Elisabeth of Schoenau, whose gentle visions began to circulate in her own lifetime and won her a lasting fame. University of Vermont professor Clark's careful work features a graceful translation; her introduction shows how Elisabeth's spirituality was shaped by her monastic experience and the rhythms of the liturgical calendar.
