Okay, so I may just have chosen the worst possible essay question out of all the options...
"Was there a distinctive style of women’s mysticism, as opposed to men’s, in Europe in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries? Discuss with reference to any two of the following: St. Catherine of Siena; Margery Kempe; Richard Rolle; Henry Suso."
We haven't covered it in class and I dont' know where to begin, but I've already got all the books and want to get it done by tonight. I know what I'll do once I have an arguament - focus on St Catherine of Siena and Richard Rolle, since I have oh-so-many primary sources from them, but I don't know how to argue. For or against?
If anyone knows/has some kind of insight, please comment. Pleease. Thankyou.
And from this I have learned never to choose the essay question that looks the most interesting
