Title :
Imitatio Mariae: Motherhood Motifs in Devotional Memoirs [The author discusses what she calls “spiritual motherhood” or “mother mysticism” (visionary appearances of Jesus as an infant, used to express the same desire for mystical union with God as is often expressed by the imagery of spiritual marriage) in South German fourteenth-century Dominican devotional writing. She discusses in particular the mystics Christine Ebner, Adelheide Langmann and Margarete Ebner. Title note supplied by Feminae.].
