N2  - In honor of the well-known scholar on medieval mysticism and women, Elizabeth Avilda Petroff, who retired in 2014, her former students have put together a most intriguing volume of critical studies dealing with significant cases of medieval women’s self-empowerment and self-expression. These articles cover both mystical literature and religious text of different kinds, and they include also examples from medieval Arabic and Chinese literature, highlighting relevant cases of major female figures who knew how to establish themselves as authorities in their own ways.
