Download or read book The Soul as Virgin Wife written by Amy Hollywood and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2000-12-05 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Soul as Virgin Wife presents the first book-length study to give a detailed account of the theological and mystical teachings written by women themselves, especially by those known as beguines, which have been especially neglected. Hollywood explicates the difference between the erotic and imagistic mysticism, arguing that Mechthild, Porete, and Eckhart challenge the sexual ideologies prevalent in their culture and claim a union without distinction between the soul and the divine. The beguines' emphasis in the later Middle Ages on spiritual poverty has long been recognized as an important influence on subsequent German and Flemish mystical writers, in particular the great German Dominican preacher and apophatic theologian Meister Eckhart. In The Soul as Virgin Wife, Amy Hollywood presents the first book-length study to give a detailed textual account of these debts. Through an analysis of Magdeburg's The Flowing Light of the Godhead, Marguerite Porete's Mirror of Simple Souls, and the Latin commentaries and vernacular sermons of Eckhart, Hollywood uncovers the intricate web of influence and divergence between the beguinal spiritualities and Eckhart.

Book excerpt: This is a message from the Virgin Girl: From here, I will start my life. From here, I will build a bridge, walk on it, go up to the top of the ranks that many people dream of, break all the barriers that stand in my way, and walk on it and then rise to the top and raise my head. I dream of a prosperous future a lot—one that can fill my life with joy and happiness and raise the reputation of my family. Yes, I was born to a low-income but respectable family, and I was subjected to the worst methods of persecution. I have received tempting offers from senior people in businesses about selling my beautiful body to them so they could relish it on quiet music strings and piano tones. I didn’t care about the palaces filled with bliss I couldn’t get, and I turned down all these offers and walked with a clean, pure, and flawless face to confront a bitter and difficult life. But I promised myself to strike hard at the one who hurt my family and me, who distorted my good reputation. I have a hellish internal power. I’m not going to show it right now, but I will unleash it in front of the one who thinks he can buy me with money. I lost my family, and I stayed alone and had no one in my life, but I will take revenge on the one who destroyed my life. I will raise the flag of triumph in the end.

The captivating robber baron sets her heart aflame once more, leading to a champagne-fueled night together.
