Title: In Their Own Words
Review: Gendered Voices is a book that will change your whole outlook. It is investigative journalism and medieval history tied up in a very informative package. Revealing the deliberate biographical twisting of women's lives by men so that one size fits all and that size is exactly what is culturally expected is the topic of this beautifully written book. For anyone seriously interested in the lives of women medieval mystics and medieval religious movements in general, this book is an absolute necessity. The twisting and fabrication of hagiographies into a male acceptable gruel without texture or flavor has misrepresented and belittled the lives of these fascinating women. This book helps set the record straight.
