Seeing Marguerite in the Mirror: A Linguistic Analysis of Porete's "Mirror of Si

Description: Seeing Marguerite in the Mirror by W.R. Terry Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Using Marguerite Poretes (d.1310) Mirror of Simple Souls as the case study, Terry outlines a new application of linguistic tools to the analysis of spiritual texts, showing how the tools can elucidate discourse aim, self-presentation, and concepts of God. Terrys book explains the tools, outlines a four-step process for applying them, contextualizes Marguerites Mirror in light of potential sources, medieval images of women and documentation concerning her trial, and then applies the tools to Marguerites Mirror. The image of Marguerite that emerges is in sharp contrast to that preserved by her contemporaries who used highly gendered labels: Marguerites self-presentation is not highly gendered. Gendered elements in Mirror are explainable in light of Marguerites potential theological and literary sources. Consequently, Terry determines that modern focus on gender images for Marguerite relies less on her own voice and more on historical labels given to her, missing the core of her self-understanding.
