This book about Mendicant women outside the cloister is unique in its content. Rose of Viterbo, Angela of Foligno, Margaret of Cortona, and Sancia, Queen of Naples, were all born within the first century of the Franciscan Order. As women who pursued their religious vocation of voluntary poverty, itinerancy, and preaching outside of monastic walls-in the streets and in their homes-they could very well be called the first generation of mendicant women.

From Introduction
Dr. Pryds argues for the tradition of “lived theology,” what she calls “performative piety” or “somatic theology,” through the examination of the lives and teachings of Rose of Viterbo, Angelo of Foligno, Margaret of Cortona, and Sancia, Queen of Naples. She correctly notes that these four women may serve as models for those who engage the intellectual tradition by living its central
themes in the market-place of life: an embrace of voluntary poverty, humility, compassionate outreach to others, public preaching, a personal embodiment of the love of the crucified Christ.
