Women of God and Arms: Female Spirituality and Political Conflict, 1380-1600
Renaissance Quarterly, Winter, 2006 by Jane Tylus
All in all, Warren offers much food for thought and debate as she identifies a diverse array of spiritual images and practices that were ripe for appropriation in early modern Europe. Intelligently written, Women of God and Arms is a welcome contribution to ongoing conversations about the many ways in which gender, politics, and religion converge, a topic more than a little relevant to our own times.
