Description

Hadewijch of Antwerp was a Christian mystic, a Beguine who lived in the 13th century.

This compilation of her mystical writings is best described, in translator Andrew Harvey’s words, as a “heroic song” of love. The book presents an honest picture of love from every angle, stripped of sentimentality, not disguising the high price love demands if it is to be taken or given seriously.
