"This publication continues the line, previously opened in the series with volumes of outstanding German mystics Mayster Eckhart and his student and associate Henry Suzo.
The book is based on the composition of the spiritual daughter and the co-author of the latter-the Dominican nun Elizabeth Stagel (c. 1300-1360) "" The lives of the sisters of the monastery of the Tersoss "" (G. Winterur, c. 1340), according to the genre, are a monastery chronicle compiled on the basis of the memoirs of the elderly nuns and the handwritten records of the late sisters of the Dominican Order, as well as personal observations of E. Stagel itself. In fact, this is a kind of unprecedented chronicle of mass psychoses, which struck a number of monasteries of Eastern Switzerland and Southern Germany in the 1st half of the XIV, an essay on deviant forms of religiously motivated behavior: ascetic exercises, ecstasy and miracles.
At the same time, the "" lives "" are one of the great works of German -speaking literature of the late Middle Ages. "" "Lives"" E. Stagel is accompanied by other representative texts of paramount importance, grouped in the add -ons section. Part I of section was compiled by essays representing the female mystical tradition of Germany at the turn of the XIII-XIV centuries in all the diversity of its geographical (western, eastern) and genre variations: “The book about the unbearable burden of Kristina Ebner (G. Nuremberg),“ Revelations ”of Adeelhaide Langmann (Nuremberg) and “Revelations” by Margaret Ebner (Medingen, Upper Danube) If the works of Dominicans are collected in Part I, then in Part II published Opas of Beginovs: the message of Christina Shtelnskaya to Peter Dachi VII (the surroundings of G. Kölna) and the elected chapters from the Life and Revelations by Agnes Blannbekin (Vienna) Acquaintance with these texts will allow the reader to fully feel the abyss that shared the spiritual and poetic world of the Dominicans, brought up by the grades of medieval scholasticism and mysticism during the many years of spiritual forage from them, and the world of runners, mainly spontaneous, filled with inconsistent fantasy and images of chthonic antiquity ( Devillery and so on).
All works presented in this volume are published in Russian for the first time and, with the exception of "" life and revelations "", Agnes Blannbekin, translated in full, without any seizures. In the accompanying article placed in the section "" Appendix "", an attempt was made to explain the phenomena described in translated texts. The mystical tradition is taken as a whole, as a combination of different, although interconnected layers: literary, behavioral, psychological and theological and theoretical. In this case, the original developments of domestic folklorism are used. The behavior of the charismatics of both sexes is interpreted as a spontaneous drama in the household, everyday space, as a “performive practice” of itself, which meets the search for a modern avant -garde theater and capable of enriching its stage experience. Theater calculations are closed with the general theory of culture.
The unique autograph (RH 159) of the city of Zurich Elsbet von Oye, who avoided any editing editing and has never previously published, was considered in detail as a useful additive to the materials. All published works are thoroughly commented. The publication is equipped with a rich visual series: a map of the location of the Women"s Dominican monasteries of Central Europe, the plan of a typical convent (Otnbach, Zurich), as well as substantial illustrations.
