Book Overview
The remarkable monastery of Helfta was a 'place where learning and art, courtesy and holiness flowered in a dark season' of interregnal warfare.* The nuns drew their inspiration from the twin roots of Citeaux: the Rule of Saint Benedict and the constitutions of Citeaux; their spirituality, liturgy, customs, and habits were modelled on those of the White Monks, even though juridically they were not part of the Cistercian Order.

Spiritual Exercises by Gertrude of Helfta
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
This is a wonderful feminine approach to being present to the universal patterns of experience. I use it as reading matter when a woman is doing the Spiritual Exercises of Ignatius of Loyola. My opinion is that Gertrude covers the matters of the Ignatian Exercises from a feminine perspective.
