The Necessary Wisdom of Medieval Women

Wednesday, September 5 marks the first of four "First Wednesdays" in which Meg Gorman and I will explore the inner landscape of the Middle Ages through the eyes of some of its finest women. For those who live over the hill, please join us at 7 pm at St. Paul's Episcopal Church, 1120 Court Street, San Rafael, CA. For those of you who can't, summaries of our discussion will appear here, as well as suggestions for further reading you can pick up at St. Aidan's.
