Select Works Vol. 1

Within your hands is a rare piece of literature, not simply because it discusses "women,” but because a woman, living a vowed celibate life, wrote it, and yet you can feel her yearning and intensity for what she will never be nor experience. This work is written at a time when females were not considered equal with their male counterparts, something that this writer not only defies but also, quite skillfully, dissects T. Aquinas and interjects Bonaventure’s intentions with Augustinian overtures. This work is densely written; it will and should take a more concerted effort to appreciate. It is well written, keenly articulated, and skillfully crafted by some of the Christian Church's greatest orators. To date, this is the only comparative study of the topic of "Immaculate Conception.".
