This article is or was the subject of a Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment. Further details are available on the course page.

@Lwhithaus: please make clear whether this article is assigned to you. --Francis Schonken (talk) 05:21, 27 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Vulgate

Moving here for discussion:


Hadewijch wrote 31 letters, which were written in vulgate, a version of Latin intended for common consumption[1], probably because they were to be read aloud to an audience of younger beguines[2].

References

  1. ^ Simons, Walter (2004). The Voice of Silence: Women’s Literacy in a Men’s Church. Brepols. p. 93.
  2. ^ Mommaers, Paul (2004). Hadewijch: Writer, Beguine, Love Mystic. Peeters. pp. 30, 51.

Hadewijch's letters were written in Middle Dutch, not in "vulgate", whatever that is. --Francis Schonken (talk) 05:21, 27 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Beguine

For discussion:


The letters provide biographical information about Hadewijch’s life ‒ specifically she was the leader of her beguine community and was eventually evicted ‒ but they are primarily instructional. Addressing her students and followers like friends, Hadewijch teaches the younger beguines how best to follow her love mysticism[1].

References

  1. ^ Cite error: The named reference :0 was invoked but never defined (see the help page).

These sentences are definitely missing one or more "probably"s. All knowledge about Hadewijch's life is indirect and/or circumstantial and/or open to interpretation. --Francis Schonken (talk) 05:21, 27 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Syntax


Hadewijch strives to communicate to her beguines in the letters is that loving God involves suffering. Ghebreken, meaning failure, and ghebruken, meaning fruition, come up frequently when Hadwijch is reminding her beguines of the difficulties and joys of loving God[1].

References

Syntactically somewhat failing. --Francis Schonken (talk) 05:21, 27 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

General vs. about the letters only


In portraying the unrequited longing for God in the language of courtly love, she uses the word minne to represent Christ, the Holy Ghost, love from God, or love for God[1]. She also touches on these themes when describing her love mysticism in her other writings[2].

Not in its place in a section about the letters only. --Francis Schonken (talk) 05:21, 27 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
