Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the extraordinary life and spiritual journey of St. Bridget of Sweden, a prominent figure in medieval church history. Set against the backdrop of 14th-century Europe, a period marked by political turmoil, social unrest, and the devastating Black Death, the book explores St. Bridget's unwavering faith and her quest to reform the Church. Born into a noble Swedish family, St. Bridget experienced visions and revelations from a young age, shaping her profound devotion to Christ and the Virgin Mary. The book recounts her early life, marriage, and eventual widowhood, highlighting her charitable works and growing reputation for piety. After establishing a new religious order dedicated to the Virgin Mary, St. Bridget embarked on a pilgrimage to Rome, seeking papal approval for her order and aiming to encourage the Pope's return from Avignon. Amidst the chaos and moral decay of 14th-century Rome, St. Bridget's unwavering faith and determination to bring about spiritual renewal shine through. The book explores her interactions with religious and political figures, including the enigmatic Cola di Rienzi, and her enduring legacy as a reformer and mystic. By examining St. Bridget's life and visions, the book offers valuable insights into the complexities of faith, the challenges faced by the medieval Church, and the enduring power of one woman's devotion to inspire change.
