Paper Summary:
Thispaper discusses the Beguines. The Beguines were a spontaneous movement on the part of women, mainly misunderstood but highly prized.

A life of simplicity without denunciation of the world and its comforts was encouraged. Poverty was valued. The focus of these "holy women" was also the service of the poor and needy.More papers on The Beguines:
