Leonard P. Hindsley has produced books in his special area of interest - 14th century Dominican women mystics in Germany. That was an unprecedented century of mystic writings produced by Dominican nuns. Margaret Ebner (1291-1351) wrote her Revelations, a spiritual autobiography written at the Monastery of Maria Medingen. In The Mystics of Engelthal: Writings from a Medieval Monastery he surveys the astounding production of mystical texts concerning the nuns and priests of the Monastery of Engelthal. One of these texts appears in Adelheid Langmann's Revelations, also a mystical autobiography. He was able to translate these texts because he holds a doctorate in Germanic Languages and Literatures specializing in medieval literature. He presents commentary and interpretations of these texts having specialized in spirituality for the S.T.L.(Licentiate in Sacred Theology). Forthcoming is a translation and commentary on Christina Ebner's (1277-1356) Sister-Book of Engelthal. He is preparing a book on the Spirituality of St. Dominic as influenced by St. John Cassian. After that he will print a translation of Christina Ebner's spiritual autobiography. Leonard Hindsley is professor emeritus of Providence College and is now happily retired and able to finish these important texts for publication.Read more about this authorRead less about this author
