To Heaven with Diana!

First published in 1960, this study and translation (from the original Latin) of the letters of Jordan of Saxony (c. 1190–1237), a Dominican friar, to Diana d’Andalo (1200–1236), a cloistered Dominican nun, brings to life an extraordinary friendship, forged in their shared love of God. Beyond being welcomed by those in religious life, this book will be appealing to readers interested in medieval spirituality, history, and culture. This new edition includes a new foreward by Fr. Carlos Azpiroz Costa, O.P, Master of the Dominican Order, and an editor’s afterword on the vocation of the Dominican Nuns.
