I read long passages in Spanish from her works in college. Her work is held in respect as exemplary of women’s fiction and Spanish literature of the 16th century.

I am in the process of reading Vol. I of her life. She is the first “Doctor of the Church,” one who explains and expresses the Church with great clarity and erudition. Quite a prayer warrior.

The numerous musical settings of the Stabat Mater Dolorosa [The Mother (of Jesus) stands weeping] in the ... Catholic repertoire all seek to reproduce the kind of sympathetic suffering Teresa then felt.

This is a 13th century hymn, actually, and the original musical settings were more for the people. The people at the time related well to the Sorrows of the Blessed Mother.

What are you doing, emulating the Drive-By Media?

I should thank you though, because I now want to read the book by St. Teresa I have that I've been meaning to read for years now!

Look at that! I didn't know we had an Obama supporter on the thread! I'm not surprised, really. This isn't the first time that a Catholic on this forum accused all Protestants of wearing the white hood!
