總結:The thirteenth-century Latin hagiographic works known as the "Holy Women of Liege" corpus presents biographies filled with dramatic visions of God and intense physical unions with Christ. The texts that make up the collection demonstrate the problematic division of body and soul in the period and also reveal the potential of text to transmit visual experiences.
