Екатерина Сиенская цитаты

Екатери́на Сие́нская — терциарка доминиканского ордена, итальянская религиозная деятельница и писательница позднего Средневековья, оставившая множество писем и мистическое сочинение «Диалоги о Провидении Божьем». Занималась активной политической и миротворческой деятельностью, способствовала возвращению пап в Рим из Авиньонского пленения, убедив Григория XI перенести Святой Престол обратно в Италию. Вела чрезвычайно аскетический образ жизни и имела видения, из которых особо известны мистическое обручение и стигматизация. Причислена к лику святых Католической церковью, является одной из самых почитаемых святых женщин в католицизме, признана одной из четырёх женщин-Учителей Церкви.

Своими сочинениями к концу XIV века Екатерина завершила дело превращения итальянского языка в литературный, предпринятое Данте в начале века, доказав, что народный язык — volgare — также может быть языком богословия и мистики. Стала первой женщиной, которой впервые за долгое время разрешили проповедовать в церкви, нарушив завет апостола Павла, который запрещал женщинам проповедовать и обращаться к собраниям. Wikipedia
