medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Georg Jenal, "Il monachesimo femminile in Italia tra Tardo Anticho e
Medioevo," in Il monachesimo femminile in Italia dall' Alto Medioevo al
secolo XVII a confronto con l'oggi, ed. Gabriella Zarri (San Pietro in
Cariano: Il Segno dei Gabrielli editori, 1997), pp. 17-39.
This article describes the number of women ascetics as high compared to
those of their male counterparts in Late Antiquity but fewer in numbers by
the time of Gregory the Great.
