Reviews
"This is a brilliant and important book. It undertakes, in a highly convincing fashion, a radical reinterpretation of the career of one of the most important figures in medieval religious history. F. Thomas Luongo's rereading of Catherine's letters in the context of local and papal politics is highly compelling and he deftly explains why--through the hagiographical writings of her biographers and through modern interpretive agendas--Catherine has been consistently extracted from this political context. There is no comparable book: the research here is groundbreaking."--Maureen Miller, University of California, Berkeley, "F. Thomas Luongo establishes beyond question the influential roles played by Catherine of Siena's family and followers in the embattled worlds of Tuscan and ecclesiastical politics, confirming Catherine's centrality in Italian affairs during the key years of 1374-1378. In situating Catherine in her historical moment and defying hagiographic accounts dismissive of her public role, The Saintly Politics of Catherine of Siena helps us understand the enigma of the saint's authority: not so much how did Catherine get Christ's ear, but why did people think that she had it in the first place?"--Jane Tylus, New York University, "F.
