I visited the beguinage in Bruges some years ago and it left a lasting impression on me. Not only for its humble beauty, but for the idea of community that existed.
Absolutely fascinating. I had just finished writing an episode featuring the Sisters of the Common Life before reading this article which sent me down a rabbit hole trying to figure out if and how these beguines influenced their lifestyles, in a practical day to day sense, because they seemed so similar.
Thanks for your post. I enjoyed reading.๐
