Without leaving her village  the abbess impacted the kingdom  her church  and the New World; Spanish Hapsburg king Felipe IV sought her spiritual and political counsel for over twenty-two years. Based upon her transcendent visionary experiences  Sor Mara chronicled the life of Mary  mother of Jesus of Nazareth  in Mystical City of God  a work the Spanish Inquisition temporarily condemned. In America  reports emerged that she had miraculously appeared to Jumano Native Americans--a feat corroborated by witnesses in Spain  Texas  and New Mexico  where she is honored today as the legendary \"Lady in Blue.\" Lauded in Spain as one of the most influential women in its history  and in the United States as an inspiring pioneer  Sor Maras story will appeal to cultural historians and to women who have struggled for equality against all odds. Marilyn Fedewas biography of this fascinating woman integrates voluminous autobiographical  historical  and literary sources published by and about Mara of greda. With liberal access to Sor Maras papal delegate in Spain and convent archives in greda  Fedewa skillfully reconstructs a historical and spiritual backdrop against which Sor Maras voice may be heard.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44762350223413,"sku":"ByrdShop_082634643X","price":238.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780826346438.jpg?v=1784744925","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/maria-of-agreda-mystical-lady-in-blue-9780826346438","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
