The Dominican Order is generally considered the preeminent monastic order of the medieval era, not only for its intellectual tradition but also for its pastoral care. This volume presents contemporary writings from various disciplinary perspectives on questions of innovation and tradition in the medieval context and considers both friars and nuns on questions of knowledge as power and on knowledge of self and the other.
