AJ Langley is joined by Sean Field to discuss the visionary Margherita Colonna (c. 1255-1280). We discuss her Franciscan influences, her family connections (for better and worse), the differences between her two hagiographies, three year old Jesus taking up space, and being a teenage rebel in the thirteenth century. Also, bonus woman of note: Isabella of France!
