Liturgical life and latin learning at Paradies bei Soest, 1300-1425
inscription and illumination in the choir books of a North German dominican convent
by Jeffrey F. Hamburger, Eva Schlotheuber, Susan Marti, and Margot Elsbeth Fassler
Written by an international team consisting of two art historians, a historian, and a musicologist, this study explores the intellectual, scribal, artistic and musical culture of the Dominican nuns of Paradies from a variety of perspectives. Taking as its subject a little-known group of fourteenthand early fifteenth-century liturgical manuscripts from the Dominican convent of Paradies bei Soest (Westphalia), the book also offers a revisionary account of the development of the Dominican order in late medieval Germany. Two antiphonaries, three graduals and additional fragments made both for and by the nuns testify to a self-conscious liturgical culture closely tied to the development of the Dominican order's female branch.
