Book Synopsis Anchorites, Wombs and Tombs by : Liz Herbert McAvoy
Book excerpt: 'Anchorites, Wombs and Tombs' is a collection dealing with the phenomenon of anchoritic enclosure in the Middle Ages, both as a material practice & as a malleable discourse, not only within the context of individual withdrawal into the anchorhold but also the effect it had upon other established religious communities & the laity.
