What happened to Hadejwich
What happened to Hadejwich and Mechtilde?
Hadewijch and Mechtild
Funny you ask, that's the episode I'm working on now (hoping to write the script tomorrow, I have done the research already). I thought I would put them in between the Franciscans and Dominicans, kind of as a break from all the scholasticism. They will be episode 237, which will come right after the summer break so I'm afraid it will be a couple of months yet.
