QuotationEric Colledge in an introduction to an English translation of some sermons of Tauler says that a Dr. Romana Guarnieri has advanced the thesis that The Mirror of Simple Souls was definitely by Marguerite Porete and that the Latin, Italian and French texts are being edited. If you see anything of this, or any articles about it, will you please let me know?
