Anotace:	Medievalists, historians and women's studies specialists should welcome this translation of Herbert Grundmann's classic study of religious movements in the Middle Ages, which provides an historiography of medieval religious life - one that lies between the extremes of doctrinal classification and materialistic analysis - and because is represents a major effort to underline the importance of women in the development of the language and practice of religion in the Middle Ages. "Religious Movements in the Middle Ages" describes a lay religious movement of the 11th and 12th centuries that emphasised the centrality of lifestyle rather than doctrine. The religious groups that developed and solidified out of this movement were considered heterodox by some standards, orthodox by others. However, despite initial condemnation, these groups were eventually absorbed into the church and new groups, among them many women's groups, were given permissive rules to suit their peculiarities. Grundmann explicates the doctrines that lay behind these religious movements and captures the material contexts that fostered them. Most importantly he is able to recapture the dynamism of the groups themselves and to identify the historically contingent events that carried them along their various paths. Perhaps the greatest synthetic daring of Grundmann's study is his emphasis on the common point of departure shared by the religious groups that were ultimately to become located on either side of orthodoxy as defined by the Pope. Prior to Grundmann's study scholars had only discussed either high medieval heresy or new orders within the Church, but Grundmann discusses here the common inspiration that lay behind both.
