9. Systrarnas verksamhet, undervisning och uppfostran i Vadstena kloster 1384-1595
Sammanfattning : The purpose of this dissertation is to reconstruct and understand the essential meaning of the teaching and upbringing, which women received at the birgittine mother Abbey in Vadstena during the Middle Ages, from the starting point of source material, contemporary literature and modem research. The method of this reconstructional work can be characterized as hermeneutical existential, which in this case means that the interpretation work is focused on understanding the life conditions and existential situation of the women in the convent and the texts and other cultural artefacts which were produced by themselves or had some connection with their situation.
