Late medieval Christians lived in a world of visions, but they knew thatnot all visions came from God: angels, demons, illness, nature, or passion could also inspire an apparent divine visitation. During the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, the involvement of visionaries in everything from reform movements to military campaigns to papal schisms raised the political and spiritual stakes of determining whether or not avision was truly from God. In response, a diverse group of medieval thinkers including men and women, clergy and laity, visionaries and theologians gradually began to transform the loose patristic readings of Pauline discretio spirituum into a system with the potential to distinguish between true and false visions and between genuine and delusional visionaries. Wendy Love Anderson chronicles the historical, political, and spiritual struggles behind the flowering of late medievalmysticism and what came to be seen as the Christian doctrine of discernment of spirits.
