| Sumario: | A chapter of the book "Studies in Honor of Denah Lida" that talks about Teresa de Cartagena, a deaf nun, and the development of the deaf people's Christian rights is presented. Cartagena wrote the book "Arboleda de los enfermos" to help those people who are suffering from physical illness. During the Middle ages, deaf people were excluded from the Church activities. They were allowed to be baptized in the 5th century, allowed to be married in the 11th century, could be penanced in the 13th century, and could take monastic vows in the 16th century. |
