19 – Abbess The Faces Of Episcopal Power

The episcopal power for half man and half woman. The pastoral care as a mirror of the soul, a reflection of the power that has always been in the hands of the male clergy but which exceptionally, in the Conversano area, was exercised by women for almost 600 years.
A story that was, but which in some ways concerns the present day, in which the female figure still has difficulty being considered on an equal footing with the male one.
