The popes loved them

The Vatican is considered one of the last male domains. Nevertheless, among the burial sites in St. Peter's Basilica in Rome are four tombs of women. Which historical circumstances led to Mathilde of Canossa, Charlotte Lusignan-Savoyen, Christina of Sweden, and Maria Clementina Stuart being buried there and immortalized in stone? Martha Schad, one of Germany's most prominent non-fiction authors, explores these questions. In her book, she presents centuries of religious history from a completely new perspective.
