RESUMO

The main objective of this present work is to present the mysticism of an Italian beguine at the end of century XIII and beginning of XIV, called Angela de Foligno. For in such a way, we used the registers found in its only published work, The Book of the Blessed Angela of Foligno, which we launched a reading in phenomenological key, focusing the concepts of suffering and ecstasy. Our hypothesis is that there is a close relationship between the two existent concepts, which importance for its spiritual improvement constitutes what we can understand as the theology of Angela. The composition of the work counts on two referring chapters to the above-named book and more two others that try to contextualize the surrounding spiritual in which this mysticism was present, as also, in a general way, how are the studies related to this subject. We expect that we can finalize getting to what is our first intention: showing the largeness and deepness of these texts, identifying its role in the occidental Christian mystic tradition, as well as its influence on other consecrated names, as Saint John of the Cross and Saint Teresa of Avila
