Summary
The letter books of the Benedictine nuns of Lüne Abbey provide an insight into their daily life, their interaction with the provost, their families and other convents, and the struggle against the Lutheran Reformation. The edition includes over 450 letters, written in Latin, Low German, and a characteristic mix of both.
