AB  - The Mirror of Simple Annihilated Souls and Those Who Only Remain in Will and Desire of Love isregarded as one of the most enigmatic and influential manuscripts in the history of medieval Christianmysticism. Its author was not known until the mid-twentieth century. In 1946, Romana Guarnieriidentified Marguerite Porete, condemned and burned at the stake for “relapsed heresy” in Paris in1310, as the author of this book. This paper aims to introduce Marguerite Porete, who is one of themost interesting forgotten women thinkers in the history of ideas. It will present the major sequencesof her life, recount the rediscovery of The Mirror of Simple Souls by Guarnieri, and focus on itsliterary structure and certain philosophical themes it contains or implies. These selected themes are asfollows: the subversion of the distinction between the learned and the ignorant, the oppositionbetween Reason and Love, a naturalism beyond ascetism, a call for the constitution of a newsubjectivity “beyond good and evil” and a concept of annihilation that denies the existence of freewill.
