Saint Catherine of Siena’s faith practice included a dedication to mortification of the flesh\, practitioners of which believed they should subdue desires\, which are at war with their soul\, by means of self-inflicted suffering. She began her practice of self-harm at the age of eight\, culminating in her death via self-imposed starvation at 33. Not considered suicide by the church leaders of the time\, her death was recorded instead as succumbing to pious fasting and called\, posthumously\, anorexia “mirabilis\,” Latin for “wonderful.” Looking at her life and death will be my point of entry for discussing animosity toward the female body in\, but not restricted to\, high-control Western religious environments. Exploring how these attitudes toward women have been internalized and propagated has urgency for everybody\, female or otherwise.
