Angela of Foligno was a 13th-century Italian mystic and member of the Third Order of Saint Francis. Born into a wealthy family in Foligno, she experienced a spiritual conversion around the age of 40, which led her to abandon her worldly life and possessions. She is widely recognized for her profound mystical writings, which detail her spiritual progress and divine revelations. Her theological depth earned her the title *Theologorum Magistra*, or Teacher of Theologians, and she is remembered for establishing a community of women dedicated to charity and service.
