A noblewoman in fourteenth-century Provence and Naples, Delphine of Glandèves was known for her learning, piety, charity, poverty, virginity, and penitence. She convinced her husband not to consummate the marriage, and after his death, she followed ideals of radical poverty, charity, and humility. Aided by her friendship with Queen Sancia of Naples, Delphine’s uncompromising ideals gave her a reputation for sanctity among members of the papal court in Avignon and throughout Neapolitan and Provençal society.
