Angela of Foligno was an Italian Franciscan tertiary who became known as a mystic from her extensive writings about her mystical revelations. Due to the respect those writings engendered in the Catholic Church she became known as Theologorum Magistra, as first used by Maximilian Sandaeus, later cited by Bollandus in the Acta Sanctorum.
