This book traces the influence of his prophecies concerning a "Third Age of the Spirit" to come, as later expressed in the themes of "New Spiritual Men", "Last World Emperor", "Angelic Pope", and "Renovatio Mundi". It shows that these ideas were not only the mainspring of various heterodox groups, but also engaged the attention of certain church leaders, university scholars, Renaissance thinkers, Protestant theologians, and political rulers down to the seventeenth century. Marjorie Reeves is a former Vice-Principal and Fellow of St. Anne's College, Oxford. She has authored and coauthored several volumes on Joachimism, including The figure of Joachim of Fiore and Joachim of Fiore and the Prophetic Future.
