Recenzii
’These Carmelite documents are largely unpublished and have been hitherto inaccessible to lay scholars: Hallett is to be congratulated on obtaining the permission of present-day Carmelites to publish these lengthy extracts as they will be of considerable interest to the wider scholarly community... the final result for the reader is a series of individual lives brought together with insight and empathy, clarified by explanatory footnotes where necessary... In a most useful Appendix we are given extracts of the Constitutions and Rule of St Albert another text which is not easily available but which formed the bedrock of conventual life... We look forward to promised future volumes.’ Historians of Women Religious of Britain and Ireland ’This book is a useful resource, not only for the history of the Carmelites, or that of early-modern religious or female religious, but for an understanding of how the Life of the Spirit was expressed in the lives - and deaths - of women.’ Carmelus

Descriere
Yielding a wealth of new material concerning the lives of English nuns in exile in the Low Countries between 1619 and 1794, this volume of religious women's Lives is based on previously unpublished manuscripts. An extensive introduction provides historical and cultural contexts for an understanding of the Lives, and a reappraisal of the self-representation of religious women and of paradigms of life-writing in, and beyond, the early modern period.
