Catalogue

This catalogue publishes the lives of Castilian women previous to Saint Teresa who acquired a reputation for sanctity or extreme virtue. These lives appear in manuscripts from the 15th-16th centuries and in the various manuscript and printed histories of the religious orders in the province of Castile that were composed in the 17th century, as well as in other works (convent books) or compendiums containing lives of saints (flos sanctorum). Many of these women, who lived between the end of the Middle Ages and the beginning of the 16th century, were visionaries.
