About the book
Using case-studies and biographies, the author examines women's mysticism in 16th- and 17th-century Spain and investigates the spiritual forces that provided women with a way to transcend the control of the male-dominated Catholic Church.
First sentence: Notwithstanding the onset of the scientific revolution, the dominant intellectual concern in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Europe was the search for the way in which humans could directly receive the influence of heavenly forces.
