Presenting a remarkable set of previously unpublished papers this book concerns the bewitchment possession and exorcism of two seventeenth-century nuns living in exile in an English convent in the Spanish Netherlands.The papers reveal unprecedented detail about their lives before during and after exorcism so that for the first time in 350 years we can hear their voices - and their silences - resound in all their vibrancy.
