Mother Juana de la Cruz, 1481–1534: Visionary Sermons

Mother Juana de la Cruz, 1481–1534: Visionary Sermons (Volume 47) (The Other Voice in Early Modern Europe: The Toronto Series)

Juana de la Cruz (1481â€“1534) is a unique figure in the history of the Catholic Church,Â thanks to her public visionary experiences during which she lost consciousness, while aÂ deep voice, identifying itselfÂ as Christ, issued from her, narrating the feasts and pageantsÂ taking place in heaven. Juanaâ€™s so called â€œsermons,â€ collected in a manuscript called LibroÂ del Conorte, form a fascinating windowÂ intoÂ Castilian religiosity in the early sixteenthÂ century. There is much to reap from these sermons concerning Spanish Renaissance culture,Â theology, mysticism, gender roles, and interreligiousÂ interactions.
