Description

Explore a unique chapter of European history with this scholarly work from Brill. Part of the Numen Book Series (167), this book examines the phenomenon of the stigmatic during the nineteenth century. It focuses on a new type of mystic who bore physical stigmata, creating a complex social dynamic. These young women occupied a unique space in society, being viewed as both holy saints and public celebrities. The text tracks how they drew massive attention and how their presence shaped religious and social perceptions. This book is an essential resource for those interested in the intersection of religious devotion and the rise of celebrity culture in Europe between 1800 and 1950. It provides a detailed look at how these figures were promoted and perceived during a transformative era in European history.
