Description

This scholarly work examines demon possession and exorcism rituals during the early modern period, when such phenomena reached epidemic proportions across France. The study explores how Catholics of the era believed the Devil manifested in heresy, witchcraft, and even within the bodies of devout women, whilst the Church employed exorcism as both a healing practice and a demonstration of ecclesiastical authority. The book investigates the violent nature of these rituals, the suspicions cast upon exorcists themselves, and the complex social and religious tensions that surrounded possession cases among nuns and other afflicted individuals, offering original insight into a critical moment in European religious history.
