Description

Explore the complex history of French convents through this scholarly study from Routledge. This book blends history and architecture with literary analysis to examine how convent spaces were perceived and used between 1600 and 1800. The narrative spans two major historical shifts: the Council of Trent's imposition of strict enclosure and the eventual expulsion of nuns during the French Revolution. This work examines the lives of women living within these walls, viewing them as both captives and refugees from a patriarchal society. While the physical structures featured locks and bars, the study reveals how the cloister remained a porous space for privileged visitors. It provides a unique look at how gender and power shaped the physical and social boundaries of early modern religious life in France.
