Description

Explore the history of English religious life through this detailed study of the English convents established in exile between 1600 and 1800. Following the establishment of the first convent in Brussels in 1598, a network of 21 enclosed convents grew across Flanders and France. This book examines how more than 4,000 women lived within these communities over a 200-year period. While these convents were theoretically isolated, the research shows that the nuns maintained wide-reaching contacts and networks. The text looks at how these women were influenced by continental intellectual culture and how they helped shape a developing English Catholic identity through their unique experiences in exile. This work provides a deep look into the communal culture and social networks of these historical religious institutions.
