1 volume, 450-page, 20-chapter, English-language survey of this phenomenon of early modern Iberian culture. To be published in 2010. Mysticism was of particular interest in the popular devotion of early modern Spain, with cross-fertilizations from Jewish and Islamic traditions and representations in literature, art and music. The study of Spanish mysticism has undergone a revolution in recent years with opening of the Spanish archives (especially those of the Inquisition) in the post-Franco era. But scholarship itself is now prepared to consider mysticism in a far wider range of manifestations than before: not just mainstream orthodox saints, but marginal figures are now seen as practicioners of mysticism and evidence is now examined and accepted which does not fall into traditional paradigms or academic traditions.
