The English Convents in Exile, 1600–1800
Author: James E. Kelly
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317034023
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
In 1598, the first English convent was established in Brussels and was to be followed by a further 21 enclosed convents across Flanders and France with more than 4,000 women entering them over a 200-year period. In theory they were cut off from the outside world; however, in practice the nuns were not isolated and their contacts and networks spread widely, and their communal culture was sophisticated. Not only were the nuns influenced by continental intellectual culture but they in turn contributed to a developing English Catholic identity moulded by their experience in exile. During this time, these nuns and the Mary Ward sisters found outlets for female expression often unavailable to their secular counterparts, until the French Revolution and its associated violence forced the convents back to England. This interdisciplinary collection demonstrates the cultural importance of the English convents in exile from 1600 to 1800 and is the first collection to focus solely on the English convents.

Between 1600 and 1800 around 4,000 Catholic women left England for a life of exile in the convents of France, Flanders, Portugal and America.

English Catholic Nuns In Exile 1600-1800 A Biographical Register
Author: K. S. B. Keats-Rohan
Publisher: Occasional Publications UPR
ISBN: 1900934140
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 1
Book Description
Revised and extended print edition of online database Who Were The Nuns? A Prosopographical Study of the English Convents in Exile 1600-1800 (https://wwtn.history.qmul.ac.uk), covering around 4100 nuns. During this period Catholics were prevented by law from practising their faith in England. In response, 21 convents were founded in northern France and southern Flanders by and for English women, who saw it as their mission to preserve English Catholicism, predominantly through education in their schools, and by example. The book contains an Appendix on CD containing 303 annotated genealogical charts detailing the family connections between the women, much of which is based on new research using Wills as a source not only for correct genealogy but also to show how their families supported both their daughters and their sons in their often perilous religious lives.
