Research lines / projects proposed
This project aims to analyze the first model of female sanctity during the Counter-Reformation.
The main objectives of this project are 1) The completion of the Catalogue of Living Saints with new additions; 2) The study of how the living saints constitute the first hagiographic model in the Counter-Reformation before the canonization of St. Teresa and the subsequent decline of the paradigm; 3) The completion of the database and geolocation based on the new design implemented at the end of the previous project.
The Catalogue of Living Saints constitutes a fundamental source for new studies, as does the database and geolocation, which are digital tools created specifically to provide a better and more accessible understanding of the phenomenon addressed.
Welcome research lines would be: European living saints; Models of female sanctity during the Counter Reformation; Censorship in female hagiographies.
