Only edition. Mary Saurin Sister Mary Scholastica Joseph brought a case against her superior and another nun for assault and conspiracy to drive her from her convent and have her expelled from the order. Known as "the great convent trial" it was a sensational case that fueled contemporary prejudices against Catholics monastic orders and women. These themes are apparent in the Solicitor-General's opening remarks. This case shows "what women were capable of when they shut themselves up from their kind and did violence to the instincts of their nature and the great though mean and petty cruelty they could wreak upon a sister in the name of a religion of love" 2. The jury found in favor of the defendants on the counts of assault and for the plaintiff on the counts of libel and conspiracy to have her expelled from the convent.

The Aragon humanist scholar Juan Cristóbal Calvete de Estrella ca. 1510/20-1593 served in the Spanish court of Charles V who appointed him tutor to Prince Philip 1527-1598 in 1541. He accompanied Philip on these travels so that his book forms an essential primary source for both the life and personality of the future King Philip II who was to bring Spain its golden age and its greatest power and wealth and for the early beginnings of his relations with the Netherlands which was to revolt against the King bring about Spain's fall from power and develop its own golden age as an independent state.
