A 17th century le***an nun? 4/20, HH221, 7pm

Benedetta (2021, dir. Paul Verhoeven)

Verhoeven’s sexually graphic, violent, often shocking film is based loosely on Judith Brown’s Immodest Acts: The Life of a Le***an Nun in Renaissance Italy (1985). Benedetta Carlini (1590–1661), an Italian nun in the Convent of the Mother of God in Pescia, claimed she experienced mystic visions. As her fame spread, she came to the attention of the Counter-Reformation papacy. That institution was seeking to control potentially troublesome mystics who showed any signs of false claims or heretical beliefs as did Benedetta. A series of investigations ensued to determine the legitimacy of her claims. Unexpectedly, when they interrogated another sister, Bartolomea, they found that the two women had engaged in sexual relations. Benedetta was stripped of her rank as abbess and remained in the convent prison until her death.

Dr. Joanne Ferraro, Albert W. Johnson Distinguished Professor of
History Emerita, will introduce the film.
