This book compiles the correspondence between Sister María de Jesús de Ágreda and King Philip IV of Spain. Through these letters, the relationship between religion and reason of state in 17th century Spain can be appreciated. The work includes an introduction that contextualizes the life of Sister María and her role as an intermediary between God and the Spanish monarchy, as well as an analysis of the influence of her advice on the political course of the kingdom. In addition, an appendix is presented with an index of plates and a selection of the most relevant letters.
