Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Urbain Grandier, parson of the French town of Loudun, was tortured and burned at the stake in 1634. He was accused of being in league with the Devil and seducing an entire convent of nuns, in what is the most sensational case of mass possession and sexual hysteria in history. Charming, handsome, dandyish and promiscuous, as soon as Grandier arrived in Loudun it became clear that he took more than a pastoral interest in his female parishioners. His reputation for arousing extraordinary sexual passions in the townswomen spread to the Prioress of the local convent, Sister Jeanne, who became obsessed with the "delicious monster". Soon all the nuns were gripped by fits and convulsions, falling into frenzied orgies of lustful depravity that attracted tourists from all over France. But was Grandier really the sorcerer responsible for their possession, or was it a political frame-up from Cardinal Richelieu down, to get this arrogant, womanizing priest out of the way? Aldous Huxley's account, which was made into a salacious film by Ken Russell, is full of details of witchcraft, gruesone exorcisms and the superstitions of an age haunted by devils. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Urbain Grandier, the vicar of Loudun, was a young man of great ability, but with a taste, unfortunate in a priest, for women and for making enemies. For years these enemies did their best to drive him out of Loudun, but without success. Their opportunity came at last when some Ursuline nuns succumbed to one of those epidemics of hysteria which are so apt to afflict ill~regulated convents. The good sisters were encouraged to believe that they were possessed by devils, and Grandier was then accused of having caused the devils to assail them. Cardinal Richelieu had his reasons for disliking the parson, and the case was made an affair of state, Grandier was tried, condemned as a sorcerer, and burned alive. But that did not put a stop to the possession. New exorcists were called in, chief among whom was the celebrated Jesuit mystic, Jean~Joseph Surin. Surin finally succeeded in expelling the demons who infested the Prioress, but succumbed in the process to the psychological infection, of which she had been the first and principal victim. The narrative in which he described his twenty years of lucid madness and the Prioress's account of her possession are psychological documents of extraordinary interest. The history of Loudun's devils runs the full gamut from the morally squalid to the heroic, from tragic sublimity to the grotesque, from the ugliest superstition to the highest spirituality. Mr. Huxley as told the story against a background of psychological and historical comment. The drama is made to unfold itself in the light, not only of the beliefs and sentiments of the period, but also of contemporary thought and perennial philosophy.
