Jesus in Our Wombs: Embodying Modernity in a Mexican Convent - Ethnographic Studies in Subjectivity
Rebecca J. Lester
Takes us behind the walls of a Roman Catholic convent in central Mexico to explore the lives, training, and experiences of a group of postulants - young women in the first stage of religious training as nuns. This book considers how these aspiring nuns learn to experience God by cultivating an altered experience of their own female bodies.
