The book titled The History Of The Devils Of Loudun V1-3: The Alleged Possession Of The Ursuline Nuns, And The Trial And Execution Of Urbain Grandier was written by Edmund Goldsmid and published in 1887. The book is a three-volume set that chronicles the events surrounding the alleged possession of the Ursuline nuns and the trial and execution of Urbain Grandier in Loudun, France in the 17th century.The book provides a detailed account of the events leading up to the trial, including the political and religious tensions of the time, and the accusations made against Grandier by the nuns. It also explores the controversial theory of mass hysteria and the role it may have played in the alleged possession.Throughout the book, Goldsmid presents a balanced and objective view of the events, drawing on primary sources and contemporary accounts to provide a comprehensive and detailed examination of the case.
