Soror Marianna, a freira portugueza is a historical account by Luciano Cordeiro, exploring the life and letters attributed to Mariana Alcoforado, a 17th-century Portuguese nun. This second edition, illustrated and augmented with new documents, delves into the passionate correspondence between the nun of Beja and a French officer. The book examines the authenticity and historical context of the famous Lettres Portugaises, offering insights into the social and personal dynamics of the time. Cordeiro's work provides a detailed analysis of the letters, considering both their literary merit and their reflection of the emotional landscape of a woman caught between religious devotion and earthly love. This edition provides enhanced materials for the study of this intriguing historical and literary figure.
