Abstract: '...a study in female individuation. Through an analysis of the seventeenth-century visionary nun Isabel de la Cruz, Ruth Anthony El Saffar examines the process of individuation in women, and questions whether, in seeking to achieve this Jungian ideal, women are being asked instead to adapt to images of the feminine that are constructed by patriarchal culture.'
