  • RAFAEL SANZ. – Las clarisas de San Antonio de Segovia en la época de las guerras con los franceses en 1808 (479-490) This contribution highlights the experiences of the Poor Clares at Segovia during the war with the French in the early days of the 19th century. More specifically, it transcribes the report of the flight of the sisters between December 1808 and January 1809, written by their Vicar, Fr. Francisco Muñoz. The group of refugees was composed of 24 choir sisters and one novice (their names are listed in the document), five “lay” sisters (called criadas), three Franciscan friars, and eventually a small group of Carmelite sisters of Lerma who previously had sought shelter with the Segovian Poor Clares. The adventurous journey led them to San Martín de Valdeiglesias where they were hosted for six weeks by the Elisabethan Sisters of the Third Order Regular.
