The first full-scale study of an often-discussed but little understood heresy, the Alumbrados or 'Illuminated Ones', whose heterodox and sometimes extreme practices of mysticism and piety resulted in their suppression by the Spanish Inquisition.
Alastair Hamilton was educated at Eton and King's College, Cambridge. Formerly Professor of English at the University of Urbino, he is now Professor of Radical Reformation History at the University of Amsterdam and The C.L. Thijsen-Schoute Professor of the History of Ideas at the University of Leiden. His numerous published works in Britain and abroad include articles on Spanish, English and Dutch ecclesiastical history as well as several major books on a diversity of historical subjects.
