Another great find in my search for Capuchins in the Scot Cath Arch collection at Aberdeen Uni Museums and Special Collections! A copy of Gregorio Panzani's report on English Catholicism sent to Urban VIII in 1637! A great perspective on critical issues within Catholicism in period! #CathHist #twitterstorians

Thanks to Liliana Pérez Miguel of Departamento de Historia de América for a wonderful insight this afternoon into convent life in 18thc-Lima. The sheer size of the communities, as well as the freedoms that members enjoyed was an eyeopener (complemented by wonderful images and usual habits!). #histmonast

One of the first manuscripts I'm looking at in Aberdeen Uni Museums and Special Collections is this account of Scottish Catholicism in years 1745-47 from the notes of Bishop John Geddes (1735-99). Lots of detail about missionaries working in Scotland and the 1745 Jacobite rising! #twitterstorians #CathHist
