AB Haliczer's analysis draws on two major sources: a series of thirty biographies and autobiographies of female mystics active in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Spain, and the records of fifteen cases brought to bear by the Inquisition on women accused of faking the symptoms of mystical experience. This sample is supplemented by materials drawn from devotional works, theological treatises, Flos sanctorum, and various other types of Inquisition record.
