The Passion of Anne-Catherine Emmerich

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

by MARCELLE-MAURETTE translated and adapted by ADRIAN VALE with Stephen Murray and Joanna Dunham
The action takes place In Dulmen, a small town In Westphalia.
Time: early years of the 19th century
Anne-Catherine Emmerich - the 'Nun of Dülmen ' ― how should we think of her? Impostor? Madwoman? An over-imaginative peasant-girl? Or - as one man at least came to believe - a saint? Unrecognised by her Church, scorned by her fellow-citizens, hers was a body that took upon itself the love of God - a soul which remained forever that of a child.
Disciples, Roman soldiers, Citizens of Jerusalem, Pharisees Produced by ARCHIE CAMPBELL
