review: Editorial Reviews About the Author Anne Catherine Emmerich was born to poor parents at Westphalia, Germany in 1774. When she was twenty-eight years old she became an Augustinian nun at Dulmen, and apparently began to experience ecstasies as a result of spiritual favors. She received the Stigmata in 1813, confined to her bed, and reportedly convinced a vicar-general, Overberg, and three physicians of her sanctity. She later reported that she had seen visions of Christ and the souls in purgatory as a child, as well as a circular core with three sections representing the Trinity. She is the author of The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ , The Life of the Blessed Virgin Mary , Life of Jesus Christ and Biblical Revelations , and The Bitter Passion and the Life of Mary . Anne Emmerich died on February 9, 1824 and was beatified by Pope John Paul II in 2004.
