Abstract

In contrast with the rigor and erudition of the spiritual books of doctors and theologians, which, because they require such a high level of preparation on the part of the reader, have a necessarily limited readership, the lesser genre of the prayer book, very popular throughout Spain’s Old Regime (16th-17th century) has a great social impact stemming from its means of identification with stereotyped traits and behaviors. A selection of prayerbook texts of this period are studied in order to analyze the characteristics of this type of religious literature as well as to infer its psychological implications for the extremely broad sector of society that it reached.
