  • Title: Na Prous Boneta and Olivi [When she was first questioned in 1325, Na Prous Boneta was open about her beliefs. She believed she had become the herald of the advent of the Holy Spirit. Prous, who harbored refugee Spiritual Franciscans, also described Pope John XXII, their enemy, as the Antichrist. Prous identified with the condemned Franciscan theologian, Peter Olivi, who believed a papal Antichrist would come. She parted with Olivi in claiming a unique charism and a direct role in ushering in a new age of the Spirit. Title note supplied by Feminae.].
