The Dreamer of the Calle de San Salvador by Roger Osborne

The Dreamer of the Calle de San Salvador by Roger Osborne

The dreamer of Calle San Salvador was Lucrecia de Leon, a 19-year-old Madrilena whose prophetic dreams were recorded and published by a disaffected group of clerics for three years from 1587. They transcribed 400 of Lucrecia's dreams, which they considered to be messages from God. The dreams warned of the defeat of the Armada, of the death of King Philip II, of the fall of Spain and of a new beginning under a new king - all told in bold and highly original versions. As some of her prophecies came true and as the Spanish court grew more discontented, she fell foul of the authorities and was arrested by the Holy Order. This book produces 35 of Lucrecia's most captivating dreams out of the 400, each accompanied by a commentary which aims to help us to see the world through the eyes of Lucrecia and helps us to understand the nature of her visions and of the time and place she inhabited.
