Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Giulio Malatesta, Vol. 3 of 3: A Novel
It is not to be wondered at, therefore, that a spirit of disaffection and insubordination was ripe in the convent under the new rule. And absolute as is the theory of conventual Obedience, and high as is the notion we outsiders especially are apt to entertain of the unlimited power of the Superior of a religious house, it is an absolutism difficult to be maintained - like other absolutisms - in the face of a disaffection at all general among the subjects of it.
