I am currently working on a project on St. Colette of Corbie, and this summer
I will be doing archival research in France. Some of the manuscripts I hope
to consult are held by the Claresses in Poligny. This may be a bit of a long
shot, but does anyone happen to know to whom I should address correspondence
at this house? I found the address (Soeurs Clarisses, 13, rue Sainte-Colette,
39800 Poligny) on the web site for the Franciscans in France, but the name of
the superior is not given. Also, what is the proper way for a lay person to
address the superior in written correspondence in French (I am fluent in
French, but I have never before had occasion to write to the superior of a
French monastic community). Please feel free to respond to these rather
esoteric questions off list ([log in to unmask]). Thanks in advance.
