Resumen


Si bien sabemos que los enfermos medievales tenían opciones de atención médica y sabían cómo acceder a ellas, una evidencia “desde la base” es poco frecuente. Utilizando como fuente el testimonio de los testigos del proceso de canonización de la condesa Delphine de Puimichel, este artículo trata sobre cómo la gente buscó la curación milagrosa a través de una mujer santa reacia a sanar. Las fuentes revelan cómo los testigos utilizaron la falta de acceso a la atención médica, el fracaso de la misma, el peligro inmediato y el sufrimiento de larga duración como vías para acceder al contacto sanador de la condesa Delphine o de sus reliquias.
