Professor of Religious Studies Daniel Michon published Shadow Puppets, Songs, and Sacred Feasts: Celebrations of Indo-Portuguese Nuns in the Eighteenth-Century Real Convento de Santa Mónica, Goa, India (Iter Press, 2025). Through the translation of two eighteenth-century texts—the shadow puppet play, Entrada de Bonifrate para Festa dos Reis, and the feast of St. John songbook, Cartepaço da Muzica—Michon and co-translator D. A. Smith provide a glimpse into the imaginative lives of cloistered nuns in Asia. Shadow Puppets, Songs, and Sacred Feasts won the 2025 Best Scholarly Edition in Translation Prize from the Society for the Study of Early Modern Women and Gender.
