  1. Illuminés

    Illuminés of France is a movement which seems to have reached France from Seville in 1623, and attained some following in Picardy when joined by Pierce Guerin, curé of Saint-Georges de Roye, whose followers, known as Gurinets, were suppressed in 1635. A century later, another, more obscure body of Illuminés came to light in the south of France in 1722, possibly associated with the Alumbrados, and appears to have lingered until 1794, having affinities with those known contemporaneously in the United Kingdom as 'French Prophets', an offshoot of the Camisards.
