"The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ According to the Meditations of Anne Catherine Emmerich" (1833), supposedly a transcription of visions experienced by the German nun Anne Catherine Emmerich but in fact composed by German romantic poet Clemens Brentano, greatly increased popular awareness of Pilate's wife (called "Claudia Procles") in the West. The text portrays Claudia Procles as a major character who has several dreams rather than one. Most significantly, Emmerich sees Claudia Procles send the Virgin Mary pieces of linen in order to wipe up the blood from the flagellation of Christ. Another well-known 19th-century work about Pilate's wife is the poem "Pilate's Wife's Dream" by Charlotte Brontë.
