stigmatization. The reproduction of the wounds of the Passion of Christ in the human body. Stigmata may be either invisible, when the pain is experienced without any exterior sign, or visible, in which case they normally consist of wounds or blood blisters on hands, feet, and near the heart, also on the head or shoulders and back. They do not become septic and resist ordinary treatment. The first person known to have received the stigmata is St Francis of Assisi; later cases have been numerous, predominantly among women. The attitude of the RC Church has been guarded.
