Central to the book is the complex set of relationships between traditional religion and the forces of change.

‘Pollard’s survey is a very important book. It is the first such comprehensive historical assessment of the period to appear in English. It is also important for its excellent notes, index, and bibliography. These could easily be the point of departure for further profitable research.’ – Church Times
'In his multidimensional study of Catholicism in Italy from the nineteenth to the twenty-first century, John Pollard explores the impact of modernization on the Catholic Church […] [and] the creation of a selfconfident and durable Catholic subculture that served to insulate the faithful from many of the challenges of modernization. Pollard offers a valuable overview of modern Italian religious history.' – Peter C. Kent, University of New Brunswick, The Catholic Historical Review
