Long description:
Confessionalisation and Erudition in Early Modern Europe examines the consequences of the sixteenth-century Reformation for the study of ancient texts and of the past in general. The volume offers the most comprehensive account thus far of the relationship between religious identity-formation and the history of knowledge in early modern Europe.
Its chapters stand individually as worthy contributions, including the highly detailed treatment of regional trends in confessionalization offered in Dmitri Levitin's introduction. More
