Re–forming Texts, Music, and Church Art in the Early Modern North: Crossing Boundaries: Turku Medieval and Early Modern Studies

Our historical understanding of the Reformation in northern Europe has tended to privilege the idea of disruption and innovation over continuity—yet even the most powerful reformation movements drew on and exchanged ideas with earlier cultural and religious practices. This volume attempts to right the balance, bringing together a roster of experts to trace the continuities between the medieval and early modern period in the Nordic realm, while enabling us to see the Reformation and its changes in a new light.
