Recenzii
'This collection ... explores women's responses to religious reformations (and revolutions) along three Atlantic coasts: Europe, Africa, and America. ... Readers researching women's history and spirituality, American studies and religious studies will be interested.' Magistra 'The essays cover a range of topics starting with the familiar in the old world and moving into new territory including Cuba and West Africa concluding with religious revival in the nineteenth century. We see women in a remarkable variety of situations ranging from the extraordinary; danger of ritual execution on the death of their monarch to the more usual; leadership of religious foundations. Several essays demonstrate the value to be obtained from reconsidering the ways historians approach familiar topics.' Recusant History ’...the collection is excellent and enjoyable to read.’ European History Quarterly
Descriere
Drawing upon early modern religious history and the study of the Atlantic World, this collection provides a longue durée overview of women and religion within a transatlantic context. Taking as its starting point the work of Natalie Zemon Davis on the effects of confessional difference among women in the age of religious reformations, the volume expands the focus to encompass a much broader temporal and geographic boundaries. The result is a series of essays that map the effects of religious reform and revival among women in the wider Atlantic world comprising Europe, the Americas, and West Africa from 1550 to 1850.
