Summary:

The Oxford Handbook of the Protestant Reformations covers the "long Reformation" period from around 1400 to 1750 in its European and global dimensions. The handbook investigates the beliefs, practices, and institutions which followed medieval reform movements and Martin Luther's Reformation in Germany. The sixteenth and seventeenth centuries provide a particular focus as the central time for the initial developments of faiths which began to be called "Protestant." Contributors explore the Protestant Reformations in relation to the Catholic Renewal before and after Trent and repeatedly point to areas of convergence among Protestants and Catholics. The handbook highlights the significance of cultural-historical approaches and the history of emotions to understand confessional identities.
