Crossing the Boundaries of Belief Geographies of Religious Conversion in Southern Germany, 1648-1800【電子書籍】[ Duane J. Corpis ]

＜p＞In early modern Germany, religious conversion was a profoundly social and political phenomenon rather than purely an act of private conscience. Because social norms and legal requirements demanded that every subject declare membership in one of the state-sanctioned Christian churches, the act of religious conversion regularly tested the geographical and political boundaries separating Catholics and Protestants. In a period when church and state cooperated to impose religious conformity, regulate confessional difference, and promote moral and social order, the choice to convert was seen as a disruptive act of disobedience. Investigating the tensions inherent in the creation of religious communities and the fashioning of religious identities in Germany after the Thirty Years' War, Duane Corpis examines the complex social interactions, political implications, and cultural meanings of conversion in this moment of German history.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In ＜em＞Crossing the Boundaries of Belief,＜/em＞ Corp．．．楽天市場のショップで商品詳細の続きを見る
