Global Reformations offers a sustained, comparative, and interdisciplinary exploration of religious transformations in the early modern world.

The volume explores global developments and tracks the many ways in which Reformation movements shaped relations of Christians with other Christians, and also with Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, and aboriginal groups in the Americas. Contributions explore the negotiations, tensions, and contacts that developed across social, gender, and religious lines in different parts of the globe, focusing on how different convictions about religious reform and approaches to it shaped social action and cross-confessional encounters. The essays explore the convergence of religious reform, global expansion, and governmental consolidation in the early modern world and examine the Reformation as a global phenomenon; the authors ask how a global frame complicates our understanding of what the Reformation itself was and offer a unique and up-to-date examination of the Reformation that broadens readers' understanding in creative and useful ways.

Demonstrating new research and innovative approaches in the study of cross-cultural contact during the early modern period, this volume is ideal for advanced undergraduates and graduates of early modern history, religious history, women's & gender studies, and global history.

Industry Reviews

"Abandoning the eurocentric perspective, the Reformation should be examined as a global and pluralistic phenomenon, in order to see the plastic relations with other faiths. With this goal, Nicholas Terpstra has engaged scholars of different fields and backgrounds, guaranteeing a full and global view and proposing new hypotheses that co-exist with and deepen traditional interpretations. . . . . .the standing and authority of these scholars has not prevented them from entering fully into the discussion, bringing original research and moving to new interpretations. The studies are very interesting, proposing analyses of new or little explored sources, with a significant expansion of the research horizons." Michaela Valente, Nuova Rivista Storica
