Political and legal perspectives
Before the last quarter of the eighteenth century there was a generally clear and remarkably uniform pattern of church-state relationships across Europe. In the course of the nineteenth century this firm alliance between political and religious establishments broke down. Religious pluralism developed everywhere, though at different speeds, requiring church and state to reach fresh solutions. This volume Political and Legal Perspectives highlights the impact of broad political change, 'democratization',...

Neo-Latin commentaries and the management of knowledge in the late Middle Ages and the early modern period (1400-1700)
Profound study of one of the most important genres within Humanist scholarship. Between 1400 and 1700 the political, religious, intellectual, and even geographic landscape was profoundly changed by the Reformation, Humanism, the rise of empirical science, the invention of printing technology, and the discovery of the New World. The late medieval and early modern intellectuals felt an urgent need to respond to the changes they were involved in, and to come to a revision and re-authorisation of knowledge....

The Maritain factor
taking religion into interwar modernism
By studying the reception and perception of the French Catholic philosopher Jacques Maritain, this book argues that European modernist artists and intellectuals sought a primordial finality in Catholicism. The French poet, writer, and surrealist filmmaker Jean Cocteau converted under the influence of Maritain. For the painters Gino Severini, a pioneer of Futurism, and Otto Van Rees, one of the first Dadaists -both converts- Maritain played the role of spiritual counselor. And when the promoter of...

Kadoc Christian homes
religion, family and domesticity in the 19th and 20th centuries
Christian ideas on family, religion, and the home in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The cult of domesticity has often been linked to the privatization of religion and the idealisation of the motherly ideal of the 'angel in the house'. This book revisits the Christian home of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and sheds new light on the stereotypical distinction between the private and public spheres and their inhabitants. Emphasizing the importance of patriarchal domesticity during the...

Piety and modernity
Third volume in the series Dynamics of Religious Reform. Piety and Modernity examines the dynamics of religious reform from the point of view of piety and devotional life between 1780 and 1920 in Britain, Ireland, Scandinavia, Germany, and the Low Countries. The 'long' nineteenth century saw the introduction of devotional organizations as a means of channeling popular religion. This era also witnessed the translation and publication of devotional books, journals, and pamphlets on a massive scale....

The transformation of the christian churches in Western Europe
1945-2000
Research continues to show that the Christian religion is gradually disappearing from the public, cultural and social spheres in Western Europe. Even on the individual level, institutionalised religion is becoming increasingly marginalised. Some scholars, however, speak of a repositioning of the Christian churches in post-modern Europe, citing new forms of religious life and community. This book focuses on the complex mutations the Christian churches in Western Europe have experienced since World...

Tine Van Osselaer The pious sex
catholic constructions of masculinity and femininity in Belgium, c. 1800-1940
The construction of gender in Belgian Catholicism. Although women were called the 'pious sex' much earlier, it was during the nineteenth century, when the differences between men and women were being made more explicit, that an intense bond between women and religion was developed. Religiosity was thought to be a 'natural' part of femininity and turned religious masculinity into an oddity. This clear-cut gender ideology, however, remains an ideology (prescribed and contested) that needs to be put...

Kadoc Sign or symptom?
exceptional corporeal phenomena in religion and medicine in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries
Religion and science on paranormal events. Described as 'the hand of God', as 'pathological' or even as 'a clever trick', exceptional corporeal phenomena such as miraculous cures, stigmata, and incorrupt corpses have triggered heated debates in the past. Depending on their definition as either 'supernatural', 'psycho-somatic' or 'fraudulent', different authorities have sought to explain these enigmatic occurrences by stimulating inquiries and claiming jurisdiction over them. As a consequence, separate...

Kadoc Charity and social welfare
How churches in Northern Europe reinvented their role as providers of social relief. Charity is a word that fits well in the history of religion and churches, whereas the concept of social reform seems to belong more to the vocabulary of the modern welfare states. Christian charity found itself, during the long nineteenth century, within the maelstrom of social turmoil. In this context of social unrest, although charity managed to confirm its relevance, it was also subjected to fierce criticism,...

Matthias Meirlaen Revoluties in de klas
secundair geschiedenisonderwijs in de Zuidelijke Nederlanden, 1750-1850
Tussen 1750 en 1850 vormden de Zuidelijke Nederlanden het toneel van verschillende politieke omwentelingen. De Oostenrijkse, Franse revolutionaire, Napoleontische, Hollandse en Belgische bestuurders volgden elkaar in een snel tempo op. In het kader van de beoogde bestuurlijke centralisatie, stond het onderwijs tijdens deze regimewissels telkens bovenaan de politieke agenda. Vooral over het curriculum voor het secundair onderwijs werd hevig gediscussieerd. 'Revoluties in de klas' gaat uitvoerig in...

Ivo Nieuwenhuis Het was maar een grapje
Nederland in tien humorschandalen
‘Humor is om te lachen’, zo luidt het cliché. Maar mensen kunnen zich er ook enorm kwaad over maken. Van Wim Sonnevelds Frater Venantius tot Koot en Bies Tegenpartij en Youp van ’t Heks pisnicht – stuk voor stuk vormden ze de aanleiding tot een fikse rel. Een publieke woede-uitbarsting over humor vertelt ons veel over de tijdsgeest, en over hoe die soms ineens omslaat. Aangevuurd door de (sociale) media kan de spanning hoog oplopen. In die cocktail van veranderende normen en waarden, hoge kijkcijfers...

Jacopo Cellini Universalism and liberation
Italian catholic culture and the idea of international community, 1963-1978
The changing attitude of Catholic culture towards modernity. After decades of a problematic, if not plainly hostile, approach to modernity by Catholic culture, the 1960s marked the beginning of a new era. As the Church employed a more positive approach to the world, voices in the Catholic milieu embraced a radical perspective, channeling the need for social justice for the poor and the oppressed. The alternative and complementary world views of 'universalism' and 'liberation' would drive the engagement...
