The Long European Reformation: Religion, Political Conflict and the Search for Confirmity, 1350-1750 (European History in Perspective)

by Peter George Wallace

The Long European Reformation: Religion, Political Conflict and the Search for Confirmity, 1350-1750 (European History in Perspective) Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Peter G. Wallace interweaves the Reformation into the transformations of political institutions, socioeconomic structures, gender relations, and cultural values in early modern Europe. In approaching the European Reformation as a long-term process, Wallace argues that the classic sixteenth-century religious struggles with the resolutions proposed by reformers such as Luther, were not fully realized for most Christians until the early eighteenth century.

Peter G. Wallace is Dewar Professor of History, Hartwick College, New York.
