| Description: | A timely and coherent collection on conversion studies of the Early Modern period, considering themes of conversion, materiality, embodiment and early modern spaces across and beyond Europe. -- . In early modern Europe, pressure from the Protestant and Catholic Reformations, the growing might of the Ottoman Empire, and New World encounters meant that an unprecedented number of people were confronted by new beliefs and changing religious identities. Conversions brings together leading scholars from across the disciplines of literature, history, art and architectural history to investigate the interlinked transformations of gender and religious identity in this turbulent period. |
