A Companion to Religious Minorities in Early Modern Rome
investigates the lives and stories of the many groups and
individuals in Rome, between 1500 and approximately 1750, who were
not Roman (Latin) Catholic. It shows how early modern Catholic
people and institutions in Rome were directly influenced by their
interactions with other religious traditions. This collection
reveals the significant impact of Protestants, Muslims, Jews, and
Eastern Rite Christians; the influence of the many transient groups
and individual travelers who passed through the city; the unique
contributions of converts to Catholicism, who drew on the religion
of their birth; and the importance of intermediaries, fluent in
more than one culture and religion. Contributors include: Olivia
Adankpo-Labadie, Robert John Clines, Matthew Coneys Wainwright,
Serena Di Nepi, Irene Fosi, Mayu Fujikawa, Sam Kennerley, Emily
Michelson, James Nelson Novoa, Cesare Santus, Piet van Boxel, and
Justine A. Walden.
