Now available in paperback, this volume compares the position of
Catholic minorities in England and the Dutch Republic. Looking
beyond the tales of persecution that have dominated traditional
historiography, the contributors focus on the realities of Catholic
existence. Thematically organised, the book explores Catholicism as
a minority culture that resorted to unorthodox means, both to
retain its own identity, and to survive in a hostile political
environment. It examines ritual, material culture, international
networks, and above all relations: between laity and clergy, men
and women, Catholics and Protestants By highlighting differences as
well as similarities between the English and Dutch experiences,
'Catholic communities in Protestant states' will help both
undergraduate readers and specialists to rethink the history of
Catholicism and the consequences of minority status for religious
communities. -- .
