This book examines the social, political, and religious
relationships between Calvinists and Catholics during Holland's
Golden Age. Although Holland, the largest province of the Dutch
Republic, was officially Calvinist, its population was one of the
most religiously heterogeneous in early modern Europe. The Catholic
Church was officially disestablished in the 1570s, yet by the 1620s
Catholicism underwent a revival, flourishing in a semi-clandestine
private sphere. The book focuses on how Reformed Protestants dealt
with this revived Catholicism, arguing that confessional
coexistence between Calvinists and Catholics operated within a
number of contiguous and overlapping social, political, and
cultural spaces. The result was a paradox: a society that was at
once Calvinist and pluralist. Christine Kooi maps the daily
interactions between people of different faiths and examines how
religious boundaries were negotiated during an era of tumultuous
religious change.
