This book discusses the ways in which early modern hagiographic
sources can be used to study lived religion and everyday life from
the fifteenth to the seventeenth century. For several decades,
saints' lives, other spiritual biographies, miracle narratives,
canonisation processes, iconography, and dramas, have been widely
utilised in studies on medieval religious practices and social
history. This fruitful material has however been overlooked in
studies of the early modern period, despite the fact that it
witnessed an unprecedented growth in the volume of hagiographic
material. The contributors to this volume address this, and
illuminate how early modern hagiographic material can be used for
the study of topics such as religious life, the social history of
medicine, survival strategies, domestic violence, and the religious
experience of slaves.
