The Religion of the Poor is an ambitious survey of Catholic
missions into the European countryside from 1500 to 1800. The
acclaimed French historian Louis Chatellier analyses the impulses
to missionary activity at the end of the Middle Ages, and the
specific conception of Ignatius Loyola. He then outlines in detail
the development of missionary activity after the Council of Trent.
In the second part Professor Chatellier discusses the type of
religion proffered by the missionaries, examining a variety of key
themes in Catholic belief, including the role of deity, of the
cross, and of Satan. The book contains a concluding summary of the
impact of these rural missions up to the French Revolution, and
documents the way in which they changed in reaction to external
social and political circumstance.
