Domestic Devotions in Early Modern Italy illuminates the vibrancy
of spiritual beliefs and practices which profoundly shaped family
life in this era. Scholarship on Catholicism has tended to focus on
institutions, but the home was the site of religious instruction
and reading, prayer and meditation, communal worship, multi-sensory
devotions, contemplation of religious images and the performance of
rituals, as well as extraordinary events such as miracles. Drawing
on a wide range of sources, this volume affirms the central place
of the household to spiritual life and reveals the myriad ways in
which devotion met domestic needs. The seventeen essays encompass
religious history, the histories of art and architecture, material
culture, musicology, literary history, and social and cultural
history. Contributors are Erminia Ardissino, Michele Bacci, Michael
J. Brody, Giorgio Caravale, Maya Corry, Remi Chiu, Sabrina
Corbellini, Stefano Dall'Aglio, Marco Faini, Iain Fenlon, Irene
Galandra Cooper, Jane Garnett, Joanna Kostylo, Alessia Meneghin,
Margaret A. Morse, Elisa Novi Chavarria, Gervase Rosser, Zuzanna
Sarnecka, Katherine Tycz, and Valeria Viola.
