The book uncovers three key figures of early sixteenth-century
Italy and their companies adding an innovative perspective to the
historiographical account of sixteenth-century Italian reforming
movements and offering researchers and students of early modern
religion and Italy with a new narrative of the Italian reforming
movements. The companies aimed at reforming not the Church, but
society at large, starting from the inner conversion of the
individual (lay and religious, male and female), in order to return
to the model of the first Christian communities, showing students
and researchers how these reforms influenced and shaped Italian
society. The book also suggests that the companies represented a
specific expression of a wider ascetic and mystic 'unconventional'
current that emerged in parallel with the spiritual milieus that
were open to Luther's ideas, providing researchers and postgraduate
students with an innovative and nuanced analysis of 15th and 16th
century Italian spirituality.
