The second edition of The World of Catholic Renewal offers an
updated synthesis of the vast scholarship on the history of
Catholicism from the Council of Trent in the middle of the
sixteenth century to the suppression of the Society of Jesus in the
eighteenth century. Professor Hsia discusses the doctrinal and
ecclesiastical renewal after Trent and the progress of Catholic
reconquest in various lands. He analyses the social composition of
the Tridentine clergy and the papal curia and studies the making of
early modern sainthood and the enclosure of religious women.
Encompassing art and architecture, Ronnie Hsia attempts to
understand Catholic renewal as a vast historical development that
shaped European civilization and also explores its expansion and
encounter with non-Christian cultures in America, Africa, and Asia.
The new edition of this acclaimed textbook offers an additional
chapter on The Catholic Book as well as an updated bibliography.
