Focusing on policy, rather than religious institutions, Professor
Ward offers a brief, but comprehensive, account of religious belief
and practice of all kinds in Europe between the Westphalia
settlements in 1648 and the French Revolution. The book is
organised around large regions, for instance, Central and
Northwestern Europe (including Britain), Southern Europe and North
and Eastern Europe. Professor Ward discusses the political, social
and intellectual forces at play in each of these regions in order
to allow the reader to understand changes in policy in their proper
context. In addition, popular belief, which churches of all
denominations regarded as suspicious, is presented in its context
of traditional practice, and an attempt is made to assess the
successes and failures of European domestic missions during this
period. With its maps, glossary and guide to further reading, this
will be a major aid to students of Christianity under the Ancien
Regime.
