This work considers how Frenchwomen participated in Christian
religious practice during the sixteenth century, with their words
and their actions. Using extensive original and archival sources,
it provides a comprehensive study of how women contributed to
institutional, theological, devotional and political religious
matters. Challenging the view of religious reforms and ideas
imposed by male authorities upon women, this study argues instead
that women, Catholic and Calvinist, lay and monastic, were deeply
involved in the culture, meanings and development of contemporary
religious practices.
This collection asks new questions about the household, examining
the kinds of positive and negative emotional scope available to
household members drawn together by shared economic, social and
biological needs rather than by blood ties. Through a range of case
studies across Western Europe, the collection considers varied
methodological approaches and sources to explore emotional realms
between household members, and grapples with the challenges of
historicizing both the household and emotions.
