Religion in Social Context in Europe and

This volume brings together twenty-two papers by Richard Trexler and reflects the trajectory of the author's career and various interests. Two of the papers are original works, and eight others appear here in English for the first time. Over time, a sharp turn from political to cultural and social history is evident, even though a dominant concern with the relationship between dependency, religion, and power has persisted. This compilation should be of great interest to scholars of Italian, general European, and conquest American history.
