Women and the Counter-Reformation in early modern MAnster
Women and the Counter-Reformation in Early Modern MAnster examines how women from different social backgrounds encountered the Counter-Reformation. The focus is on MAnster, a city in the north of Germany, which was exposed to powerful Protestant influences which culminated in the notorious Anabaptist kingdom of 1534. After the defeat of the radical Protestants, the city was returned to Catholicism and a stringent programme of reform was enforced. By examining concubinage, piety, marriage, deviance, and convent reform, core issues of the Counter-Reformation's quest for renewal, this fascinating study shows how women participated in the social and religious changes of the time, and how their lives were shaped by the Counter-Reformation. Employing research into the political, religious, and social institutions, and using an impressive variety of sources, Simone Laqua-O'Donnell engages with the way women experienced the new religiosity,morality, and discipline that was introduced to the city of Mnster during this turbulent time.
