Produktinformationen zu „The Protestant Reformation in a Context of Global History “
The volume is not concerned with the (pretended) world effects of the Reformation. The essays turn this traditional Eurocentric approach into a global transconfessional and transreligious perspective. The aim is to evaluate whether or not Catholicism, Orthodox Christianity, Judaism, Islam and Hinduism had movements similar or equivalent to the Protestant Reformation in Latin (Western) European Civilization. Specific attention is dedicated to phenomena and categories - e.g. freedom of religion or belief - that originated during the Reformation and to whom the contemporary age has bestowed new topicality.

The present volume offers the papers of an international conference held in Trento from October 28 to 29, 2016 at the Istituto storico italo-germanico (ISIG). It used the opportunity of the 500th anniversary of the Reformation to reconsider the events within Latin Christianity in a comparative perspective and to consider them globally. The universal religious sociology of Max Weber was used and evaluated in the light of the new theoretical and methodological conditions of interdisciplinary and international research. At a moment when the debate not only in Germany is focusing on Luther and his ninety-five theses, the editors are proud to offer to the international public a volume that, in addition to the Wittenberg magnifying glass, uses the global telescope to understand the meaning of reforms or reformations in past and present times.
