Christianity and Community in the West [EPUB ebook] 
Essays for John Bossy

How did Christians in early modern Western Europe express their sense of community? This book explores the various ways in which religious identities were defined, developed and defended – within both Protestant and Roman Catholic contexts, in England and on the Continent – over a period vital for the history of Christianity. As such it will be of interest not only to historians of religion but also to students of social and cultural history in general.
