Heresy in Transition

Transforming Ideas of Heresy in Medieval and Early Modern Europe

Herausgeber: Hunter, Ian

Beschreibung

The essays in this volume offer readers a unique insight into the changing concepts of heresy from the Middle Ages to the early modern period, c.1100 to c.1800. The contributors explore the role of nationalism and linguistic identity in constructions of heresy, its analogies with treason and madness, the role of class and status in the responses to heresy, and provide insights into the roots of the historicization of heresy.
