Counter Reformation, Catholic Reformation, the Baroque Age, the Tridentine Age, the Confessional Age: why does Catholicism in the early modern era go by so many names? And what political situations, what religious and cultural prejudices in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries gave rise to this confusion? Taking up these questions, John W. O’Malley works out a remarkable guide to the intellectual and historical developments behind the concepts of Catholic reform, the Counter Reformation, and, in his felicitous term, Early Modern Catholicism. The result is the single best overview of scholarship on Catholicism in early modern Europe, delivered in a pithy, lucid, and entertaining style. Although its subject is fundamental to virtually all other issues relating to sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Europe, there is no other book like this in any language.

‘In the last two decades, the history of the Counter-Reformation has been stretched and re-shaped in numerous directions. Reflecting the variety and innovation that characterize studies of early modern Catholicism today, this volume incorporates topics as diverse as life cycle and community, science and the senses, the performing and visual arts, material objects and print culture, war and the state, sacred landscapes and urban structures. Moreover, it challenges the conventional chronological parameters of the Counter-Reformation and introduces the reader to the latest research on global Catholicism. The Ashgate Research Companion to the Counter-Reformation presents a comprehensive examination of recent scholarship on early modern Catholicism in its many guises. It examines how the Tridentine reforms inspired conflict and conversion, and evaluates lives and identities, spirituality, culture and religious change. This wide-ranging and original research guide is a unique resource for scholars and students of European and transnational history.

“Last Things is a triumph in the genre of visual culture, presenting a wide swath of material on the theme of early modern memory and eschatology. Göttler’s text also offers an impressive and detailed engagement with previous research. […] Last Things is a must-read for scholars who have been following the ever-growing field of memory studies.” (Jessica Buskirk, in CAA Reviews, September 23, 2011, URL http://www.caareviews.org/reviews/1703)

In her new book, Selling Jerusalem: Relics, Replicas, Theme Parks, Annabel Jane Wharton charts a course through the commercial and spiritual traffic of Jerusalem and Jerusalem-related memorabilia. Wharton’s central preoccupation is the relationship between commerce, materiality and representation,
and she situates her examination of the evolution of that tripartite relationship in Jerusalem. As she traces an historical trajectory that moves from ancient relics and medieval religious orders to lithographed images, panoramas, and postmodern theme parks, Wharton argues that we might better understand the historical and political attachments to the city of Jerusalem by attending to its representations – fragmented, architectural, touristic, artistic, and virtual.
