Includes bibliographical references and index.

This title examines the processes of Catholic renewal in the later 16th and 17th centuries, focusing primarily on a series of societies on the European periphery and how Catholicism adapted to very different conditions in areas such as Ireland, Britain, the Netherlands, East-Central Europe, and the Balkans. Rather than treating religious renewal in the later 16th and 17th centuries as essentially a continuation of established patterns of reform, it argues for the need to understand the contingency of this process and its constant adaptation to contemporary events and preoccupations.
