About this book

A group of European and American scholars examines new forms of devotion at the end of the Middle Ages. The shift of the focus from the Dutch Devotio moderna to similar institutions and practices mainly in Germany, Northern Italy and Central Europe emphasizes the function of social groups in this context and historicizes the perspectives shaped by the Reformation, the development of the Nation-State, and more recently by the Cold War.
