Northern European Reformations cover

This book examines the experiences and interconnections of the Reformations, principally in Denmark-Norway and Britain and Ireland (but with an eye to the broader Scandinavian landscape as well), and also discusses instances of similarities between the Reformations in both realms. The volume features a comprehensive introduction, and provides a broad survey of the beginnings and progress of the Catholic and Protestant Reformations in Northern Europe, while also highlighting themes of comparison that are common to all of the bloc under consideration, which will be of interest to Reformation scholars across this geographical region.

“The three editors of this volume are to be congratulated on their thought-provoking, clearly structured and beautifully integrated anthology … . the book greatly improves our understanding of the reformations of the early modern period and I commend it wholeheartedly to all interested readers.” (Margit Thofner, Journal of Ecclesiastical History, Vol. 72 (4), October, 2021)

“The editors have performed splendidly, avoiding almost all the pitfalls of a multi-authored collection, including that of categorising their contributors conveniently rather than coherently. The essays speak fluently to one another and there is impressive cross-referencing, sure evidence of thorough and thoughtful editorial attention.” (Thomas O’Connor, Studia Hibernica, Vol. 47 (1), October, 2021)
