Book From Strangers to Citizens

Download or read book From Strangers to Citizens written by Randolph Vigne and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 616 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifty-seven contributions from international scholars describe the experiences of the immigrants, many fleeing religious persecution, who came to Britain and its colonies and Ireland between 1550 and 1750. Originally presented at a London conference in 2001, the papers consider the ways in which immigrant groups integrated into their host societies and the ways in which they maintained their own distinctive identities. Topics include, for example, the "stranger churches," contributions of immigrants to English intellectual life, and political consciousness among Huguenot refugees.

Book The Huguenot Population of France  1600 1685

Download or read book The Huguenot Population of France 1600 1685 written by Philip Benedict and published by American Philosophical Society. This book was released on 1991 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This vol. has been built upon all of the known parish register & census evidence bearing upon the changing size of France's Huguenot population over the course of the period between the Edict of Nantes & its Revocation -- specifically, upon census figures or annual totals of baptisms for any Protestant church or community for which such evidence spans 40 or more years of the cent. This national investigation is offered in the hope that it can help to stimulate more of the detailed local studies of individual Protestant communities & of the relations between their members & their Catholic neighbors that are needed to illuminate these variations, as well as to highlight those regions where such studies might be particularly fruitful.

Book Religion and Royal Justice in Early Modern France

Download or read book Religion and Royal Justice in Early Modern France written by Diane C. Margolf and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2003-12-25 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diane Margolf looks at the Paris Chambre de l’Edit in this well-researched study about the special royal law court that adjudicated disputes between French Huguenots and the Catholics. Using archival records of the court’s criminal cases, Margolf analyzes the connections to three major issues in early modern French and European history: religious conflict and coexistence, the growing claims of the French crown to define and maintain order, and competing concepts of community and identity in the French state and society. Based on previously unexplored archival materials, Margolf examines the court through a cultural lens and offers portraits of ordinary men and women who were litigants before the court, and the magistrates who heard their cases.

Book Huguenot Refugees in Colonial New York

Download or read book Huguenot Refugees in Colonial New York written by Paula Wheeler Carlo and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing comparisons with the broader Huguenot diaspora, this book reassesses the prevailing view that Huguenots in North America quickly conformed to Anglicanism and abandoned the French language and other distinctive characteristics in order to assimilate into Anglo-American culture. Although the standard interpretation may still be true for Huguenots in heterogeneous urban communities, it should be modified for Huguenots in ethnically and religiously homogeneous rural settlements like New Paltz and New Rochelle, where the process was more akin to a gradual acculturation.

Book History of the Huguenot Emigration to America

Download or read book History of the Huguenot Emigration to America written by Charles W. Baird and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This extensively-researched two-volume series offers a detailed account of "the coming of the persecuted Protestants of France to the New World, and their establishment, particularly in the seaboard provinces [New England] now comprehended within the United States....The volumes now submitted to the public treat first of these antecedent movements, and then take up the narrative of the events that led to the more considerable and more effective emigration, in the latter years of the seventeenth century." This very readable narrative history is rich with details about persons, places and events. Much of the information preserved on these pages was gleaned from unpublished documents found in the United States, France and England: "Manuscripts in the possession of the descendants of refugees; memorials, petitions, wills, and other papers on file in public offices;" as well as numerous church records and other original documents. Volume I includes: Attempted Settlements in Brazil and Florida, Under the Edict: Acadia and Canada, New Netherland, The Antilles, Approach of the Revocation, and The Revocation: Flight from La Rochelle and Aunis. Illustrations, maps, and an appendix enhance the text. An index to full-names, places and subjects for both volumes is contained in Volume II.

Book Germany and the French Wars of Religion  1560 1572

Download or read book Germany and the French Wars of Religion 1560 1572 written by Jonas van Tol and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-11-05 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The course of the French Wars of Religion, commonly portrayed as a series of civil wars, was profoundly shaped by foreign actors. Many German Protestants in particular felt compelled to intervene. In Germany and the French Wars of Religion, 1560-1572 Jonas van Tol examines how Protestant German audiences understood the conflict in France and why they deemed intervention necessary. He demonstrates that conflicting stories about the violence in France fused with local religious debates and news from across Europe leading to a surprising range of interpretations of the nature of the French Wars of Religion. As a consequence, German Lutherans found themselves on opposing sides on the battlefields of France.
