Oxford History of Modern German Theology
From the closing decades of the eighteenth century, German theology has been a major intellectual force within modern western thought, closely connected to important developments in idealism, romanticism, historicism, phenomenology, and hermeneutics. Despite its influential legacy, however, no recent attempts have sought to offer an overview of its history and development. Oxford History of Modern German Theology, Vol. I: 1781-1848, the first of a three-volume series, provides the most comprehensive multi-authored overview of German theology from the period from 1781-1848. Kaplan and Vander Schel cover categories frequently omitted from earlier overviews of the time period, such as the place...
The Book Worlds of East Asia and Europe, 1450–1850
This volume provides the first comparative survey of the relations between the two most active book worlds in Eurasia between 1450 and 1850. Prominent scholars in book history explore different approaches to publishing, printing, and book culture. They discuss the extent of technology transfer and book distribution between the two regions and show how much book historians of East Asia and Europe can learn from one another by raising new questions, exploring remarkable similarities and differences in these regions’ production, distribution, and consumption of books. The chapters in turn show different ways of writing transnational comparative history. Whereas recent problems confronting res...
The French Revolution and Religion in Global Perspective
This volume examines the French Revolution’s relationship with and impact on religious communities and religion in a transnational perspective. It challenges the traditional secular narrative of the French Revolution, exploring religious experience and representation during the Revolution, as well as the religious legacies that spanned from the eighteenth century to the present. Contributors explore the myriad ways that individuals, communities, and nation-states reshaped religion in France, Europe, the Atlantic Ocean, and around the world.
Hitler's Priests
Shaken by military defeat and economic depression after War World I, Germans sought to restore their nation's dignity and power. In this context the National Socialist Party, with its promise of a revivified Germany, drew supporters. Among the most zealous were a number of Catholic clergymen known as "brown priests" who volunteered as Nazi propagandists. In this insightful study, Spicer unearths a dark subchapter in Roman Catholic history, introduces the principal clergymen who participated in the Nazi movement, examines their motives, details their advocacy of National Socialism, and explores the consequences of their political activism. Some brown priests, particularly war veterans, advoca...

Die S„kularisation in Bayern im Jahr 1803: Von der zeitgen”ssischen Wahrnehmung bis in die Gegenwart
Die S„kularisation von 1803 war ein Prozess mit dauerhaften Folgen, die selbst ber 200 Jahre sp„ter noch immer kontrovers diskutiert werden. Durch den Reichsdeputationshauptschluss vom 25. Februar 1803, der Ende April des Jahres durch kaiserliche Ratifikation in Kraft trat, begann die revolution„re Umgestaltung der traditionellen, territorialen und politischen Strukturen. Die Paragraphen 35 und 36 bildeten die rechtliche Grundlage fr die ?in Rastatt und Lun‚ville getroffenen Vorentscheidungen? fr die bis dahin gr”áte territoriale Umw„lzung in Deutschland. 112 rechtsrheinische Reichsst„nde, 19 Reichsbistmer, 44 Reichsabteien, 41 Reichsst„dte, viele hundert lands„ssi...
