A Companion to the Catholic Enlightenment in Europe
This book offers the first comprehensive overview of the Catholic Enlightenment in Europe. It surveys the diversity of views about the structure and nature of the movement, pointing toward the possibilities for further research. The volume presents a series of comprehensive treatments on the process and interpretation of Catholic Enlightenment in France, Spain, Portugal, Poland, the Holy Roman Empire, Malta, Italy and the Habsburg territories. An introductory overview explores the varied meanings of Catholic Enlightenment and situates them in a series of intellectual and social contexts. The topics covered in this book are crucial for a proper understanding of the role and place not only of Catholicism in the eighteenth century, but also for the social and religious history of modern Europe. Contributors include: Jeffrey D. Burson, Richard Butterwick, Frans Ciappara, Harm Klueting, Ulrich L. Lehner, Michael Printy, Mario Rosa, Evergton Sales Souza, and Andrea J. Smidt.

Reform Catholicism and the International Suppression of the Jesuits in Enlightenment Europe
An investigation into the role of Reform Catholicism in the international suppression of the Jesuits in 1773†‹ The Jesuits devoted themselves to preaching the word of God, administering the sacraments, and spreading the faith by missions in both Europe and newly discovered lands abroad. But, in 1773, under intense pressure from the monarchs of Europe, the papacy suppressed the Society of Jesus, an act that reverberated from Europe to the Americas and Southeast Asia. In this scholarly history, Dale Van Kley argues that Reform Catholicism, not a secular Enlightenment, provided the justification for Catholic kings to suppress a society instituted by the papacy. Spanning the years from the mid†‘sixteenth century to the onset of the French Revolution, and the Jesuit presence from China to Brazil, this is the only single volume in English to make coherent sense of the series of expulsions that add up to what was arguably the most important religious event in Europe of the time, resulting in the secularization of tens of thousands of Jesuits.

Coração fiel aos pés de seu príncipe: estratégias de poder de validos, privados e favoritos luso-brasileiros (1807-1822)
Sobre o povo português de 2023 parece imperar a frase de Não se governa, nem se deixa governar, proferida há dois mil anos – dizem – por Júlio César. Esse costuma ser um lugar- comum que nós, portugueses, gostamos de utilizar, para nos rebaixarmos perante nós próprios. Mas, de facto, o que conhecemos sobre o nosso passado não tão longínquo, como o dos anos de 1807 a 1822, os da transferência da corte para o Brasil e do seu regresso a Portugal? Relativamente pouco, conforme se percebe por mais este livro de Daniel Estudante Protásio, publicado pela Chiado Books. Nas suas páginas, ficamos a saber quase tudo sobre o Godoy português (o 1.o visconde de Vila Nova da Rainha), o 1...
