Transnational French Studies
The contributors to Transnational French Studies situate this disciplinary subfield of Modern Languages in actively transnational frameworks.

The Politics of Religion in Early Modern France
Rich in detail and broad in scope, this majestic book is the first to reveal the interaction of politics and religion in France during the crucial years of the long seventeenth century. Joseph Bergin begins with the Wars of Religion, which proved to be longer and more violent in France than elsewhere in Europe and left a legacy of unresolved tensions between church and state with serious repercussions for each.
