Sacred Journeys in the Counter-Reformation examines long-distance pilgrimages to ancient, international shrines in northwestern Europe in the two centuries after Luther. In this region in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, saints’ cults and pilgrimage were frequently contested, more so than in the Mediterranean world. France, the Low Countries and the British Isles were places of disputation and hostility between Protestant and Catholic; sacred landscapes and journeys came under attack and in some regions, were outlawed by the state. Taking as case studies hugely popular medieval shrines such as Compostela, the Mont Saint-Michel and Lough Derg, the impact of Protestant criticism and Catholic revival on shrines, pilgrims’ motives and experiences is examined through life writings, devotional works and institutional records. The central focus is that of agency in religious change: what drove spiritual reform and what were its consequences for the ‘ordinary’ Catholic? This is explored through concepts of the religious self, holy materiality, and sacred space.

This book explores the theory and practice of authority during the later sixteenth century, in the religious culture and political institutions of the city of Nantes, where the religious wars traditionally came to an end with the great Edict of 1598. The Wars of Religion witnessed serious challenges to the authority of the last Valois kings of France. In an examination of the municipal and ecclesiastical records of Nantes, the author considers challenges to authority, and its renegotiation and reconstruction in the city, during the civil war period. After a detailed survey of the socio-economic structures of the mid-sixteenth-century city, successive chapters detail the growth of the Protestant church, assess the impact of sectarian conflict and the early counter reform movement on the Catholic Church, and evaluate the changing political relations of the city council with the urban population and with the French crown. Finally, the book focuses on the Catholic League rebellion against the king and the question of why Nantes held out against Henry IV longer than any other French city.

L’histoire de l’exercice du pouvoir municipal, au Moyen Âge et à l’époque moderne, est en plein renouvellement aujourd’hui. Ce colloque international (Rennes, 2010) a donc pour ambition de faire le point sur ce sujet, tout en ouvrant un certain nombre de pistes. Il le fait en se penchant sur la situation de villes françaises très variées, de la Bretagne à la Bourgogne, mais aussi de Dunkerque au Languedoc, depuis le XIIIe siècle jusqu’au règne de Louis XVI. Au cours des siècles, le pouvoir s’y exerce dans un cadre institutionnel diversifié, mais non sans traits communs, même s’il doit faire face à des conjonctures changeantes. On s’est attaché ici à observer comment les municipalités urbaines tentent de prendre en charges les intérêts – parfois différents, voire contradictoires – de leurs concitoyens, en lien avec d’autres autorités, aussi bien religieuses que politiques. Dans ce cadre, elles cherchent à la fois à incarner une dignité, à garantir des privilèges et à rendre des services, au quotidien et dans les moments de crise. Quatre angles d’attaque ont donc été retenus pour mieux cerner le pouvoir municipal en action : son fonctionnement tel que le révèle l’analyse des rapports entre les pouvoirs et leur mise en scène dans la ville ; les fonctions multiples exercées dans l’espace urbain ; la participation des citoyens à l’exercice de ce pouvoir ; les conflits suscités par son exercice, qu’il s’agisse de rivalités internes ou de confrontations avec d’autres instances de pouvoir. Tout au long de l’ouvrage, court donc la question des fondements de l’ordre dans la ville. L’édition des débats qui ont eu lieu lors du colloque fait ressortir convergences et divergences entre historiens et montre tout ce que peut apporter un échange scientifique à la réflexion collective.
