Book Description

Women and Religion in Old and New Worlds examines an increasingly popular and dynamic topic of women and religion in the early modern period. This innovative collection of essays is a comparative study of women's religious experiences of four European countries--France, Spain, England, and The Netherlands--and their reach to their respective colonies--Quebec, Peru, New Netherlands (New York), and New England. This important book brilliantly illustrate the Atlantic World perspective on how gender and religion are related to one another.

Women and Religion the Old and New Worlds is a welcome addition to the history of gender and organized religion.
