I. Historical approaches -- pt. II. Approaches from philosophy and theology. 330 $a"In recent years religion has resurfaced amongst academics, in many ways replacing class as the key to understanding Europe's historical development. This has resulted in an explosion of studies revisiting issues of region, confessional violence and holy war during the early modern period. But the interpretation of the European wars of religion still remains constrained by national boundaries, tied into the process of state building as well as nation building. In order to untangle this complex web and more thoroughly interrogate these concepts and assumptions, this volume focusses on terms repeatedly used and misused in public debates such as 'religious violence' and 'holy warfare' within the context of military conflicts labelled 'religious wars'. The chapters not only focus on the role of religion, but also on the emerging state as a driver of the escalation of violence in the age of religious war"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aReligion and politics$zEurope$xHistory 606 $aViolence$xReligious aspects$xChristianity 606 $aWar$xReligious aspects$xChristianity 615 0$aReligion and politics$xHistory. 615 0$aViolence$xReligious aspects$xChristianity. 615 0$aWar$xReligious aspects$xChristianity. 676 $a201/.7273094 701 $aPalaver$b Wolfgang$f1958-$0993242 701 $aRegensburger$b Dietmar$0993243 701 $aRudolph$b Harriet$0993244 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910155194803321 996 $aThe European wars of religion$92274313 997 $aUNINA
