This book follows those refugees who escaped to large cities and small towns to the east and southeast, up the Rhine River watershed. The comprehensive approach taken here examines these forced migrations from political, intellectual, social, cultural, religious, and linguistic perspectives, including using a large prosopographical database to track refugees' movements and experiences. It challenges scholars' claims that Reformed Protestants developed more doctrinal, volunteeristic, and well-organized churches particularly capable of surviving the challenges of persecution and exile. Instead, the authors show, refugees proved remarkably willing to compromise and adapt, even as they built new relationships with the unfamiliar people they met abroad. Based on an extensive collaboration between two senior scholars with different training and intellectual backgrounds and the team of researchers they led, this book challenges conventional wisdom about refugees and forced migrations in early modern Europe.Upon publication, this book is openly available in digital formats thanks to generous funding from the Dutch Research Council. 606 $aDutch$zHoly Roman Empire$xReligious life and customs 606 $aIntergroup relations$zHoly Roman Empire 606 $aReformed (Reformed Church)$zHoly Roman Empire 606 $aReligious refugees$zHoly Roman Empire 606 $aReligious refugees$zNetherlands 606 $aRELIGION / History$2bisacsh 610 $aAlexander Farnese. 610 $aAntwerp. 610 $aBrabant. 610 $aCalvinism. 610 $aCharles V. 610 $aEast Friesland. 610 $aElectoral Palatinate. 610 $aFlanders. 610 $aFriedrich III. 610 $aHeinrich Bullinger. 610 $aJan ?aski. 610 $aLutheran. 610 $aPeace of Augsburg. 610 $aPhilip II. 610 $aPhilip Melanchthon. 610 $aWilliam of Orange. 610 $aZeeland. 615 0$aDutch$xReligious life and customs. 615 0$aIntergroup relations 615 0$aReformed (Reformed Church) 615 0$aReligious refugees 615 0$aReligious refugees 615 7$aRELIGION / History. 676 $a284/.2492094309031 700 $aVeen$b Mirjam van, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01732783 702 $aSpohnholz$b Jesse, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910774596003321 996 $aDutch Reformed Protestants in the Holy Roman Empire, c.1550?1620$94147443 997 $aUNINA
