Infos

The way in which the world's religions are intertwined in the dynamics of global development has become obvious in the twenty-first century. This also applies to Christianity. In view of the fact that its historiography is still predominantly regional or national, however, little is known about Christianity's historical process of development to become a religion that is globally active and plurally differentiated.
The first volume takes up this challenge by presenting a comprehensive, interdenominational and interdisciplinary history of global Christianity from the fifteenth to the eighteenth century, for the first time in German-speaking countries. Renowned theologians and (church) historians clarify the turning-points in the Early Modern period that set the course for the global spread and fascinating plurality of modern Christianity.
