  • Ablass und Reformation

    Philip M SoergelARTICLEGerman History2017

    Berndt Hamm’s most recent book has a twofold purpose. On the one hand, it is a primer for university students interested in mastering the history of the indulgence and its place within the medieval system of penance. On the other, this text aims to set forth a bold new interpretation of the Reformation and its continuities and discontinuities with late medieval theology and praxis. Here the indulgence and Luther’s Reformation-era breakthroughs of…

  • Death and a Maiden

    Open AccessPhilip M SoergelARTICLEThe English Historical Review2014

    David Myers’s new book is fashioned from all the elements of a good mystery: a poor serving-girl taken advantage of by a wealthy son, a missing infant’s corpse, a daring defence attorney, and a city’s justice machine anxious to avoid external interference and any questioning of its authority. This is not Law and Order, but instead the surprisingly well-documented case of Margarethe Schmidt, a sixteen-year-old girl accused and doggedly prosecuted …

  • Miracles and the Protestant Imagination

    Philip M SoergelBOOKMiracles and the Protestant…2012

    This study examines the uses of miracles in Protestant wonder books in the century after the outbreak of the Reformation. The wonder book was a new genre that emerged in the troubled years after Martin Luther’s death and the outbreak of religious wars in 1546. Originally conceived as a kind of apocalyptic text intended to interpret the “signs of the times” during this uncertain period, wonder books were filled with accounts of celestial visions, …

  • Susan C. Karant-Nunn. The Reformation of Feeling

    Philip M SoergelARTICLEThe American Historical Review2012

    Although the subdiscipline of the history of emotions is a fairly recent development, judgments about the ways in which religion enlisted, spoke to, and exploited the human emotions have long played a role in the questions scholars have asked about late medieval and early modern Christianity. Much of this work has often come to distinctly negative conclusions. In Jacques Toussaert's Le sentiment religieux en Flandres à la fin du Moyen Age (1963),…

  • The Counter-Reformation in the Villages

  • Wondrous in His Saints

    Philip M SoergelBOOKWondrous in His Saints1994

    At the close of the sixteenth century, despite Protestant attempts to discourage popular devotion to saints and shrines, the Roman Church in Bavaria initiated a propagandistic campaign through the publishing of pilgrimage books and pamphlets. Philip Soergel's cogent exploration of this little-known pilgrimage literature yields a vivid portrait of religion before, during, and after the Reformation and Counter-Reformation. These "advertisements," c…
