Contents:

The Reformation and the Diocese of Geneva -- Understanding boundaries : landscape of Catholic reform -- Winning converts : the mission in the Duchy of Chablais -- Shifting borders : Savoyards become French -- Cleaning houses : reform of the clergy -- Defining spaces : reform of the laity -- Reform ideals and reality.

Summary: Fehleison offers a rich and compelling account of the revitalization of religious conviction and devotion in the Catholic areas bordering the Reformed city-state of Geneva. Her analysis of the people, structures, and rituals associated with Catholic reform in the Diocese of Geneva is exceptional and accomplished. She carefully elucidates the gradual emergence of confessional identity and the "boundaries of faith" among both clergy and laity. In the process, the dynamics of early modern Catholicism emerge in vibrant and robust tones.ùRaymond A. Mentzer --Book Jacket.
