Exploring the private practice of religion in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, this collection features interdisciplinary insights into how early modern individuals engaged with their faith outside of church settings. Scholars examine various aspects such as Bible reading, prayer composition, the use of psalms, physical prayer aids, dream interpretations, and the complexities of religious solitude.
