The Inner Life of Catholic Reform offers a longue durée overview of the sentiments and spiritual ideas of the 250-year long time span from the ending of the Council of Trent to the Catholic Enlightenment, known as Catholic Reform.
The most cherished values of modernity are unthinkable without the eighteenth-century Enlightenment. Equal rights, the end of discrimination, the growth of democracy, and the idea of perpetual progress stem from thinkers who lived two hundred and fifty years ago, but whose ideas are as attractive as ever.
A revisionist account of the effects of the Enlightenment process on German Benedictines which contributes to a better understanding not only of monastic culture in Central Europe, but also of Catholic religious culture in general.
