The second volume of The Oxford History of British & Irish Catholicism delves into the intricate tapestry of Catholic communities across England, Wales, Scotland, and Ireland during a period of profound upheaval and transformation. Spanning from the onset of the Civil Wars in 1641 to the Jacobite uprising of 1745, Catholics in these three kingdoms exhibited a diverse range of responses to the tumultuous events and tantalizing opportunities that unfolded. Within these communities, a constant struggle between dynamism and conservatism ensued, as they sought to re-define and re-imagine their identities in light of shifting relationships with the state, Protestantism, continental Europe, and the broader global landscape. This volume, with a conscious transnational orientation, departs from insular conceptualizations of Catholicism, emphasizing the interconnectedness with the European continent and beyond. The early chapters provide a broad overview of the experiences of Catholics during this period, tracing key events and significant developments from 1641 to 1745. Subsequent chapters delve into specific facets of Catholicism, unveiling a complex, rich, and varied history that encompasses empire and overseas missions, missionary activity, devotion, spirituality, trade, material culture, music, and architecture, among many other aspects. Through these detailed narratives, The Oxford History of British & Irish Catholicism offers a comprehensive and immersive exploration of the vibrant tapestry of Catholicism during this pivotal era.
