More about the book

Exploring the religious dynamics of 17th-century Metz, the book delves into the tensions and occasional collaborations among Catholics, Protestants, and Jews. Miskimin reveals how the French Crown exploited these religious conflicts to advance its centralizing political agenda. While local leaders resisted ideological coexistence, the growing daily interactions among the faiths—despite their often-hostile nature—challenged established religious norms and created a more intricate social fabric within the city.
