Abstract: Protestantism during the early modern period is still predominantly presented as a European story. Advancing a novel framework to understand the nature and impact ofthe Protestant Reformations, this volume brings together leading scholars to integrate global Protestant experiences into accounts of the early modern world created by the Reformations. It seeks to compare Protestant concepts and practices with other world religions, to chart colonial politics and encounters, and to ask how resulting ideas and identities were negotiated by Europeans at the time. Through its wide geographical and chronological scope, Protestant Empires advances a new way of understanding the Protestant Reformations. Showcasing selective model approaches on how to think anew and pointing the way towards multi-national and connected accounts of the period, this volume demonstrates how global interactions and their effect on Europe have played a crucial role in the history of the “long Reformation” in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
