Focusing on the essence of Christianity rather than the Church as an institution, the book delves into the beliefs and lifestyles of Christian communities during the Reformation. It systematically examines pre-Reformation Christianity, highlighting the forces that challenged its foundations. The author contrasts the emerging Protestant and Catholic regimes, analyzing their characteristics and the consequences of the disintegration of traditional beliefs, ultimately offering a fresh perspective on Western Christianity during this pivotal period.
