Private and domestic devotion - how early modern men and women practised their religion when they were not in church - is a vital and largely hidden subject. This collection brings together an interdisciplinary range of scholars to discuss the lived experience of early modern religion in domestic settings in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Contributions analyse Bible-reading, the composition of prayers, the use of the psalms, the use of physical props for prayers, the pious interpretation of dreams, and the troubling question of what counted as religious solitude.
