Reviews

The publication in English of A cloister on trial at a time when the quincentenary of the Reformation is being celebrated brings one of the best examples of Hungarian microhistory within easy reach of the interested general reader in Europe and beyond. - ISTVAN SZIJARTO, EOETVOES UNIVERSITY, HUNGARY It constitues a very welcome addition to the growing literature that spans the late medieval and the early modern period, investigating continuities, and also provides a wonderful combination of microhistorical research with a macrohistorical questioning of the evidence. - NORA BEREND, UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE, UNITED KINGDOM
