The Centre for the Study of the Renaissance at the University of Warwick will run a 9-week evening course on the theme of ‘Religion in Europe between the late medieval period and the Reformation'. Classes will take place at the University, on Friday evenings, 7-9pm, starting on 24^th April 2020, in room H0.58 (Ground floor Humanities Building). The cost of the course is £125pp, numbers will be limited to around 16, and a deposit will eventually be required to secure a place. A little more insight into the theme can be found below:

Religion played a very central role in the social, economic, cultural and political life of all groups of people in late medieval and Renaissance Europe. This is a period that saw immense change and conflict, which influenced all areas of life. We will look at how these transformations affected the lives of people from various groups in society, from the parish level to the highest political circles. The course will explore the features of the medieval religious landscape and proceed to investigate the nature of the changes brought by the Reformation, also considering religious deviance.

Confirmed timetable is below.
