From lower cover: This volume brings together scholars from France and from many of the countries of the Huguenot Refuge to examine the situation of French Protestants before and after the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes, in France and in the countries to which many of them fled, most notably in the great exodus of the years around the Edict of Fontainebleau in 1685. Covering a period from the end of the sixteenth to the beginning of the nineteenth century, the volume examines aspects of life in France, from the creation of a Huguenot sense of cultural identity and the debate on church unit to customs associated with death and burial, but its primary focus is on departure from France and its consequences -- both before and after the Revocation. It offers insights into the experience of individuals and groups, from aristocrats such as Henri de Ruvigny, depute general and later Earl of Galway or Eleonore dOlbreause, grandmother of George II of England, to students and converted Catholic priests, and from businessmen choosing their destination for economic as well as religious reasons, to women and children moving across European frontiers in search of a permanent refuge and the group attempting to settle on a remote island in the Indian Ocean. Other essays analyse tensions and difficulties within the various refuges, from the activities of the well-placed French government spy in the Dutch refuge to the tensions created in the Huguenot community in London by the activities of the Camisard prophets. Several chapters examine the contribution of Huguenots to the political, religious, economic and intellectual life of the countries in which they settled. The evolution of the sense of identity of the refugees is also assessed, through an examination of the interaction between the French community in Berlin and the invading Napoleonic army and through consideration of a series of English and Irish family histories written during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries., Sussex Academic Press, (2013)., 2013, 0, Hurst and Blackett, 1877.
