Editorial Reviews

In this revisionist biography, Hudson shows how Cervini (1501-1555), long regarded as one of the most important ecclesiastical figures in the Tridentine reformation, profoundly influenced reform before, during, and after the Council of Trent. In the course of his reassessment, Hudon illuminates the politics and culture of the 16th century. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
