Recherches sur Jean Grolier, sur sa vie et sa bibliothèque, suivies d'un Catalogue des livres qui lui ont appartenus /
:
The Catalogue (pp. 179-320), extensively describing 349 items ( 13 of which are manuscripts) gives a masterly reconstruction of Grolier's Library, which ranks among the most precious collections of books of all times. The owner (1479-1565) is rightly considered as the founding father of French bibliography.

War, Revolt and Sacred Space : Cambrai and the Southern Netherlands, 1566-c.1621 /
:
Churches and sacred spaces were devastated by warfare and confessional violence in the southern Netherlands during the late sixteenth century. This monograph explores how these churches were rebuilt, the material culture of worship repaired or replaced, and their sanctity restored. Work began in the immediate aftermath of the iconoclasm and rebellion of 1566-67 and continued into the early seventeenth century. How this was achieved and the multiple agents involved is analysed across the Francophone dioceses of the ecclesiastical province of Cambrai. This restoration coincided with the reassertion and revitalisation of Catholic devotion embodied in the Tridentine decrees. Drawing on extensive archival research, as well as buildings, church furnishings and religious art, this monograph provides an alternative perspective on political upheaval and Catholic renewal in the southern Netherlands under Philip II of Spain and the Archdukes Albert and Isabella.

The Elizabethan Catholic Underground : Clandestine Printing and Scribal Subversion in the English Counter-Reformation /
:
This is the first book-length study dedicated entirely to the clandestine print and scribal culture of members of the international Elizabethan Catholic underground, c. 1558-1603. Close studies offer fresh material textual evidence of a truly cosmopolitan, polyglot, and trans-European community of domestic and exiled English Catholics, moving well beyond the British Isles to the Dutch Low Countries, France, Poland, Spain, and Italy. Explorations of book smuggling networks, clandestine printers, secret Catholic libraries, illicit scribal publications, international patronage and finance, and press censorship combine in this volume to shed new light on an otherwise shadowy, often subversive, but still relatively understudied early modern book culture.
