These 2005 essays afford parallel views of England and Europe, Tsarist Russia, and Ming China, and show a spectrum of possibilities for what early modern governments tried to achieve by regulating religious life, and for how religious communities evolved in new directions, in keeping with or in spite of official injunctions.
