Reformation Movements in the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries explores how Protestant women across Europe engaged with the Bible, rather than prioritizing how male Reformers viewed women.

Although many available sources derive from and address elite women, the articles collected here show that women of various social statuses engaged with scripture and with their faith.
