William Doyle on Jansenism, September 1, 2007
This review is from: Jansenism: Catholic Resistance to Authority from the Reformation to the French Revolution (Studies in European History) (Paperback)
This is an excellent short but detailed introduction to Jansenism. In only 90 pages of narrative Doyle deals with the various manifestations of Jansenism in Europe, not merely France and the Low Countries, with many gems of detail not easily found elsewhere, such as biographical data on French Appellant Bishops. First class and highly recommended, and an encouragement to further research.
