Smith, Jeffrey Chipps, 1951-
Sensuous worship : Jesuits and the art of the early Catholic Reformation in Germany / Jeffrey Chipps Smith.
Princeton : Princeton University Press, ©2002.
ix, 261 pages : illustrations, map ; 29 cm
"When the Jesuits entered Germany in the 1540s, the Protestant Reformation was on the verge of obliterating a Catholic Church already in tatters. Yet the seemingly imminent collapse never happened, and Catholicism recovered dramatically. This extensively illustrated book explores a key reason why German Catholicism survived and flourished. It provides the first comprehensive treatment of the Jesuits' poorly understood but remarkable revitalization of German religious art and culture - an accomplishment that would guide the direction of both religious life and subsequent German Baroque art."--Cover.
