SUMMARY:Conscience and Coercion: The Early Protestants of Amiens\, 1530-1650; Traces of Their Lives
DESCRIPTION:Explore acts of resistance and official persecution of French Protestants during the early Reformation. This new exhibit from the research of Dr. David Rosenberg features the signatures of over 100 Protestants of Amiens\, France\, as well as the records of their official targeting for heresy. \n\n\n\nThis research demonstrates how French political and religious leaders surveilled and persecuted members of this new minority\, while also illuminating the experiences of the Protestants themselves\, including interrogations\, exile\, execution\, and book burnings\, as well as acts of resistance through civil disobedience.  \n\n\n\nThis exhibit will be on display in the 2nd Floor Lincoln Gallery from August 27 through September 25 during regular Library hours. Registration is not required. Learn more about this project at www.protestantsofamiens.com. \n\n\n\nDr. David Rosenberg received a Ph.D. in European History from Yale University with a dissertation on the Protestant movement in Amiens in the 16th century\, focusing on the attitudes of weavers and wool combers towards Protestantism. The exhibit “Conscience and Coercion” represents over fifty years of archival research on this topic. In 2013 Dr. Rosenberg was named a Knight in the Order of Arts and Letters by the French government\, and he received the Medal of the City of Amiens in 2023 for his contributions to the history and memory of that region.
