Inhaltsangabe

In the late eighteenth century, the French Republic evicted religious orders from their monasteries and forced them back into secular life. Regulars and the Secular Realm is a detailed account of the monks&; plight, chronicling the injustices perpetrated by government officials as well as the general antagonism towards the Catholic Church. As Mary Kathryn Robinson reveals, this fraught period of history offered a promise of &;liberty for all&;&;except Catholics. This vivid recounting of Benedictines and the French Revolution will interest scholars and history buffs alike.
