The book examines how, amidst the development of Protestant denominations and the Catholic reception of the Council of Trent, a current of thought emerges for the first time that aspires to emancipate itself from religious guardianship and base itself exclusively on reason. A profound analysis of the birth of intellectual modernity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book focuses on the intellectual transformation of Christianity during the years from 1648 to 1763. The author examines, on one hand, the evolution of Protestant denominations and, on the other, how the Catholic world received and applied the reforms of the Council of Trent. However, its primary focus is to highlight the appearance of an unprecedented current of thought: a way of reflecting on the world and society that, for the first time, breaks free from religious guardianship and proposes thinking from the exclusive postulates of reason. This work thus traces the genesis of an intellectual universe constructed outside the margins of faith.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMain Topics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eEvolution of Christian thought between 1648 and 1763.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eDevelopment of Protestant denominations after the Peace of Westphalia.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eReception and application of the Tridentine reform in the Catholic world.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eEmancipation of rational thought from religious guardianship.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eBirth of intellectual modernity and its impact on theology and philosophy.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is recommended for historians of thought, students of theology and philosophy, and readers interested in the history of ideas and religion.
