Posted on 18 March 2013

Peter Mazur described the personal histories of some unusual converts, who negotiated (more or less successfully!) the changing religious landscape of Italy and its neighbours, in a lecture on 'Improbable Lives: a One-Eyed Soldier, a Dervish, and other Converts in Early Modern Rome'.
