Brill - Exiles in a Global City: The Irish and Early Modern Rome

Exiles in a Global City: The Irish and Early Modern Rome, 1609-1783 offers a deep look into the lives of Irish migrants living in Rome during the early modern period. This scholarly work examines how these individuals expressed their cultural identities while navigating large-scale Spanish and Roman institutions. Part of the Catholic Christendom (1300-1700) series, this book provides a fresh perspective by utilizing historical sources that have not been previously used by Irish historians. It explores the complex relationship between migrant populations and the global religious and political structures of the time. For students of European history, Irish studies, or the history of Rome, this text provides essential context regarding migration and identity within a globalized urban setting.
