New open access book:

The Early Modern Dutch Press in an Age of Religious Persecution: The Making of Humanitarianism
(Oxford Univ. Press, Sept. 2023) [open access]
- "For victims of persecution, attracting international awareness of their plight is often a matter of life and death. This book uncovers how in seventeenth-century Europe, persecuted minorities first learned how to use the press as a weapon to combat religious persecution. To mobilize foreign audiences, they faced an acute dilemma: how to make people care about distant suffering? This study argues that by answering this question, they laid the foundations of a humanitarian culture in Europe." See also related post on The Conversation.
