- Title
Making Italy Anglican: Why the Book of Common Prayer was Translated into Italian.
- Authors
Davies, Eloise
- Abstract
The article discusses the translation of the Book of Common Prayer into Italian and the efforts of English evangelism in Italy from the seventeenth to the nineteenth century. The author, Stefano Villani, argues that despite the ultimate failure of these efforts, they are still significant and worthy of historical attention. Villani's research draws on a wide range of sources and introduces previously overlooked translators and cultural brokers. The article highlights the innovative and comprehensive nature of Villani's work, making it valuable for historians of Anglican evangelism.
