Abstract [en]

Whereas previous generations of historians had been relatively tolerant towards some of the expressions of medieval Christianity, this chapter reveals how an emphasis on common-sense rationality led to increasingly hostile views of the 'Catholic past' among late seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Swedish historians. By means of close analysis of the era's principal historical works, the chapter demonstrates how Swedish authors managed to simultaneously criticize a competing faith system and mark their own time as civilized and rational. The chapter concludes that the Enlightenment had a bigger impact than the Reformation with regard to the re-evaluation of Sweden's Catholic past.
