Fear In Early Modern Society by William G. Naphy
A compact, interdisciplinary study that examines how fear shaped everyday life, politics and culture in early modern Europe, tracing how anxieties about plague, war, witchcraft, crime and social disorder influenced popular behavior, elite policy and community responses; through case studies and thematic essays it shows fear as both a tool of social control and a catalyst for resistance, highlighting changing mentalities, rituals, and institutions that sought to manage uncertainty and danger.
