This scholarly work explores the metaphysical foundations and political order within the hierarchical society of early modern Europe, focusing on the roles of curses and oaths as expressions of sacred and social governance. Contributors examine the practical and symbolic significance of these acts in shaping communal and legal norms, as well as their broader cultural implications. The book discusses how religion and sacred rituals were intertwined with political authority, emphasizing the fear of divine retribution as a means of enforcing societal order. It is intended for an academic audience, particularly historians and researchers interested in the intersection of religion, governance, and social practices in pre-modern Europe.
