About this book

"Friendship is a subject whose time has come. This book engages with contemporary interests in the making of identity, and demonstrates the workings of religious idioms of amity, charity and love in the making of friendship among early modern people. It will be of interest to all those involved in history and literature opening up the private as well as public lives of early modern people."--Jacket.
