520    The Tactics of Toleration examines the preconditions and 
       limits of toleration during an age in which Europe was 
       sharply divided along religious lines. During the Age of 
       Religious Wars, refugee communities in borderland towns 
       like the Rhineland cityof Wesel were remarkably 
       religiously diverse and culturally heterogeneous places. 
       Examining religious life from the perspective of 
       Calvinists, Lutherans, Mennonites, and Catholics, this 
       book examines how residents dealt with pluralism during an
       age of deep religious conflict and intolerance. Based on 
       sources that range from theological treatises to financial
       records and from marriage registries to testimonies before
       secular and ecclesiastical courts, this project offers new
       insights into the strategies that ordinary people 
       developed for managing religious pluralism during the Age 
       of Religious Wars. Historians have tended to emphasize the
       ways in which people of different faiths created and 
       reinforced religious differences in the generations after 
       the Reformation's break-up of Christianity, usually in 
       terms of long-term historical narratives associated with 
       modernization, including state building, 
       confessionalization, and the subsequent rise of religious 
       toleration after a century of religious wars. In contrast,
       Jesse Spohnholz demonstrates that although this was a time
       when Christians were engaged in a series of brutal 
       religious wars against one another, many were also 
       learning more immediate and short-term strategies to live 
       alongside one another. Thisbook considers these "tactics 
       for toleration" from the vantage point of religious 
       immigrants and their hosts, who learned to coexist despite
       differences in language, culture, and religion. It demands
       that scholars reconsider toleration, not only as an 
       intellectual construct that emerged out of the 
       Enlightenment, but also as a dynamic set of short-term and
       often informal negotiations between ordinary people, 
       regulating the limits of acceptable and unacceptable 
       behavior.
