Abstract

Today, nobody would consider George L. Mosse as a historian of Christianity. He is well known primarily for his works on the history of fascism, nationalism, and racism. However, not only in the first phase of his career, as a scholar of early modern Europe, he was precisely a historian of Christianity, but his contribution to the understanding of Christian experiences and movements in the last centuries, albeit little known, has continued to be extremely relevant. So the article, This article, after an examination of the meaning of ‘thought’ in Mosse’s work and a reflection about Mosse’s approach to religion, and especially to Christianity, analyses the main results of his researches on the subject and their development and proposes a final appraisal of his legacy in this field of research.
