It focuses on lay readings of the Bible, interrogating established historical, social, and confessional paradigms. It highlights the ongoing process of negotiation between the faithful congregation and ecclesiastical institutions, in both Protestant and Catholic countries. It shows how, even in the latter, where biblical translations were eventually forbidden, the laity drew upon the Bible as a source of ethical, cultural, and spiritual inspiration, contributing to the evolution of central aspects of modernity. Interpreting the Bible could indeed be a means of feeding critical perspectives and independent thought and behavior.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Contributors: Erminia Ardissino, Xavier Bisaro, �lise Boillet, Gordon Campbell, Jean-Pierre Cavaill�, Sabrina Corbellini, Fran�ois Dupuigrenet Desroussilles, Max Engammare, Wim Fran�ois, Ignacio J.
