Cunegonde's Kidnapping: A Story of Religious Conflict in the Age of Enlightenment In the small, remote village of [Village Name] nestled on the Dutch-German border, a young Catholic woman named Cunegonde made a bold and desperate move to prevent a baby from being baptized in a Protestant church. Her actions sparked a cycle of violence that erupted into a kind of religious war, contradicting our current understanding of the Age of Enlightenment, famous for its religious tolerance. This hitherto unknown conflict, as told in vivid detail by award-winning historian Benjamin J. Kaplan, presents a microhistorical study of religious conflict and toleration in early modern Europe. The story begins in 1762, when Cunegonde, a devout Catholic, kidnapped a baby born to a Protestant family, hoping to prevent the child from being baptized in a Protestant church.
