The 1697 Peace of Rijswijk dashed Huguenot hopes of a return to their homeland. The refugees of the diaspora found permanent places of refuge in England, the Netherlands, and Hanover, becoming a Protestant International. In Hanover the elites military refugees exerted considerable influence over the Elector, Georg Ludwig (future King George I), and Huguenot religious and military personnel played a neglected part in the narrative of succession. Among the Huguenot names that dominate the narrative are those of Henri Massue de Ruvigny (better known as the Earl of Galway) and Jean de Robéthon; the first was a universally respected soldier, the latter a controversial diplomat and politician.Less

The chapter makes a case for cosmopolitanism in the development of Pietism, a movement of the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries that put the Puritans in touch with what was called the Protestant International. Unlike more conventional readings of the “internationalism” of Pietism, which focus on the networks the Puritans established with coreligionists across the world, this chapter links Pietism to the creation of a cosmopolitan language, which can be seen most explicitly in Cotton Mather’s version of late seventeenth-century Pietism.Less
