Abstract
The article discusses the perspectives of the studies focused on the materiality of the religious culture of the English Catholics (16th — 17th centuries). The study is focused on material “traces” of Catholic culture in the shared sacred space of parish, on the spaces, which had been re-interpreted as sacred — landscapes and private houses, and on a variety of sacral objects: liturgical vessels and vestments, relics of saints, and objects related to devotional practices (prayer). So far, research have been based on written sources, both documents and narratives, while material objects have only been studied sporadically. Now that new museums and Catholic Church archives are open to the public and to the scholars, a new systematic study of material sources of Catholic religious history has become possible, in connection to textual ones.
