Abstract

En décembre 2019, puis au cours de l'année 2020, en mars, juste avant le début de la pandémie, puis en août, enfin en décembre, Max Engammare a eu la chance insigne, mais travaillée, de découvrir quatre livres latins de Calvin, annotés par lui et par deux secrétaires, dont son frère Antoine : l'Institution de la religion chrétienne (1559), le commentaire sur les Psaumes (1557), la seconde version du commentaire sur Esaïe (1559) et le commentaire des Épîtres pauliniennes (1556). À côté de son travail chez Droz, il a donc mené l'enquête, retrouvé les premiers acheteurs, dont Jean Crespin, puis entrepris la rédaction de ce livre. Le lecteur découvrira, pour la première fois, comment Calvin travaillait, comment il corrigeait ses livres essentiels, pour laisser à la postérité, dans un geste humaniste généralisé – et l'on pense à Érasme ou à Montaigne et à bien d'autres – une œuvre affermie et lissée, débarrassée quasi de toute scorie. Quelques inflexions de sa pensée théologiques et quelques éclaircissements bienvenus se laissent saisir. On entre ainsi dans ce que l'auteur appelle la Fabrique Calvin, car le Réformateur a mis en place trois ateliers de rédaction et des stratégies pour que rien de son activité intellectuelle et spirituelle ne se perde. Toutes les annotations importantes sont données et traduites, alors que les 104 annotations dans son exemplaire de la dernière version latine de l'Institution de la religion chrétienne sont notées, annotées et traduites en annexe.

Abstract

Refusing to Kiss the Slipper re-examines the Reformation in francophone Europe, presenting for the first time the perspective of John Calvin’s evangelical enemies. This book brings together a cast of Calvin’s opponents from various French-speaking territories to show that opposition to Calvinism was stronger and better organized than has ever before been recognized. It examines individual opponents, such as Pierre Caroli, Jerome Bolsec, Sebastian Castellio, Charles Du Moulin, and Jean Morély, but more importantly, it explores the anti-Calvinist networks that developed around such individuals. Each group had its own origins and agenda, but all agreed that Calvin’s claim to absolute religious authority too closely echoed the religious sovereignty of the pope. These oft-neglected opponents refused to offer such obeisance-to kiss the papal slipper-arguing instead for open discussion of controversial doctrines. This book also shows that the challenge posed by these groups shaped the way the Calvinists themselves developed their reform strategies. The book demonstrates that the breadth and strength of the anti-Calvinist networks requires us to abandon the traditional assumption that Huguenots and other francophone Protestants were universally Calvinist

Abstract

"The extra Calvinisticum, that the eternal Son maintains his existence beyond the flesh during his earthly ministry and perpetually, divided the Lutheran and Reformed traditions during the Reformation. This book explores the emergence and development of the extra Calvinisticum in the Reformed tradition by tracing its exposition from Ulrich Zwingli to early Reformed orthodoxy. Rather than being an ancillary issue, the questions surrounding the extra Calvinisticum were a determinative factor in the differentiation of Magisterial Protestantism into rival confessions. Reformed theologians maintained this doctrine in order to preserve the integrity of both Christ's divine and human natures as the mediator between God and humanity. This rationale remained consistent across this period with increasing elaboration and sophistication to meet the challenges levelled against the doctrine in Lutheran polemics. The study begins with Zwingli's early use of the extra Calvinisticum in the Eucharistic controversy with Martin Luther and especially as the alternative to Luther's doctrine of the ubiquity of Christ's human body. Over time, Reformed theologians, such as Peter Martyr Vermigli and Antione de Chandieu, articulated the extra Calvinisticum with increasing rigor by incorporating conciliar christology, the church fathers, and scholastic methodology to address the polemical needs of engagement with Lutheranism. The book illustrates the development of christological doctrine by Reformed theologians offering a coherent historical narrative of Reformed christology from its emergence into the period of confessionalization. The extra Calvinisticum was interconnected to broader concerns affecting concepts of the union of Christ's natures, the communication of attributes, and the understanding of heaven"--

Abstract

This volume offers an interdisciplinary study of Reformed sanctification and human development, providing the foundation for a constructive account of Christian moral formation that is attentive both to divine grace and to the significance of natural, embodied processes. Angela Carpenter's argument also addresses the impressions that such theologies give; namely either solitude in the face of adversity, or sheer passivity. Through careful examination of the doctrine of sanctification in three Reformed theologians -- John Calvin, John Owen and Horace Bushnell--Carpenter argues that human responsiveness in the context of fellowship with the triune God provides a basic framework for a theological account of moral transformation. Her relational approach brings together divine and human agency in a dynamic process where both are indispensable. Supplying an account of moral formation located within Christian salvation, while also being attentive to embodied human nature and the sciences, this book is vital to all those interested in spiritual formation and the human capacity for love.
