Abstract

This book studies the connections between the political reform of the Holy Roman Empire and the German lands around 1500 and the sixteenth-century religious reformations, both Protestant and Catholic. It argues that the character of the political changes (dispersed sovereignty, local autonomy) prevented both a general reformation of the Church before 1520 and a national reformation thereafter. The resulting settlement maintained the public peace through politically structured religious communities (confessions), thereby avoiding further religious strife and fixing the confessions into the Empire's constitution. The Germans' emergence into the modern era as a people having two national religions was the reformation's principal legacy to modern Germany.

Abstract

The Calvin year 2009 began on October 31, 2008 with a conference organized by the Institute for Reformation Research (Apeldoorn) on the topic Calvin: Saint or Sinner? A number of scholars dealt with the question of whether and how Calvin brought a renewal to theology, the church and society. This volume contains the papers held at this conference, which demonstrate the detailed and growing research on the reformer of Geneva. Since the contributions reflect the latest research in Calvin studies, the conclusions reached in many of the papers are surprising. Calvin was not a reformer in all respects in the original sense, as some would have wanted him to be. However on other subjects he definitely distanced himself from tradition and from his fellow reformers. All in all, this volume gives an overview of the many facets of John Calvin and his theology.

Abstract

Qu'y a-t-il de religieux dans les guerres de religion des XVIe-XVIIe siècles ? Guerres entre chrétiens et non croisades, guerres civiles dans lesquelles la frontière entre amis et ennemis ou entre soldats et simples sujets s'efface, conjonction dramatique d'émeutes urbaines, de révoltes paysannes, de soulèvements contre les nouvelles formes d'exercice du pouvoir et de massacres inouïs plus souvent qu'opérations militaires d'armées en bon ordre, elles brouillent les pistes, déjouent les interprétations trop simples, soulèvent d'innombrables questions. Pour en comprendre l'originalité profonde et le rôle décisif dans la naissance de l'Europe moderne, il faut donc croiser plusieurs analyses : une histoire comparée des guerres dans les différents territoires pour en saisir les spécificités nationales ou confessionnelles ; une étude des différents acteurs et des justifications qu'ils donnent à leur engagement dans la guerre ou dans la paix ; une description minutieuse, enfin, des formes particulières de la violence qui s'observe alors. C'est ce défi que ce livre entend relever en faisant le choix d'une perspective européenne et d'une documentation inédite, car au même titre que l'humanisme et la Renaissance, mais sur un tout autre registre, plus inquiétant, les affrontements religieux des XVIe-XVIIe siècles constituent peut-être le creuset dont est sortie l'Europe moderne.

Abstract

The Companion to John Wyclif contains eight substantial essays covering the central aspects of John Wyclif's life and thought. The volume's authors have drawn on an extensive amount of primary material, as well as the most recent secondary sources, so as to present a comprehensive picture of Wyclif in his times. Topics covered include a detailed life and career of Wyclif, and close analyses of his logic and metaphysics; doctrine of the Trinity and Christology; political views; Christian life and piety; sacraments; the Bible; and an examination of his medieval opponents. Experts and students alike will profit from these in-depth studies all of which provide a view of Wyclif in his late medieval context. For those not already familiar with Wyclif this volume will serve as an excellent introduction; and those with greater expertise will find fresh appraisals which may, in turn, lead to further research.

Abstract

This is the first book-length study of the influential cultural and religious exchanges which took place between England and Bohemia following Richard II's marriage to Anne of Bohemia in 1382. The ensuing growth in communication between the two kingdoms initially enabled new ideas of religion to flourish in both countries but eventually led the English authorities to suppress heresy. This exciting project has been made possible by the discovery of new manuscripts after the opening up of Czech archives over the past twenty years. It is the only study to analyze the Lollard-Hussite exchange with an eye to the new opportunities for international travel and correspondence to which the Great Schism gave rise, and examines how the use of propaganda and The Council of Constance brought an end to this communication by securing the condemnation of heretics such as John Wyclif.

Abstract

Le déroulement de la Réforme en France et en Italie présente en même temps des similitudes frappantes et des différences évidentes. Première rencontre consacrée aux comparaisons, aux contrastes et aux contacts entre ces deux mouvements de renouveau religieux, puissants, mais qui finalement échouent au moins partiellement, le colloque réuni à Rome les 27-20 octobre 2005 avait plusieurs objectifs : en premier lieu, étudier les rapports directs entre les individus et les événements dans ces deux pays, beaucoup plus importants que ce que beaucoup d’historiens avaient pu penser ; ensuite, favoriser la rencontre entre des méthodes et des questionnements historiographiques différents, qui doit conduire à de nouvelles voies de recherches pour chaque pays ; enfin, mener une comparaison systématique entre les deux courants pour éclairer des thématiques et des problèmes majeurs jusqu’ici rarement abordés qui suscitent de nouvelles réflexions problématiques plus larges sur les deux Réformes.

Abstract

This work offers a series of linked studies of European print culture in the sixteenth century, focusing particularly on France and the regional, provincial experience of printing France, in the sixteenth century, was one of the great centres of the European publishing industry. But in the second half of the century the established dominance of Paris and Lyon was increasingly challenged by other new printing centres, stimulated in part by the religious and political crisis of the French Wars of Religion. Drawing on the data collected by the St Andrews French book project, the author reconstructs the enigmatic history of a number of previously unstudied printers. The focus throughout is on popular print, and the growth of mass market for news, entertainment and religious instruction. Customers interested in this title may also be interested in French Vernacular Books , edited by Andrew Pettegree, Malcolm Walsby and Alexander Wilkinson.
