En 2014 un texte de Martin Luther (le 'De libertate christiana', 1520) portant des corrections manuscrites de Luther lui-même a été découvert à Sélestat. Il fait partie de la bibliothèque de Beatus Rhenanus (1485-1547). Ce livre contient aussi des corrections et des annotations manuscrites de Rhenanus. D'autres entrées font savoir que le texte a servi de modèle à une nouvelle édition à Bâle, chez l'imprimeur Adam Petri. Ces faits prouvent que Rhenanus fut en fait l'éditeur scientifique de ce traité fondamental de Luther. Cette découverte, qui est étudiée ici pour les annotations de Rhenanus, et l'exploitation d'autres données fournies par les auteurs de ce volume permettent de présenter un nouveau visage de Rhenanus partisan d'une réforme de l'Eglise. Grâce à ses connaissances, à ses publications et à son entourage, Rhenanus jouissait d'une autorité scientifique et morale très importante. Directeur de publications, conseiller scientifique ou représentant d'Erasme auprès de plusieurs grands imprimeurs du Rhin Supérieur, il avait accès aux moyens de communication les plus puissants. C'était un homme complexe. Son esprit à la fois ouvert et critique lui permettait d'innover en littérature et en histoire. Il pouvait s'enthousiasmer pour les idées des autres ou en imaginer de nouvelles lui-même. Pourtant, en homme discret et habituellement prudent, il agissait souvent sous le couvert de l'anonymat. Il se passionna pour une réforme de l'Eglise, mais choisit de taire une partie importante de ses interventions. Le contenu de ce livre lève le voile sur ses engagements qui pouvaient évoluer dans le temps.

"German history has viewed the Thirty Years War as an epoch of decline and collapse of all political order. However, this point of view needs correction, at least with respect to the Imperial Circles. The study shows the great relevance of the Imperial Circles for financing the war and for collaboration between belligerents over the course of the conflict"--

How did Scots live and change in the dying days of an independent kingdom?This essential history focuses on society and religious life in Reformation Scotland from 1470 to 1625. Now re-issued in the popular New History of Scotland series, with a contextual foreword by Keith Brown as tribute to the career of Jenny Wormald, who did so much to transform our understanding of early modern Scotland.The book traces the turbulent and often calamitous evolution of Scotland from medieval and feudal to the modern state. Whilst undergoing the transformation in religious life from Catholic to Protestant, Scotland also had to contend with a changing monarchy, war and government.This introductory text covers all the key events of the period including Scotland's alliances with France, treaties with the English and the Union of the Crowns. At the heart of the book is a detailed examination of the spiritual origins and secular effects of the Reformation as it transformed root and branch the older medieval structure of Scotland.

During the Thirty Years War, political theory was dominated by a negative attitude toward peace. War shaped the major works, such as Hugo Grotius’ De iure belli ac pacis. Researchers have largely ignored that there were also writings actively focused on peace, such as Nicolaus Schaffshausen’s De pace. This study examines these writings and explores the positive notions and concepts of peace that existed at that time. In der Politiktheorie zur Zeit des Dreißigjährigen Krieges dominierte ein negatives Friedensverständnis. Krieg prägte die prominenten Werke wie etwa Hugo Grotius‘ De iure belli ac pacis. Dass es aber auch Schriften gab, die den Frieden aktiv fokussierten, wie z.B. Nicolaus Schaffshausens De pace, ist der Forschung bislang entgangen. Hier setzt die Studie an und fragt danach, welche positiven Friedensvorstellungen und -konzepte damals existierten.

The grand thesis that the spirit of Protestantism is one of modern capitalism's great driving forces originated from Max Weber. According to him, religious foundations of inner world asceticism, Luther's concept of vocation, Calvinism, and English Puritanism had a direct influence on the development of modern kinds of economy. The thesis was not undisputed and to this day remains a prominent starting point for discussions. What can be said now in the twenty-first century about the spirit of capitalism? Do ethics still hold any sway over global financial markets and systems of production? This volume's four authors seek answers to these and other related questions from different perspectives.
