Calvin's 1559 Institutes is one of the most important works of theology that emerged at a pivotal time in Europe's history. As a movement, Calvinism has often been linked to the emerging features of modernity, especially to capitalism, rationalism, disenchantment, and the formation of the modern sovereign state. In this book, Michelle Sanchez argues that a closer reading of the 1559 Institutes recalls some of the tensions that marked Calvinism's emergence among refugees, and ultimately opens new ways to understand the more complex ethical and political legacy of Calvinism. In conversation with theorists of practice and signification, she advocates for reading the Institutes as a pedagogical text that places the reader in the world as the domain in which to actively pursue the 'knowledge of God and ourselves' through participatory uses of divine revelation. Through this lens, she reconceives Calvin's understanding of sovereignty and how it works in relation to the embodied reader. Sanchez also critically examines Calvin's teaching on providence and the incarnation in conversation with theorists of political theology and modernity who emphasize the importance of those very doctrines.

Après les 193 leçons sur le livre du prophète Jérémie (cf. Calvini opera denuo recognita, Series Exegetica 6a et 6b, 2016), Calvin paracheva son explication du prophète avec dix-huit leçons sur les Lamentationes de septembre 1562 à janvier 1563. Les Lamentations s'inscrivent dans l'une des traditions poétiques des qînoth, les complaintes qui concernent le gouvernement politique. Calvin s'attache à en donner une interprétation morale et actualisante. Les sources et les principes exégétiques du Réformateur restent les mêmes, mais la double introduction, au texte latin et au texte français, les rappelle. L'édition est en effet juxtalinéaire avec en vis-à-vis la traduction modernisée et commentée de Charles de Jonviller. Deux index des noms de personnes et des citations bibliques complètent l'édition.

Sebastian Castellio's Contra libellum Calvini belongs – together with the De haereticis, an sint persequendi – to his most important contribution to the toleration controversy that began after the Spaniard Michael Servetus was arrested and burnt at the stake in Geneva for heresy. Castellio wrote this work in the summer 1554 in Basle as an answer to Calvin’s Defensio orthodoxae fidei. It was written as a dialogue between Calvin and "Vaticanus" (Castellio). In this work we get to know the Basle humanist as an angry, passionate debater who attacks Calvin's faults and weaknesses, his theology and activity in Geneva with arguments full of irony and biting scorn. Here we find the famous sentence "to kill a man is not to defend a doctrine, but is to kill a man". This work was first published in 1612 in the Netherlands by the humanist Reinier Telle. Uwe Plath’s critical edition is not only a reproduction of the Telle text, it also includes the text of the Basle Autograph- fragment and attempts to give a readable, error-free text, as close as possible to Castellio’s original.
