Résumé : | This volume is designed specifically for the general educated reader. It presents the great figures of the Reformation: Luther, Zwingli, Calvin, Knox, and Cranmer. It recounts significant events like the Diet of Worms, the establishment of the Holy Commonwealth of Geneva, Henry VIII’s break with Rome, and William the Silent’s fight for Dutch independence. It also explores the major doctrines that emerged or were solidified during the Protestant revolt: justification by faith, predestination, the priesthood of all believers, the authority of Scripture over ecclesiastical decrees, freedom of conscience, and the separation of church and state. Figures, events, and doctrines are seamlessly woven into the compelling narrative of a dynamic movement that began in the sixteenth century, spreading from its origins in Germany and Switzerland to influence northern and western Europe. |
