Description

To understand the great theologians of the past, we must understand the circumstances that formed them. In the newest volume of the Reformed Historical Theological Studies series, Martin I. Klauber and his troupe of capable historians survey the history and doctrine of the French Reformation. This volume provides a quality introduction to French Reformed theology that will help readers grasp the political and ecclesiological climate in which Reformed like giants John Calvin and Theodore Beza wrote.

 

Review

“Taken together, the three volumes provide a significant contribution to the history of French Protestant thought from the early Reformation through the Huguenot diaspora of the eighteenth century. The theologians examined, although only a selection, provide an introduction to major issues and themes of French Protestant thought and its distinctive characteristics within the larger Reformed tradition.”–Richard Muller in the foreword

From the Back Cover

Martin I. Klauber and his troupe of capable historians survey the tumultuous era of the first three generations of French Protestantism. The first part of the book provides historical context, including chapters on the national synods of the French Reformed churches, the wars of religion, the St. Bartholomew’s Day Massacre, the conversion of Henry IV, and the political views of the French Monarchomachs. The second part of the book takes a closer look at the lives and contributions of leading French reformers like Guillaume Farel, Nicolas des Gallers, John Calvin, Sebastian Castellio, Peter Ramus, Antoine de Chandieu, Simon Goulart, Theodore Beza, Pierre Viret, and Philippe du Plessis-Mornay. This collection provides a quality introduction to French Reformed theology in the sixteenth century.
