Description: "The deep impact of sixteenth-century religion on European society can still be felt in our own time. In this profound but lively study the movements inspired by Luther, Zwingli and Calvin are described with the mastery which the author's previous works in the field -- especially "The Eighth Reformation" -- have led us to expect. Other important influences, such as the Radicals, receive equally stimulating treatment, and the numerous illustrations from contemporary sources will help to create a vivid picture of the Reformation as a whole, against its social, political and intellectual background."
