Title: Later Calvinism International Perspectives (Sixteenth Century Essays and Studies)
Description: This volume presents the evolution of Calvin's ideas in the latter part of the sixteenth and early part of the seventeenth centuries along national lines. Calvin's influence is traced in Switzerland, France, Scotland, the Rhinelands, Holland, and England. As John Leith points out in his Foreword, this book enables many American Protestants to understand their history, how they came to believe what they do, how scholastic theology of the nineteenth century is firmly rooted in later Calvinism. - Publisher.
