Présentation de l'éditeur
Chapter I. THE HERALDS OF PROTESTANTISM. 1. The Reformation, like all great historical movements, was of slow and unattractive development. Long in coming into notice, it was equally long in finding its champions. The cause was waiting for its men, and when the need was supreme they appeared, with heroic spirit, great organizing genius, and amazing power of endurance. Protestantism was an oak of young and vigorous growth in the first quarter of the 16th century, but its roots lay deep in the soil of the 14th. haJR efprmation possessed two characteristics one national, with all the individuality that might be expected of race and land; the other cosmopolitan, having general fibre and color, always the same, whatever the country or people, from Norway to the A lps, and from Transylvania to the Bay of Biscay. The Reformation has proved to be the chief turning-point in modem history. It is that great religious and intellectual revolution which marks the fboundary-line between the Middle A ges and the Modf ern Period. The call for regeneration was deep and loud. Superstition had become interwoven with the I pure doctrine of the Gospel.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the history of the Protestant Reformation, a religious movement that began in the 16th century and led to the establishment of Protestantism, a new movement in Christianity separate from the Catholic Church. The author provides an overview of the events that led to the Reformation, the key figures involved, and the major ideas that shaped the movement. The book places particular significance on the role of Martin Luther, the German monk whose challenge to papal authority sparked the movement, and his Ninety-Five Theses, a document that outlined the key differences between Protestantism and Catholicism. The text covers the broader historical context of the Reformation, including the political and social upheaval of the time, the schisms within the Catholic Church, and the rise of humanism and the Renaissance, which contributed to the intellectual and cultural climate that allowed for the Reformation to take hold. The author also examines the spread of Protestantism to various countries and regions and the impact it had on European society and politics, including the religious wars that it sparked. An essential read for anyone seeking a comprehensive overview of the Protestant Reformation, this book offers valuable insights into the historical, theological, and social forces that shaped one of the most significant religious movements in Christianity. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
