Not illustrated. 1913 edition. Excerpt: ...to the Basle Confession. Complaint was made at the Evangelical Diet, July, 1729, against him that he intended topublish a new edition of the New Testament that inclined to Socinianism. In October, 1729, the Basle authorities ordered his room to be searched for the manuscript, but they found nothing. By February he gave them part of it--up to Matthew 2: 12. On May 13, 1730, the council, in spite of the protest of his congregation, dismissed him from office. Viewed from the standpoint of to-day, the trial was, in many ways, unworthy of so great a man in what is now granted by criticism, yet he laid himself open by careless actions to charges against his orthodoxy. He left Basle for Amsterdam. There a new field was opening for him in 1731. Professor Clericus, of the Remonstrant or Arminian Theological Seminary there, was retired, and Wettstein was offered his place, but on condition that he would clear himself of the charge of heresy. So he went back to Basle (1731) to get a clear dismissal. There he defended himself before both councils, and was readmitted to its ministry, March 22, 1732. By this time the pastors had withdrawn their opposition, and only Professors Frey and Iselin were his.enemies. He wanted to be made professor of Hebrew, but the continued opposition of Frey and Iselin made it impossible. The council also recalled the permission to preach given in 1732. So he left Basle, went to Amsterdam, and, in 1736, was elected the successor of Le Clerc or Clericus. In 174.4, as most of his old enemies had died and the opposition to him passed away, Basle elected him professor of Greek. But the Remonstrants in Holland had been so kind to him that he declined it and remained with them. In 1745, when he revisited Basle to see his aged...

Recently scholars have become increasingly aware of Zurich's role as an intellectual and cultural centre of the European Reformation. This study focuses on a little-known aspect of the Zurich church's international activity: its relationship with Italian-speaking evangelicals during the period 1540-1620. The work assesses the importance of Zwinglian influences within the early Italian evangelical movement and Zurich's contribution to the spread of the Reformation in Italian-speaking territories such as Locarno and southern Graubünden. It shows how, following the establishment of the Roman Inquisition in July 1542, senior Zurich churchmen emerged as important points of contact for Italian reformers in exile. A central concern of the study is the threat to the integrity of the Zwinglian settlement posed by religious radicals within the Italian exile community. Although the radicals were relatively few in number, their activities had a profound influence on the way in which the community as a whole came to be perceived by the Swiss and other Reformed churches. In Zurich, the turning point was a series of doctrinal disputes during the mid-sixteenth century, which culminated in the dissolution of the city's Italian church in November 1563. The alliance forged in the course of those disputes between the leadership of the Zurich church and theologically conservative Italian exiles became the basis for close co-operation in subsequent decades. Drawing heavily on unpublished sources from Swiss archives, the volume sheds light on the processes by which the boundaries of Reformed orthodoxy came to be defined. In particular, it demonstrates the importance of theological controversy and polemic as catalysts for the systematisation of doctrine during this period.

This volume collects papers initially written as the plenary addresses for the largest international scholarly conference held in connection with the 500th anniversary of Calvin's birth, organized in Geneva by the Institute of Reformation History. The organizers chose as theme for the conference ''Calvin and His Influence 1509-2009,'' hoping to stimulate reflection about what Calvin's ideas and example have meant across the five centuries since his lifetime, as well as about how much validity the classic interpretations that have linked his legacy to fundamental features of modernity such as democracy, capitalism, or science still retain.

Richard Muller, a world-class scholar of the Reformation era, examines the relationship of Calvin's theology to the Reformed tradition, indicating Calvin's place in the tradition as one of several significant second-generation formulators. Muller argues that the Reformed tradition is a diverse and variegated movement not suitably described either as founded solely on the thought of John Calvin or as a reaction to or deviation from Calvin, thereby setting aside the old "Calvin and the Calvinists" approach in favor of a more integral and representative perspective. Muller offers historical corrective and nuance on topics of current interest in Reformed theology, such as limited atonement/universalism, union with Christ, and the order of salvation.
