S. BAYNES, EDINBURGH ___________ 1825 As Published By Grace-eBooks.com 2015 Book II - Works of Augustus Toplady Calvinism XVI - The Judgment of the most eminent English Martyrs,... SECTION XVI. The Judgment of the most eminent English Martyrs, and Confesssors, who suffered Death, or Persecution, after the Overthrow of the Reformation by Queen Mary I. WE have seen in the three preceeding Sections, 1. That the reformers of the Church of England were zealous Calvinists, as to matters of doctrine: 2. That Calvin himself had a very considerable hand in reducing our liturgy to that purity and excellence which it still retains: and, 3. That Calvin, Beza, Zanchius, Sadeel, Bullinger, and Gualter, entertained very respectful and affectionate sentiments, concerning the ritual, decency and order, together with the episcopal regimen, of our incomparable Church. And, to the approbation of those most learned persons, might be added (if need required) that of many other foreign Calvinists, who are deservedly numbered among the first ornaments of that century. While pious king Edward lived, the Church of England saw herself at the very pinnacle of spiritual prosperity. Her supreme visible head was a prodigy of wisdom, knowledge, and undefiled religion. Her bishops were luminaries of the first brightness: men glowing with love to God; clear in the doctrines of the gospel, and zealous in maintaining them; of eminent learning, for the most part; assertors, and patterns, of every good word and work.

  • Antonio Magliabechi E Le Sue Note All'«Index Librorum Prohibitorum»1
    Alfonso Mirto Antonio Magliabechi e le sue note all’«Index Librorum Prohibitorum»1 1. Gli indici dei libri proibiti Paolo III Farnese2, con la bolla Licet ab initio del 21 luglio 1542, creava la Congregazione dell’Inquisizione, conferendo a sei cardinali poteri straordi- nari3. Tra i compiti da espletare vi era quello di stabilire quali libri erano da ritenersi leciti e quali quelli da proibire; dopo varie vicissitudini e dopo che in tanti luoghi erano stati predisposti elenchi di titoli da vietare, nel 1559 fu stampato il primo indice romano4, voluto da Paolo IV Carafa5. Questi era stato per anni inquisitore generale e ciò spiega il motivo che l’indice in questione fu più severo e l’unico stilato dall’Inquisizione romana. La sua struttura rima- se, nelle linee generali, immutata per oltre un secolo: i libri furono ordinati alfabeticamente e ripartiti in tre gruppi. Nel primo erano inseriti i testi degli autori non cattolici di cui si proibiva l’intera opera; seguiva un secondo gruppo di autori dei quali si proibiva solo una singola opera e, infine, i titoli anonimi. La rigidità di quest’Indice provocò molte rimostranze e il nuovo papa Pio IV Medici6, più moderato, incaricò alcuni vescovi, riuniti a Trento per la fase fi- nale del Concilio, di preparare un nuovo elenco che sostituisse quello paolino. L’Indice, chiamato tridentino, fu promulgato nel 1564 e, pur non mutando nella sostanza, cambiò nello spirito e nelle norme generali. L’Indice tridenti- no, proprio perché non compilato dagli inquisitori, non incontrò le difficoltà del precedente per essere accettato almeno negli Stati italiani.

The Ideology All rights reserved. © Conclusion INTRODUCTION1 Understanding the movement and the ideology la- belled Calvinism is a rather challenging topic. But none- theless it is an important topic to tackle. As important as any part of such an endeavour is deciding on a “plan of attack” in getting into the topic. The movement covered by this label “Calvinism” has spread out its tentacles all over the place and in many different, sometimes in conflicting directions. The logical starting place is with the person whose name has been attached to the label, although I’m quite sure he would be most uncomfortable with most of the content bearing his name.2 After exploring the history of John Calvin, we will take a look at a few of the more influential interpreters of Calvin over the subsequent centuries into the present day. This will open the door to attempt to explain the ideology of Calvinism with some of the distinctive terms and concepts associated exclusively with it. I. The Persons From the digging into the history of Calvinism, I have discovered one clear fact: Calvinism is a religious thinking in the 1500s of Switzerland when he lived and movement that goes well beyond John Calvin, in some worked.

  • Radical Reformation
    Radical Reformation The Radical Reformation represented a response to corruption both in the Catholic Church and in the expanding Magisterial Protestant movement led by Martin Luther and many others. Beginning in Germany and Switzerland in the 16th century, the Radical Reformation gave birth to many radical Protestant groups throughout Europe. The term covers radical reformers like Thomas Müntzer and Andreas Karlstadt, the Zwickau prophets, and Anabaptist groups like the Hutterites and the Mennonites. In Germany, Switzerland and Austria, a majority sympathized with the Radical Reformation despite intense persecution.[1] Although the surviving proportion of the European population that rebelled against Catholic, Lutheran and Zwinglian churches was small, Radical Reformers wrote profusely, and the literature on the Radical Reformation is disproportionately large, partly as a result of the proliferation of the Radical Reformation teachings in the United States.[2] Contents History Later forms of Anabaptism Non-Anabaptist Radical reformers Other movements Beliefs See also References Further reading External links History Some early forms of the Radical Reformation were millenarian, focusing on the imminent end of the world. This was particularly notable in the rule of John of Leiden over the city of Münster in 1535, which was ultimately crushed by the combined forces of the Catholic Bishop of Münster and the Lutheran Landgrave of Hesse.[3]After the Munster rebellion, the small group of the Batenburgers continued to adhere to militant Anabaptist

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION This publication stems from a broad project to explore the activ- ities of the French ambassadors in England during the 1560s, a period when French sources of English affairs have been relatively neglected, between the exceptionally well-preserved archives of the Noailles brothers in the 1550s and La Mothe Fénelon in the 1570s. Having published what remains of the despatches of the che- valier de Seure as ambassador to England in 1560–1561,1 I turned to the question of his successor, Paul de Foix, and quickly became con- vinced that he was one of the most interesting figures to represent his country in England during the sixteenth century. De Lamar Jensen described him as ‘that indomitable dynamo of energy and talent’.2 A highly respected scholar and religious liberal, he entered modern popular consciousness when played improbably as a typical swagger- ing French sword nobleman by the footballer turned actor Eric Cantona in Shekhar Kapur’s 1998 film Elizabeth. The portrait which is the frontispiece of this book underlines the difference. Paul de Foix occupied the post of French ambassador in England during a period of upheaval and transition in both countries, from early 1562 until the spring of 1566, a period which saw civil war in France, a war between England and France, intense insecurity in England over the succession, a protracted period of rapproche- ment involving bizarre marriage negotiations between Elizabeth and the court of France and, finally, deep preoccupation both in England and France with manoeuvres in Scotland around the future of Mary Stuart.3 De Foix’s correspondence is preserved only in frag- mentary form and yet, as it survives, provides important insights into the politics and culture of both countries.

Specific people, a majority of them women, were believed to threaten the world as servants of the Devil. In his De praestigiis daemonum, published in 1563, the Dutch / German physician Johan Wier argued that human beings were unable to perform witchcraft and that the women who were accused were innocent but often deluded by demons into believing that they were guilty. In his plea for tolerance Wier was inspired by his brother Matthias and the spiritualist prophet David Joris. In order to convince his read- ers he used their prejudices, that he himself rejected, about the power of demons and the intellectual capacities of women. Keywords JohanWier –De praestigiis daemonum – MatthiasWier – witchcraft – demonic power – tolerance In sixteenth-century Europe witchcraft was considered a major problem. Many learned theologians and magistrates believed that witches had concluded a pact with the devil to wreak havoc with his assistance.1 It should, however, be emphasised that this view was not adopted unimpaired.2 The spiritualist 1 The major analysis of this subject is without doubt the magisterial study of Stuart Clark, Thinking with Demons: The Idea of Witchcraft in Early Modern Europe (Oxford, 1997). 2 On this see Walter Stephens, Demon Lovers: Witchcraft, Sex, and the Crisis of Belief (Chicago, 2003).

  • Da Calvino Contro Calvino Celio Secondo Curione E Il De Amplitudine Beati Regni Dei Dialogi Sive Libri Duo
    DA CALVINO CONTRO CALVINO CELIO SECONDO CURIONE E IL DE AMPLITUDINE BEATI REGNI DEI DIALOGI SIVE LIBRI DUO LUCIA FELICI Il De amplitudine beati regni Dei dialogi sive libri duo, pubblicato da Celio Secondo Curione a seguito dell’esecuzione di Michele Serveto a Ginevra, segnò la sua rottura con Calvino. Una rottura traumatica, e destinata a non sanarsi, che allontanò definitivamente dal calvinismo un uomo che pure era stato tra i suoi sostenitori, sino a divenirne un efficace propagandista nella lotta contro Roma1.
