The Legacy of Servetus: Humanism and the Beginning of Change of the Social Paradigm. on the Occasion of 450Th Anniversary of His Martyrdom
The Legacy of Servetus: Humanism and the Beginning of Change of the Social Paradigm. On the Occasion of 450th Anniversary of His Martyrdom Marian Hillar Center for Philosophy and Socinian Studies Published in A Journal from The Radical Reformation, A Testimony to Biblical Unitarianism, Volume 11, No. 2, 2003, pp. 34-41. Michael Servetus occupies a unique place in the annals of European history. He was a lonely scholar and a bold mind who left two great legacies.1 In the realm of intellectual inquiry he demanded a radical reevaluation of the entire ideological religious system of assertions and dogmas imposed on Western Europe since the fourth century. Servetus's theological inquiry initiated the study of scriptural tradition in an attempt to uncover the real religious doctrines contained in it. On the moral societal level Servetus demanded freedom of intellectual inquiry, thought, conscience, and expression that was denied to millions on doctrinal theological grounds. By his sacrifice Servetus set into motion a process of change in the entire social paradigm and recovery of the right to freedom of conscience. Establishment of an ecclesiastical paradigm. Servetus’s role as a central figure in history who initiated the process of recovering the social humanistic paradigm becomes obvious if we put it in a historical perspective. Greco-Roman pre-Christian society enjoyed toleration, freedom of religion, of conscience, and of thought. Ancient religions never demanded conversion. The ancient western world did not have the concept of "heresy" or "heretic." This was due to the lack of a state religion and state sanctioned theological doctrine, though the people and the centers of power were highly religious. -

Writing the history of historiography is a tricky business. There is no unbiased way of doing it, and it can serve different goals that at best complement and at worst contradict each other. The genre can seem both suitable to promote one’s own academic agenda and to reflect upon one’s own ideological constraints, epistemological presumptions, and social aspirations. This article analyses the motivations and methods of recent authors in the field, and it does so principally by focusing on the roles they attribute to historians past and present. To enable comparisons, the article includes works with a national, European and global framework, on early modern and late modern historiography, by intellectual, cultural and post-colonialist historians. A general conclusion will be that while most publications use the genre to pursue academic interests with epistemic arguments, only few try to exploit its potential for critical self-reflexion. As a consequence, they tend to be of limited credibility and originality when it comes to describing historiography’s functions and historians’ roles. -
Michael Servetus : Champion of Humanism and Freedom of Conscience
1 Michael Servetus : Champion of Humanism and Freedom of Conscience Marian Hillar Center for Philosophy and Socinian Studies Believing with you that religion is a matter which lies solely between man and his God, that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship, that the legislative powers of government reach actions only, and not opinions, I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should „make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,‟ thus building a wall of separation between Church and State. Thomas Jefferson, 1 January 1802 Letter of reply to the Danbury Association The Genius of Servetus There is no figure in the history of ideas who would match the breadth and scope of Michael Servetus's outlook and importance for the evolution of culture in Western Europe. He was a lonely scholar and a bold mind who brought together what was best in the cultural renewal of the Renaissance and in the attempt at the moral renewal programmed by those who came to be called Radical Reformers. He discovered through the study of the bible, which was made possible by the Reformation trends that its truth contrasted with official Christian practice and official doctrinal formulations. He saw that Christianity was corrupt morally and 2 ideologically, and, inspired by the rising spirit of the reform, he envisioned a plan to restore Christianity to its original simplicity and integrity as suggested by Erasmus. The genius of Michael Servetus extends to many fields of human endeavor: jurisprudence, mathematics, geography, astrology, philosophy, medicine, theology, and biblical criticism. -

SEBASTIAN CASTELLIO AND HIS 'DE HAERETICIS A CIVIL! MAGISTRATU NON PUNIENDIS ... LIBELLUS'' by Marius Valkhoff (University of the Witwatersrand) 'In one page of the writings of Castellio I find more· tmth, more piety and more edification than in all the· books of Calvin and Beza'. DIRCK COORNHERTl I Nowadays everyone knows of the sensational discoveries of the Dead Sea scrolls and their considerable importance, probably the greatest discovery of this half century in the field of philology. But in this same period other finds have been made which, although they are less spectacular, present a special interest, because· of the new light they throw on a problem or a person, or even on several prob lems and several persons. One day in 1938 Professor Bruno Becker (Amsterdam University), a distin guished specialist in the history of ideas of the 16th century and the conscientious ~ editor of the W ellevenskunste by Dirck Coornhert, the Dutch 'Montaigne', was. browsing in the small church library of the Remonstrant Community in Rotter dam. He was looking for the works of spiritualist and liberal thinkers of the time of the Reformation, which one might encounter in the archives of this Latitudinarian denomination. At a certain moment he picked up a double· manuscript (one text in Latin, the other in French), of which the Latin version was signed by the writer as Basilius Montfortius. It had been attributed by the authors of the printed catalogue to Celio Secondo Curione. When he started reading the Latin text, Becker at once recognized the handwriting of Sebastian Castellio and noticed that this unknown manuscript was the last word in a famous controversy between John Calvin and Theodore Beza on the one hand,. -
Heinrich Bullinger, Political Covenantalism and Vermigli's
Heinrich Bullinger, political covenantalism and Vermigli’s commentary on Judges Andries Raath Department of Constitutional Law and Philosophy of Law University of the Free State BLOEMFONTEIN E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Heinrich Bullinger, political covenantalism and Vermigli’s commentary on Judges The Zurich political federalists under the leadership of Heinrich Bullinger had a number of important views in common: firstly, they subscribed to the ideal of the covenanted nation under God; secondly, they maintained the view that magistrates and their subjects have a covenantal calling to live according to God’s law; thirdly, the binding together (consolidation) of the covenanted Christian polity by means of the oath; fourthly, the right to resistance when the conditions of the covenant are broken; fifthly, the offices of magistrates and pastors are mutually to assist one another in maintaining and furthering the conditions and requirements of the Biblical covenant in the consolidated Christian community. Vermigli used these principles, together with the Chrysostomian and Lutheran views on magisterial office, to develop an influential theory of theologico-political federalism in the Reformational tradition. Opsomming Heinrich Bullinger, politieke verbondsluiting en Vermigli se kommentaar op die boek Rigters Die politieke federaliste onder die leierskap van Heinrich Bullinger het ’n aantal belangrike gesigspunte in gemeen gehad: eerstens het hulle die ideaal van die nasie as ’n saamgebinde verbondseenheid onderskryf; tweedens -
Tegli Inglese Mordeglia
Caterina Mordeglia Silvestro Tegli and the first Latin translation of Machiavelli’s Il Principe Abstract : Although Agostino Nifo produced a Latin reworking of Il Principe before Machiavelli’s treatise saw print, the first proper Latin translation was not completed until 1560. Commissioned by the publisher Pietro Perna, it was carried out by the Reformed Umbrian exile Silvestro Tegli and published in Basle as a work of politico-religious Reformist propaganda. The translation was essentially faithful to the original, except for the omission of some passages whose content was too compromising and a stylistic reworking marked by the use of rhetorical amplificatio , as was typical of literary prose in the sixteenth century. With its 14 republications and re-printings in the space of 60 years, it helped spread Machiavelli’s text throughout Europe, and its fame was only surpassed by Hermann Conring’s Latin translation published in 1660, which however largely recast the original for ideological reasons. Before looking more closely at the first Latin version of Machiavelli’s Il Principe , I think it is best to start with some background. Machiavelli’s celebrated political treatise, which since its first appearance has enjoyed a level of diffusion and fame (for good or ill) that even surpasses Dante’s Divine Comedy , was given a Latin version even before it was printed. But that is precisely what it was: a version, and not a translation in the strict sense of the word. As we know 1, in March 1523 in Naples the philosopher Agostino Nifo, famous primarily for his commentaries on Aristotle 2, published an essay in Latin entitled De regnandi peritia , an example of the genre of specula principis which was very common during the Renaissance humanist period. -
Generational Conºict in the Late Reformation
Journal of Interdisciplinary History, xxxii:2 (Autumn, 2001), 217–242. GENERATIONAL CONFLICT IN THE REFORMATION Amy Nelson Burnett Generational Conºict in the Late Reformation: The Basel Paroxysm Since the tumultuous 1960s, social scientists have been fascinated by the theme of generational conºict. Building on the theoretical structure ªrst proposed by Mannheim in the 1920s, developmental and social psychologists and sociologists have examined a wide range of questions related to generational change, youth movements, and life-cycle course. Historians, too, have applied Mannheim’s insights to the past, fol- lowing the example of Mannheim himself, who explained the nineteenth-century struggle between conservative and liberal val- ues in Germany in terms of generational identity.1 The application of generational theory to history is not with- out its critics, but even those who have expressed reservations about the methodology still acknowledge that Mannheim’s con- cept of social generations provides a useful analytical tool for un- derstanding historical change. The concentration, particularly during the late 1960s and early 1970s, on youth movements and the generation gap has meant that generational analysis has focused on modern history and the fairly recent past. The twentieth cen- tury, in particular, seems tailor-made for generational analysis, given the number and frequency of major life-shaping events, moving from ªn-de-siècle Europe through World War I, the Great Depression, World War II, and the Cold War, and culmi- nating in the student protests of the Vietnam era, which some Amy Nelson Burnett is Associate Professor of History, University of Nebraska, Lincoln.

A. Quaranta, Umanesimo Medico E Culture Confessionali Nell’Europa Del Cinquecento
www.giornaledistoria.net – Alessandra Quaranta, Umanesimo medico e culture confessionali nell’europa del Cinquecento. Carteggi inediti (1560-1587) di Girolamo Donzellini, “Physicus et Philosophus” UMANESIMO MEDICO E CULTURE CONFESSIONALI NELL’EUROPA DEL CINQUECENTO. CARTEGGI INEDITI (1560-1587) DI GIROLAMO DONZELLINI, “PHYSICUS ET PHILOSOPHUS” di Alessandra Quaranta 1. Il ruolo di Girolamo Donzellini nel movimento eterodosso veneto Il 5 ottobre 1585, due anni prima di morire, il medico bresciano Girolamo Donzellini, in una lettera indirizzata al suo amico e collega Ioachim Camerarius il Giovane di Norimberga, annotava che Dio “non permette che noi siamo afflitti oltre quanto possiamo tollerare”.1 Esprimendo un tentativo di autoconsolazione, tali parole potrebbero riferirsi alle drammatiche vicende che Donzellini aveva vissuto in prima persona negli anni 1575-1576, quando si abbatté su Venezia una terribile epidemia di peste, e vorrebbero trovare un senso a quelle non meno tormentate che il medico stesso aveva affrontato sul piano personale, professionale e confessionale. Il breve sintagma appena citato richiama a sua volta un passo della lettera del 10 marzo 1566, indirizzata ancora a Camerarius in occasione della morte della moglie di Hierolamus Herold,2 archiatra lipsiense attivo a Norimberga,3 e amico di Donzellini. Con queste parole, infatti, quest’ultimo commentava il lutto che aveva colpito il collega tedesco: «Ma al vero cristiano non accade nulla di intollerabile. Soltanto il Signore sia il nostro Dio. Tutte le altre cose sono da considerare con indifferenza».4 Tale osservazione, richiamata da altre simili sparse nell’epistolario di Girolamo Donzellini, esprime una visione consolatoria e ottimistica della morte, sulla quale avremo modo di tornare nel corso dell’articolo. -

In subsequent chapters Overell delineates the essential features of this intriguing connection, sealed by the trials and tribulations of such well-known exiles as Bernardino Ochino, Peter Martyr Vermigli, Emmanuel Tremellius, Giacomo Aconcio, or of less known but influential figures like Giovanni Battista Castiglione, Princess Elizabeth’s Italian teacher, Pietro Vanni, Latin secretary to King Henry VIII, Guido Giannetti, royal informant on Italian affairs, and many others. The book also sheds much-needed new light on our understanding of Marian reCatholicisation led by Cardinal Reginald Pole, English by birth but once prominent among Italy’s spirituali.
