Dans le royaume de France à l’écrasante majorité catholique et gouverné par un roi « très chrétien » que le sacre, en en faisant le lieutenant de Dieu sur terre, rend comptable du salut de ses sujets, la question des rapports entre protestantisme et justice est particulièrement cruciale. Du xvie au xviiie siècle la justice royale a évolué : au xvie, l’hérésie, prise en main par la justice royale, apparaît comme un crime abominable et doit être réprimée ; mais il faut aussi rétablir la paix dans le royaume déchiré par les premières guerres de religion et la justice est un des instruments qui y contribuent. Au xviie siècle, alors que la paix religieuse règne en principe depuis l’édit de Nantes, le pouvoir n’a pas perdu l’espoir de convertir les réformés, rétablissant ainsi l’unité spirituelle du royaume. Les moyens pour atteindre ce but sont divers, la législation en fait partie et les procès se multiplient à l’encontre des réformés. Après la Révocation, la justice royale pour laquelle il n’existe plus de protestants mais seulement des « sujets rebelles », s’active à les poursuivre de toutes les manières possibles. Mais ce volume ne se contente pas de faire la chronique de la répression judiciaire au service de la paix ou de l’unification religieuse du royaume. Il explore également le regard particulier sur la justice que peuvent avoir les protestants ; c’est ainsi que les récits de martyres et de massacres remettent en quelque sorte en cause le pouvoir royal, et que la littérature, en dressant un tableau de la situation des protestants et donc de la justice qui s’applique à eux, produit une « justice fictionnelle » au service de la cause réformée. Il s’interroge également sur le rôle des gens de justice nombreux dans certaines Églises réformées et qui ont pu jouer un rôle important de défense des droits de leurs coreligionnaires. Il importe enfin de replacer la question dans l’histoire plus globale de…

This work examines how and under what circumstances past commemorations have occurred. In Germany these stretch back to the Reformationsjubiläum of 1617. Many other celebrations have followed, including those marking the anniversaries of Luther's birth (in 1483) and death (in 1546).

Guillaume Farel (1489-1565) was one of the key figures in the early Genevan reformation, but his legacy has become largely overshadowed by towering figure of Calvin. Seeking to contribute to a better understanding of the French-speaking reform movement, this volume offers a rich portrait of Farel's early thought by way of interpretive essays and translations of primary source texts. The translations of the second half of the volume are some of the first widely-accessible full-length translations of Farel's work into English.

"Among a wide spectrum of American Protestants, the horrors of World War II triggered grave concern for Europe's religious future. They promptly mobilised resources to revive Europe's Christian foundation. 'Saving the Overlooked Continent' reconstructs this surprising redirection of Western missions. For the first time, Europe became the recipient of America's missionary enterprise. The American missionary impulse matched the military, economic, and political programs of the U.S., all of which positioned the United States to become Europe's dominant partner and point of cultural reference. One result was the importation of the internal conflicts that vexed American Protestants - theological tensions between modernists and traditionalists, and organisational competition between established churches and independent parachurch associations. Europe was offered a new slate of options that sparked civic and ecclesiastical responses. But behind these contending religious networks lay a considerable overlap of goals and means based on a shared missionary trajectory. By the mid-1960s, most Protestant American agencies admitted that the expectation of a religious revival had been too optimistic despite their initiatives having led to an integration of Europe in the global evangelical network. The agencies reconsidered their assumptions and redefined their strategies. The initial opposition between inclusive and exclusive approaches abated, and the path opened to a sustained cooperation among once-fierce opponents"--Page 4 of cover.

Five hundred years ago a monk nailed his theses to a church gate in Wittenberg. The sound of Luther’s mythical hammer, however, was by no means the only aural manifestation of the religious Reformations.This book describes the birth of Lutheran Chorales and Calvinist Psalmody; of how music was practised by Catholic nuns, Lutheran schoolchildren, battling Huguenots, missionaries and martyrs, cardinals at Trent and heretics in hiding, at a time when Palestrina, Lasso and Tallis were composing their masterpieces, and forbidden songs were concealed, smuggled and sung in taverns and princely courts alike.Music expressed faith in the Evangelicals’ emerging worships and in the Catholics’ ancient rites; through it new beliefs were spread and heresy countered; analysed by humanist theorists, it comforted and consoled miners, housewives and persecuted preachers; it was both the symbol of new, conflicting identities and the only surviving trace of a lost unity of faith.The music of the Reformations, thus, was music reformed, music reforming and the reform of music: this book shows what the Reformations sounded like, and how music became one of the protagonists in the religious conflicts of the sixteenth century.
