Reformation Thought Praise for previous editions: "Theologically
informed, lucid, supremely accessible: no wonder McGrath's
introduction to the Reformation has staying power!" --Denis R.
Janz, Loyola University "Vigorous, brisk, and highly stimulating.
The reader will be thoroughly engaged from the outset, and
considerably enlightened at the end." --Dr. John Platt, Oxford
University "[McGrath] is one of the best scholars and teachers of
the Reformation... Teachers will rejoice in this wonderfully useful
book." --Teaching History Reformation Thought: An Introduction is a
clear, engaging, and accessible introduction to the European
Reformation of the sixteenth century. Written for readers with
little to no knowledge of Christian theology or history, this
indispensable guide surveys the ideas of the prominent thought
leaders of the period, as well as its many movements, including
Lutheranism, Calvinism, Anabaptism, and the Catholic and English
Reformations. The text offers readers a framework to interpret the
events of the Reformation in full view of the intellectual
landscape and socio-political issues that fueled its development.
Based on Alister McGrath's acclaimed lecture course at Oxford
University, the fully updated fifth edition incorporates the latest
academic research in historical theology. Revised and expanded
chapters describe the cultural backdrop of the Reformation, discuss
the Reformation's background in late Renaissance humanism and
medieval scholasticism, and distill the findings of recent
scholarship, including work on the history of the Christian
doctrine of justification. A wealth of pedagogical
features--including illustrations, updated bibliographies, a
glossary, a chronology of political and historical ideas, and
several appendices--supplement McGrath's clear explanations.
Written by a world-renowned theologian, Reformation Thought: An
Introduction, Fifth Edition upholds its reputation as the ideal
resource for university and seminary courses on Reformation thought
and the widespread change it inspired in Christian belief and
practice.
